0–100, higher is better. How it is calculated

Český magazín is a Czech-language online media publication established in 2015, offering news and lifestyle content across various categories such as finance, health, auto, and housing. The website targets a general Czech-speaking audience interested in current affairs and lifestyle topics. The business model appears to be advertising-supported, leveraging content to attract readership. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with common plugins and uses modern web technologies including Google Fonts, FontAwesome, and jQuery. The site is mobile-optimized and uses HTTPS, but lacks some advanced security headers and explicit privacy and cookie policies, indicating room for compliance improvement. Security posture is moderate with no visible vulnerabilities but missing some best practices. Overall, the site is professional and trustworthy but could enhance privacy compliance and security transparency.

This scan rated NIS2 with an earlier keyword method that is no longer shown; rescan for the per-article view. Risk management, continuity, supply chain, training, MFA, management oversight (Art. 20) and incident reporting (Art. 23) need internal evidence, and Guard cannot tell whether NIS2 applies to this organisation.

GDPR is indicative only, based on publicly visible signals: Articles 7, 12, 13 and 32 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive. Not a certification or legal assessment.

Priority findings

11 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

  2. Security headers

    Security headers are instructions your web server sends to every visitor’s browser. Missing ones leave visitors more exposed to attacks such as clickjacking and injected scripts.

    • High

      Missing Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • High

      Missing Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

Results by check

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.

How this score is calculated

The security score runs 0–100, higher is better. It is the plain average of the security checks that completed in this scan, each counted equally. A check that could not run is left out: it counts neither as a pass nor as a fail.

Not counted

  • NIS2 outside view: Re-weights evidence from the TLS, email, DNS, network and hygiene checks, so counting it would count that evidence twice. Shown on its own.
  • OffSeq Observations: An AI reading of the site, useful context but not reproducible evidence. Shown on its own.

Findings that cap the score at 49

Each of these is serious on its own, so while any is present the site cannot rate better than high risk, however good the other checks are.

  • The certificate is not trusted by browsers
  • The website is not served over HTTPS
  • A database, remote desktop, file-sharing or Telnet service is reachable from the internet
  • The page loads a script from a compromised source
  • The domain registration has expired
  • SPF authorises every server to send mail as the domain

Partial scans

When the site blocks Guard or most checks cannot run, the score covers only the checks that ran (usually DNS and email), is capped at 75 and is shown as partial, without a risk level.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

The website operates in the media sector, providing diverse content to a broad audience in the Czech Republic. It maintains a consistent brand presence with regular content updates and structured data for SEO. The business leverages Google Analytics and Facebook SDK for user tracking and marketing. There is no evidence of physical office locations or phone contacts, which is common for online media outlets. The domain age and registration details support legitimacy. The site’s revenue likely depends on advertising and sponsored content. No partnerships or subsidiaries are evident from the data.

Security posture

The site uses HTTPS and asynchronous loading of analytics scripts, which is positive. However, it lacks visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and others that enhance protection against common web attacks. No security or incident response policies are published, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file is present. Forms are minimal and standard, with no sensitive data exposure detected. The absence of cookie consent mechanisms and privacy policies indicates GDPR compliance gaps. Overall, security maturity is moderate but could be improved with better policies and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with explicit GDPR compliance and consent mechanisms.
  2. Implement security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to enhance web security.
  3. Add a security.txt file and vulnerability disclosure policy to improve transparency and incident response readiness.
  4. Provide clear and verified contact information including phone numbers and physical addresses if applicable.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and plugins for vulnerabilities and update them promptly.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with Elementor and Penci Recipe plugins, using jQuery and FontAwesome for UI elements. It loads Google Fonts and analytics scripts asynchronously, which aids performance. The site is mobile-optimized and uses structured data (JSON-LD) for SEO. Performance is moderate, with some preloading of fonts and images. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. No advanced hosting or CDN details are evident. The site lacks some modern security headers and privacy compliance features, which are technical debt areas. Overall, the technical infrastructure is standard for a small to medium online media site.
Standards and sources

Reference chips under each finding point to the standard, regulation or specification the finding relates to. They are taken from the official datasets below and mapped conservatively: a finding with no defensible link shows none. NIS2 and GDPR references mark where a finding is relevant evidence, not a compliance verdict. Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690 binds digital infrastructure and digital service providers; for other entities it is the most detailed public reading of the Article 21 measures. WCAG, EN 301 549, European Accessibility Act and Web Accessibility Directive references name the requirement an automated accessibility rule relates to; they are not a conformance verdict.
