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

6 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube, Google APIs

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  3. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

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

Effectix operates in the digital marketing sector, targeting businesses in the Czech Republic, Slovakia, and the broader CEE region. Their business model revolves around providing tailored marketing solutions that drive business growth, leveraging certifications and alliances to differentiate themselves. The company’s competitive advantage lies in its Google Premier Partner status and regional alliance memberships, enabling access to exclusive tools and support. Their revenue streams likely include service fees for PPC, SEO, social media management, and creative strategy. The client base includes medium to large enterprises, indicating a focus on established businesses. Partnerships with platforms like Shoptet and Google Accelerate enhance their service offerings. The company demonstrates a professional brand image and a strategic approach to market expansion.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with enforced HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms, indicating GDPR compliance efforts. However, the absence of visible security headers and explicit security or incident response policies suggests gaps in transparency and potential vulnerability management. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. The use of multiple third-party tracking scripts requires ongoing vigilance to prevent supply chain risks. The lack of a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file limits external reporting channels. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a marketing agency but could be enhanced by formalizing security policies and improving header configurations.

Recommendations

  1. Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Investigate and resolve the missing WHOIS registration data to improve domain trustworthiness and legitimacy.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to mitigate supply chain and privacy risks.
  5. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack including Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and Cookiebot for privacy compliance. The design is responsive with good mobile optimization and SEO practices. The site loads with moderate performance and uses Google Fonts for typography. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary solution. Hosting provider details are not evident from the content. The site structure is clear with well-organized navigation and multilingual support. Technical debt appears low, but improvements in accessibility and security headers could be made to enhance overall robustness.
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.
