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

The website czechkrumlov.com serves as a comprehensive travel guide focused on Cesky Krumlov, a historic town in the Czech Republic. It provides detailed information about the town's history, attractions, dining options, transportation, and practical visitor tips. The site targets tourists and travelers interested in exploring this UNESCO World Heritage site. The business model appears to be informational with revenue generated through advertising and affiliate marketing. The website has been active since 2008, indicating a stable presence in its niche. Technically, the site uses standard web technologies including HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, jQuery, and Vegas.js for slideshow effects. Hosting is provided by HostMonster, as indicated by the nameservers. The site performance is moderate with basic mobile optimization and accessibility features. SEO is adequately addressed with proper meta tags and structured content. From a security perspective, the site lacks advanced security headers and DNSSEC is not enabled, which are areas for improvement. There is no visible HTTPS enforcement information, and no privacy or cookie policies are present, indicating compliance gaps with GDPR and other privacy regulations. No contact information or incident response channels are provided, limiting transparency and trust. Overall, the website is functional and informative but would benefit from enhanced security measures, privacy compliance, and clearer business contact information to improve trustworthiness and user confidence.

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

12 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: PostgreSQL

      Port 5432 (PostgreSQL) is publicly accessible - PostgreSQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to PostgreSQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)

      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
  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

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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

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 · found on this site
  • 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 occupies a niche position as a dedicated travel guide for Cesky Krumlov, leveraging detailed historical and practical content to attract tourists. Its competitive advantage lies in the depth of local knowledge and curated recommendations. The business model relies on advertising and affiliate partnerships, such as with Invia.cz, to monetize traffic. The target audience includes international and domestic travelers seeking comprehensive travel planning resources. Growth potential exists through expanded content, improved SEO, and enhanced user engagement features. The partnership ecosystem is limited but includes affiliate travel services. Strategic observations suggest that formalizing business identity and compliance documentation could enhance credibility and market reach.

Security posture

The current security posture is basic with several notable gaps. The absence of DNSSEC and security headers reduces protection against DNS spoofing and common web attacks. Lack of HTTPS enforcement details raises concerns about data confidentiality. No privacy or cookie policies are present, indicating non-compliance with GDPR and similar regulations. The site does not provide incident response contacts or security policies, limiting preparedness for security events. While no critical vulnerabilities or malware indicators were found, the security maturity level is low to moderate. Addressing these gaps would reduce risk exposure and improve user trust.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement HTTPS with HSTS header to ensure secure connections and protect user data.
  3. Add comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to comply with GDPR and inform users.
  4. Publish clear contact information including security incident response channels.
  5. Incorporate security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a traditional web stack with HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript libraries including jQuery and Vegas.js for UI effects. Hosting is managed via HostMonster, a known provider. The site includes Google Adsense for monetization and affiliate banners for travel bookings. Performance is moderate with basic mobile responsiveness and accessibility. SEO is supported by meta tags and structured content but could be enhanced with additional structured data formats like JSON-LD. No CMS or advanced frameworks were detected, indicating a likely static or custom-built site. Technical risks include outdated libraries and lack of modern security practices which could impact reliability and user trust.
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.
