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

The website www.dvk-rs.si is the official online presence of the State Election Commission of the Republic of Slovenia, a government agency responsible for managing and communicating election and referendum information. It provides authoritative content including election results, voting procedures, contact information, and accessibility features tailored for Slovenian voters and election officials. The site is well-branded, consistent, and professionally maintained, reflecting its official status. Technically, the site is built on the TYPO3 CMS platform with modern responsive design elements such as Bootstrap components and accessibility tools. It employs Matomo for analytics, ensuring moderate user tracking with privacy compliance. The site is served over HTTPS with a good SSL configuration, though some security headers are not explicitly detected. Accessibility is well addressed with keyboard navigation and contrast options. From a security perspective, the site demonstrates good practices including encrypted connections and cookie consent mechanisms. However, it lacks publicly visible security policies or incident response contacts, which could be improved to enhance transparency and trust. No vulnerabilities or suspicious content were detected. Overall, the website is a trustworthy, professional government resource with solid technical infrastructure and compliance with privacy regulations. Strategic improvements in security policy disclosure and security headers would further strengthen its posture.

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

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • 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 Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

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 State Election Commission operates as a government entity providing essential election administration services in Slovenia. Its market position is authoritative and exclusive within its sector. The business model is non-commercial, focused on public service and information dissemination. Key services include election result publication, voter education, and official announcements. The target audience is primarily Slovenian voters and election officials. The domain age and registrant information align with the agency's history, reinforcing credibility. The website's partnership ecosystem is limited, reflecting its government nature, with no commercial subsidiaries or partners detected.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented in compliance with EU regulations. The absence of exposed sensitive data and use of secure forms are positive indicators. However, the lack of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and absence of a published security policy or incident response contact reduce transparency. No vulnerable libraries or scripts were identified. The use of Matomo analytics suggests privacy-conscious tracking. Overall, the site is secure but could benefit from enhanced security documentation and header implementation to meet best practices fully.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and compliance.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement additional HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance transparency by detailing data retention policies related to analytics and user data.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a robust open-source content management system, with Bootstrap components for responsive design. It uses Matomo for analytics, indicating a preference for privacy-respecting tools. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with features supporting keyboard navigation and contrast adjustments. Performance is moderate, with compressed CSS and JS assets. Hosting details are not explicitly disclosed. The technical implementation is solid with room for improvement in security headers and performance optimization. The site structure and metadata support good SEO practices.
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.
