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

CHAPS spol. s r.o. is a Czech IT company specializing in the development, maintenance, and operation of software applications and systems primarily for the personal transportation sector, including rail and road transport. Established in 1997, the company holds a solid market position supported by partnerships with major transportation entities such as České dráhy and regional public transport companies. Their business model focuses on B2B software solutions, including timetable data management and ticketing systems. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with clear business information and active social media presence. Technically, the website employs legacy JavaScript libraries like jQuery 1.9.1 and jQuery UI, indicating potential modernization opportunities. The site is moderately optimized for performance and mobile devices but lacks advanced accessibility features. SEO practices are adequately implemented with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Hosting and domain registration are consistent with the company's history and location. From a security perspective, the site lacks visible security headers and cookie consent mechanisms, which are important for GDPR compliance and overall security posture. The use of outdated JavaScript libraries may expose the site to vulnerabilities. No forms or sensitive data exposure were detected on the homepage, reducing immediate risk. The domain's WHOIS data aligns well with the business claims, supporting legitimacy. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could benefit from enhancements in headers, consent management, and library updates. The overall risk assessment is low with no critical issues detected. Strategic recommendations include implementing security headers, updating JavaScript libraries, adding cookie consent banners, and publishing security and incident response policies to enhance trust and compliance. These steps will improve the company's digital maturity and security resilience while maintaining its strong market credibility.

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

10 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"

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

CHAPS operates in the niche market of IT solutions for personal transportation, leveraging long-term domain ownership and partnerships with key Czech transport organizations. Their competitive advantage lies in specialized software tailored for rail and road transport, including timetable and ticketing systems. The business model is B2B focused, targeting transport operators and municipalities. Revenue streams likely include software licensing, maintenance contracts, and data updates. The partnership ecosystem includes major transport companies and media outlets, enhancing market reach and credibility. Growth indicators include regular updates to timetable data and active social media engagement. Strategic observations suggest opportunities for digital modernization and enhanced security compliance to maintain competitive edge.

Security posture

The current security maturity level is moderate. The website uses HTTPS (assumed but not explicitly confirmed), but lacks important security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options. The use of outdated JavaScript libraries like jQuery 1.9.1 presents potential vulnerabilities. No incident response or security policy information is published, and no dedicated security contact channels are provided. GDPR compliance is partially addressed via a privacy policy but lacks cookie consent mechanisms. No visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. The security culture appears basic, with room for improvement in transparency and technical safeguards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Upgrade JavaScript libraries to current stable versions to reduce vulnerability exposure.
  3. Add a cookie consent banner to comply fully with GDPR and enhance user privacy transparency.
  4. Publish a formal security policy and incident response contact information to improve trust and readiness.
  5. Conduct regular security audits and penetration testing to proactively identify and remediate risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website infrastructure is based on traditional web technologies including HTML, CSS, and JavaScript with jQuery 1.9.1 and jQuery UI libraries. No modern frameworks or CMS platforms were detected, indicating a custom-built site. Performance is moderate with basic mobile optimization and accessibility features. SEO is supported by meta tags and Open Graph data but lacks structured data markup. Hosting details are limited but domain registration is stable and longstanding. Technical debt is suggested by use of outdated libraries and absence of advanced security headers. Modernization opportunities include updating the tech stack, improving mobile responsiveness, and implementing accessibility standards to enhance user experience and security.
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.
