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

8 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. 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

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 website holds a strong position in the Czech economic media sector, focusing on legislative and economic developments. Its business model revolves around content publication and advertising revenue, supported by partnerships such as with Media Networks. The target audience includes policymakers, business professionals, and informed citizens. The presence of videopodcasts and social media integration indicates a multi-channel content strategy. The domain age and WHOIS data support its credibility. However, the absence of phone contacts and physical addresses may limit direct business inquiries. Advertising practices are transparent but basic, with room for enhanced marketing tools and retargeting strategies.

Security posture

The site enforces HTTPS and uses cookie consent management compliant with GDPR. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. However, the absence of security headers like CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options is a gap. There is no visible incident response or security policy page, nor a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file. Third-party scripts such as Google Tag Manager and ad networks are used, which require regular auditing to avoid supply chain risks. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by implementing recommended headers and explicit security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement security headers including Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options to improve defense against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to enhance transparency and preparedness.
  3. Establish and publicize a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Audit third-party scripts regularly to mitigate risks from external dependencies.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses WordPress 6.8.1 with Yoast SEO Premium and Complianz GDPR Premium plugins, indicating a modern and SEO-focused infrastructure. Hosting is supported by Cloudflare DNS and likely CDN, improving performance and security. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and uses JavaScript frameworks for UI interactions. Performance is moderate, with some room for optimization. The presence of multiple ad networks and tracking scripts suggests a monetization strategy balanced with privacy compliance. No broken elements or errors were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the technical implementation is solid with opportunities for further modernization and security hardening.
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.
