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

Čistý festival is a well-established non-profit project based in the Czech Republic, focused on promoting waste sorting and recycling at festivals and majáles events since 2008. The website serves as a platform to motivate hundreds of thousands of visitors annually to engage in environmentally responsible behavior, offering interactive features such as a map of participating festivals and a music talent competition called REC.stage. The project has a strong social media presence and transparent contact channels, reinforcing its community engagement and trustworthiness. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern frameworks like Bootstrap and Leaflet.js for interactive maps. It employs Google Tag Manager and other analytics tools with a clear cookie consent mechanism, demonstrating a mature digital infrastructure. The site is mobile-optimized and SEO-friendly, with good content quality and navigation clarity. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and cookie consent management effectively but lacks some explicit security headers. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. The absence of public WHOIS data suggests privacy protection for the domain, which is common for non-profit organizations but slightly reduces transparency. Overall, Čistý festival presents a low-risk profile with a strong focus on environmental education and community involvement. Strategic improvements in security headers and domain transparency could further 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

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

    • 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

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  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

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 project occupies a unique niche in the Czech environmental non-profit sector, leveraging festival culture to promote sustainable waste management. Its competitive advantage lies in its long-standing presence since 2008 and integration with popular cultural events. Revenue streams likely include sponsorships, partnerships, and grants rather than direct sales. The target audience includes festival attendees, event organizers, and environmentally conscious individuals. Growth indicators include expanding festival participation and engagement in the REC.stage competition. Partnerships with sites like samosebou.cz indicate a collaborative ecosystem focused on waste sorting and sustainability. The website's professional presentation and active content updates reflect a well-managed operation with strong market positioning.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced, and cookie consent is managed with granular user options, aligning with GDPR requirements. However, the lack of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a gap that could be exploited in certain attack vectors. No signs of malware, phishing, or exposed credentials were found. The contact form includes consent checkboxes but should be audited for anti-CSRF and spam protections. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure information are absent, which could be improved to enhance security readiness. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a non-profit informational site but could benefit from additional hardening and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  3. Enhance contact forms with anti-CSRF tokens and spam protection mechanisms to prevent abuse.
  4. Increase transparency by providing more detailed WHOIS or domain registration information if possible.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and plugins for vulnerabilities and update them promptly.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern and popular CMS (WordPress) combined with Bootstrap for responsive design and Leaflet.js for interactive mapping, indicating a solid technical foundation. The inclusion of Google Tag Manager and Burst Statistics shows an advanced approach to analytics and user behavior tracking with privacy considerations. Performance is moderate, with optimized images and asynchronous script loading. Accessibility is basic but could be improved with more ARIA attributes and keyboard navigation enhancements. SEO is well addressed with meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. The site is mobile-friendly and visually appealing, supporting a positive user experience. Technical risks include dependency on multiple third-party scripts and the need for updated security headers.
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.
