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

Chodovské technicko-ekologické služby s.r.o. is a municipal service company founded in 2000 by the city of Chodov, Czech Republic. It specializes in communal services including waste collection, public lighting operation, road maintenance, and environmental management. The company holds a strong regional position as a trusted partner for local government and residents, offering a broad range of public utility services. The website reflects a professional municipal service provider with clear service offerings and local community focus. Technically, the website employs modern JavaScript libraries and frameworks such as jQuery, Leaflet, and the Nette framework, providing a responsive and user-friendly experience. The site includes GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanisms and links to a comprehensive privacy policy document. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced and email obfuscation implemented, though the absence of visible HTTP security headers and incident response contacts suggests room for improvement. The lack of WHOIS data reduces domain trustworthiness, but the overall business credibility remains high due to consistent branding, certifications, and official partner links. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing incident response contacts, and improving WHOIS transparency to strengthen trust and compliance.

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

9 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

  2. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  3. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • Critical

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  4. 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 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 company operates as an essential government sector entity providing critical municipal services in the Chodov region. Its business model is focused on servicing local government needs with a comprehensive portfolio of environmental and infrastructure maintenance services. The company benefits from partnerships with municipal authorities and environmental organizations, enhancing its service delivery and compliance. The website's content and structure indicate a stable medium-sized enterprise with a clear target audience of local residents and municipal stakeholders. The presence of EU co-financing and TÜV SÜD certification signals adherence to quality and regulatory standards. Growth indicators are not explicit but the company’s long-standing establishment since 2000 and diversified service offerings suggest operational stability. The partnership ecosystem includes official city websites and environmental bodies, reinforcing its market position.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and cookie consent mechanisms aligned with GDPR requirements. Email addresses are protected via obfuscation to mitigate scraping risks. However, the absence of explicit HTTP security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security posture. No visible vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are provided, which could hinder timely security incident management. The use of third-party scripts like Google Analytics introduces moderate tracking but is managed with user consent. There are no indications of exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries in the provided content. To improve, the company should implement comprehensive security headers, publish a security.txt file, and provide clear incident response contact information to enhance transparency and readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to harden website security.
  2. Publish a security.txt file and provide clear incident response contact details to facilitate vulnerability reporting and incident management.
  3. Enhance WHOIS transparency by ensuring domain registration data is publicly available and consistent with business information.
  4. Conduct regular audits of third-party scripts and dependencies to identify and mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Maintain and update GDPR and cookie consent mechanisms to ensure ongoing compliance and user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using a modern technology stack including jQuery 3.7.1, Leaflet for mapping, and the Nette PHP framework for backend and AJAX functionality. It employs responsive design techniques and includes accessibility features at a basic level. Performance is moderate with optimized images and lazy loading for carousel images. SEO is supported by proper meta tags, Open Graph tags, and canonical URLs. The site uses multiple JavaScript libraries for UI components such as modals and carousels. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or framework-based implementation. Hosting provider details are not discernible from the content. The technical implementation supports a good user experience but could benefit from enhanced accessibility and security header implementation to reduce technical risks.
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.
