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

Ekatalog.cz is a well-established regional business directory focused on providing verified company listings and ratings primarily in Eastern Bohemia, Czech Republic. Operated by Netpromotion group s.r.o., the website offers a comprehensive database of over 660,000 Czech companies with user ratings sourced from Google and Facebook. The business model centers on facilitating connections between consumers and local businesses through an easy-to-use search platform categorized by industry and region. The site has been active for over 19 years, indicating a stable market presence and trusted service within its niche. From a technical perspective, the website employs modern web technologies including JavaScript, SVG graphics, and integrates Google Tag Manager and Cloudflare Insights for analytics and performance monitoring. The site is hosted behind Cloudflare, ensuring good SSL/TLS security and moderate performance. The design is responsive and optimized for mobile devices, with clear navigation and structured content enhancing user experience. However, some accessibility features could be improved. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. Nonetheless, the absence of security headers and explicit incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies suggests room for improvement in security maturity. Privacy compliance is partially addressed with privacy and cookie policies present, but lacks an active cookie consent mechanism, which is important for GDPR compliance. Contact information is limited to a contact form without direct emails or phone numbers publicly listed. Overall, the website presents a trustworthy and professional front for a regional business directory with good content quality and technical implementation. The main risk lies in the lack of WHOIS transparency and some security best practices. Strategic improvements in security headers, privacy consent, and incident response documentation would enhance trust and compliance.

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 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. 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 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

Ekatalog.cz holds a strong position as the largest regional database of companies and institutions in Eastern Bohemia, serving a broad audience including consumers and businesses seeking verified local services. Its competitive advantage lies in its extensive listings, integration of social proof via Google and Facebook ratings, and long operational history. The business model is primarily informational and likely monetized through premium listings or advertising. The target customers are general consumers and local businesses. The parent company, Netpromotion group s.r.o., supports the platform and related services. Growth indicators include a large monthly request volume and continuous content updates. The partnership ecosystem includes Google services and Cloudflare for hosting and analytics. The company operates in multiple sectors including transport, real estate, retail, education, and services, reflecting a diversified market presence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and no evident vulnerabilities in the HTML content or forms. The use of Cloudflare provides additional protection and performance benefits. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No public incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies were found, which may hinder timely security issue reporting and resolution. Privacy policies are present and GDPR compliance is partially addressed, but the absence of a cookie consent mechanism is a compliance gap. The site does not expose sensitive data or use vulnerable libraries based on the provided content. Overall, the security posture is adequate but could be improved by adopting recommended headers, publishing security policies, and implementing consent management.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner or mechanism to comply fully with GDPR and improve user privacy transparency.
  3. Publish explicit incident response and vulnerability disclosure policies or a security.txt file to facilitate security communications.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve usability for all users, including those with disabilities.
  5. Increase transparency by ensuring WHOIS data is available and accurate to improve domain trustworthiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern JavaScript-based frontend with SVG icons and integrates Google Tag Manager and Cloudflare Insights for analytics and performance monitoring. The site is hosted behind Cloudflare, providing SSL/TLS encryption and CDN benefits. The HTML is well-structured with proper meta tags for SEO and social media sharing (Open Graph and Twitter cards). The site is mobile responsive with preloaded fonts and optimized images. No CMS or backend technology was explicitly detected. Performance is moderate with asynchronous script loading. There is no evidence of technical debt or deprecated libraries in the provided content. Opportunities exist to improve accessibility and implement additional security headers to reduce technical risks.
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.
