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

The website egako.eu represents the official online presence of the monthly peer-reviewed publication 'Geodetický a Kartografický Obzor' (GaKO), serving professionals in geodesy, cartography, and cadastral services primarily in the Czech Republic and Slovakia. The publication has a long-standing history dating back to 1913 and is recognized in official research registries, positioning it as a unique and authoritative source in its niche. The business model focuses on disseminating specialized knowledge through monthly electronic issues, targeting government officials, researchers, educators, and commercial sector experts in the field. Technically, the website is built on WordPress 5.3.18 with a traditional tech stack including jQuery and Nivo Slider. While the site is functional and moderately optimized for performance and mobile use, it lacks modern security headers and uses an outdated jQuery version, which introduces potential vulnerabilities. The site employs HTTPS but does not implement advanced security configurations such as Content-Security-Policy or HSTS. Analytics are conducted via Histats.com without visible cookie consent mechanisms, indicating limited privacy compliance. From a security perspective, the site shows moderate maturity with HTTPS enabled but missing critical security headers and using outdated libraries. No privacy or cookie policies were found, and no contact information or incident response channels are explicitly provided on the analyzed page. The WHOIS data is consistent and transparent, registered to a Czech company matching the website's language and business focus, supporting legitimacy. Overall, the website is a credible and professional resource within its domain but requires improvements in privacy compliance, security best practices, and transparency of contact information to enhance trust and reduce risk. Strategic enhancements in these areas will strengthen the site's security posture and regulatory adherence.

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

10 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

  2. 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.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  3. 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"

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

GaKO holds a unique market position as the sole specialized publication jointly serving Czech and Slovak geodesy and cartography professionals. Its competitive advantage lies in its historical legacy, official recognition, and focused content. The business model is primarily content publishing with revenue likely from subscriptions or institutional support. The target customers are government agencies, academic institutions, and commercial entities in the geospatial sector. Growth indicators include ongoing publication and digital transition since 2013. Partnerships with government bodies such as the Czech Office for Surveying, Mapping and Cadastre (ČÚZK) and Slovak Geodesy authorities are evident from linked RSS feeds, reinforcing its authoritative ecosystem. The company operates as a small entity under Gransy s.r.o., with no subsidiaries or parent companies identified.

Security posture

The current security posture is moderate but with notable gaps. HTTPS is implemented, ensuring encrypted communications. However, the absence of security headers like CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options exposes the site to common web attacks such as clickjacking and content injection. The use of an outdated jQuery version (1.12.4) is a significant vulnerability vector. No privacy or cookie policies are present, which is a compliance risk under GDPR. Incident response mechanisms and security policies are not publicly disclosed, limiting transparency. The site uses third-party tracking (Histats.com) without visible consent, further impacting privacy compliance. Overall, the site requires urgent upgrades in security headers, library versions, and privacy transparency to meet modern standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance and user consent mechanisms.
  2. Upgrade all JavaScript libraries, especially jQuery, to the latest secure versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  3. Add essential security headers including Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Publish clear contact information including security incident response contacts and data protection officer details if applicable.
  5. Conduct regular security audits and vulnerability assessments to maintain and improve security posture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website runs on WordPress 5.3.18, which is an older version and may lack recent security patches. The front-end uses jQuery 1.12.4 and jQuery Migrate 1.4.1, both outdated and vulnerable. The site uses Nivo Slider for image slideshows and Google Fonts for typography. Performance is moderate with some optimization for mobile devices but could be improved. SEO is basic with canonical tags and alternate language links but lacks advanced metadata like Open Graph or JSON-LD structured data. Accessibility features are minimal, with some screen-reader text present. The site uses Histats.com for visitor analytics but lacks cookie consent banners. No forms are present on the analyzed page, reducing attack surface but also limiting user interaction. Hosting provider details are not explicitly found.
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.
