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

The website www.cihan.cz/cihan/ serves as the official online presence of the municipality of Číhaň in the Czech Republic. It provides comprehensive local government information, community news, event calendars, and practical resources for residents and visitors. The site is well-structured, with clear navigation and localized content primarily in Czech. It integrates social media and uses modern web technologies such as jQuery, Google Analytics, and Font Awesome to enhance user experience. However, the absence of WHOIS registration data raises some concerns about domain transparency, although the content and contact details strongly indicate a legitimate municipal entity. Technically, the site employs HTTPS and includes a cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR principles, though no explicit privacy policy or terms of service pages were found. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization and accessibility features. Security posture is moderate, with HTTPS enabled but lacking explicit security headers and incident response information. Analytics usage is moderate, leveraging Google Analytics and Facebook SDK for tracking, with a basic level of user tracking. Overall, the website is a trustworthy and professional municipal portal with room for improvement in transparency and security best practices. Strategic recommendations include publishing a privacy policy, implementing security headers, and providing incident response contacts to enhance 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

7 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

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

Číhaň municipality operates as a small local government entity providing essential public services and community engagement through its website. The business model is informational and service-oriented, targeting residents and tourists. The site reflects a stable market position as an official government portal with partnerships to regional and microregional government bodies. Revenue streams are not applicable as it is a public service entity. The partnership ecosystem includes regional authorities and hosting providers. Growth indicators are limited but the site maintains updated content and community event information, signaling active engagement. Strategic observations highlight the importance of digital presence for local governance and community transparency.

Security posture

The website's security maturity is moderate. HTTPS is enforced, ensuring encrypted communication. The presence of a cookie consent banner indicates awareness of privacy regulations. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and others reduces defense-in-depth. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which limits readiness for security incidents. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The site would benefit from enhanced security policies and transparency to align with GDPR and NIS2 compliance requirements. Overall, the security culture appears basic but functional for a small government site.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page detailing data processing and user rights.
  2. Implement HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options.
  3. Provide clear incident response contact information and consider publishing a security.txt file.
  4. Enhance cookie consent mechanism with granular control and detailed cookie descriptions.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and analytics tools to minimize privacy risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a traditional web stack with jQuery and several UI libraries like Flexslider and Fancybox for interactive elements. Google Analytics and Tag Manager are used for analytics, and Facebook SDK for social media integration. The site is served over HTTPS, indicating a secure transport layer. The HTML is well-structured with meta tags for SEO and accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA labels. The site is mobile responsive and includes accessibility considerations. However, no modern CMS or framework is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or legacy platform. Performance is moderate, with multiple CSS and JS files loaded. Hosting provider details are not explicitly available. There is an opportunity to modernize the tech stack and improve performance and security headers for better resilience.
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.
