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

Czecot.pl is a Polish-language tourism blog focused on travel and architectural attractions in the Czech Republic. The website provides informative articles and travel guides targeting general audiences interested in Czech tourism. The business operates as a small content-driven blog founded around 2019, with no evident commercial or e-commerce activities. Technically, the site is built on WordPress CMS with common plugins such as Yoast SEO, LayerSlider, and Contact Form 7, hosted by OVH SAS. The site is moderately optimized for mobile and SEO, with Google Analytics and Tag Manager integrated for visitor tracking. Security posture is basic with HTTPS enabled but lacks advanced security headers and DNSSEC. Privacy compliance is good with a privacy policy and cookie consent banner implemented. However, no contact information, terms of service, or incident response policies are present, limiting business credibility. Overall, the site is legitimate, safe, and functional but could improve security and transparency aspects.

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.

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 tourism blog specializing in Czech Republic travel content for Polish speakers. It leverages content marketing to attract visitors interested in travel tips and cultural insights. The business model is primarily informational with potential monetization through advertising or affiliate marketing, though no explicit ads or affiliate links were detected. The site’s small size and recent domain registration align with a startup or hobbyist blog. The lack of direct contact details or business registration information suggests a low formal business presence. The site benefits from consistent branding and a focused content strategy but could enhance market position by adding clearer business information and expanding content offerings.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS ensuring encrypted communication, which is a fundamental security measure. However, it lacks DNSSEC, which could protect against DNS spoofing attacks. No security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options were detected, which are recommended to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. The use of popular WordPress plugins introduces potential risks if not regularly updated. No exposed sensitive data or obvious vulnerabilities were found in the HTML content. Privacy compliance is supported by cookie consent mechanisms and a privacy policy, but no formal security policy or incident response information is available. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved by implementing recommended headers, enabling DNSSEC, and publishing security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to reduce attack surface.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response plan to improve transparency and preparedness.
  4. Add clear contact information including business emails and phone numbers to enhance credibility.
  5. Regularly update WordPress core and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities and maintain security.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern but common technology stack including Yoast SEO, LayerSlider, and Contact Form 7 plugins. It uses jQuery and integrates Google Analytics and Tag Manager for tracking. The site is hosted by OVH SAS, a reputable provider. Performance is moderate with no explicit speed optimizations detected. Mobile optimization is good, supported by responsive design and adaptive CSS. SEO is enhanced by Yoast SEO plugin and proper meta tags including Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data. Accessibility is basic with no advanced ARIA or accessibility features noted. The site uses multiple external resources from trusted domains. Overall, the technical infrastructure is standard for a small WordPress blog but could benefit from performance tuning and enhanced accessibility.
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.
