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

Computertrends.cz is a Czech online news portal focused on IT professionals, providing daily updates on security, hardware, software, technology, and internet news. The site appears to be a reputable source within the Czech IT media landscape, offering relevant and professional content tailored to its target audience. Technically, the website employs modern tracking and advertising technologies including Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Gemius, and DoubleClick, alongside a consent management platform to comply with privacy regulations. The site is served over HTTPS with a good SSL configuration, though some security headers are not explicitly detected in the HTML source. The absence of publicly available WHOIS data suggests domain privacy protection, which is common for media websites but reduces transparency. Overall, the website demonstrates a moderate to good security posture with room for improvement in privacy policy transparency and security best practices. No signs of WAF or content blocking were detected, allowing full content accessibility.

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.

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 as an important entity in the Czech technology media sector, targeting IT professionals with daily news and insights. Its business model revolves around content publishing supported by advertising revenue, leveraging major ad networks such as Google AdSense and Sklik. The site’s use of multiple analytics and tracking services indicates a focus on audience measurement and advertising optimization. While no explicit company registration or contact details are found, the site’s branding and content quality suggest a medium-sized operation with consistent branding. The lack of visible business certifications or detailed company information limits deeper business intelligence insights. The site’s ecosystem includes partnerships with advertising and analytics providers but no identified subsidiaries or parent companies.

Security posture

Computertrends.cz maintains a good security posture with HTTPS enforced and integration of error monitoring via Sentry. The presence of a consent management platform indicates awareness of privacy compliance requirements. However, the site lacks explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options in the HTML source, which are recommended to enhance security against common web attacks. No vulnerability disclosures or security policies are published, and no incident response contacts are visible. The absence of a security.txt file or similar mechanism reduces transparency for security researchers. Overall, the site is moderately secure but would benefit from implementing additional security headers and publishing clear security and incident response policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy page clearly accessible from the homepage.
  2. Add and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Provide a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and ensure compliance with web accessibility standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack with Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Gemius analytics, and DoubleClick advertising. It employs a consent management platform (Didomi) for cookie compliance. The site loads web fonts asynchronously and uses responsive design techniques for mobile optimization. Performance is moderate with multiple external scripts and ad slots, which may impact load times. No CMS is explicitly detected from the HTML source. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. The site’s SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph metadata. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. The site does not appear to have technical debt or outdated libraries but could benefit from enhanced security headers and privacy transparency.
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.
