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

    • 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. 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

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 serves as a government-operated informational platform targeting Budapest residents and Hungarian-speaking audiences interested in local culture and news. It operates under the Budapest Főváros Önkormányzata (Budapest City Municipality) umbrella, positioning itself as an authoritative source for municipal news and cultural programming. The business model is non-commercial, focusing on public service and community engagement. The site leverages social media channels for broader outreach and maintains a consistent brand presence. Growth indicators include regular content updates and diverse article categories. Partnerships appear limited to municipal and cultural institutions, with no commercial subsidiaries or related domains identified.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, no exposed sensitive data, and implementation of cookie consent mechanisms. Security headers such as cache-control and pragma are set to prevent caching of sensitive content. The presence of Facebook Pixel indicates some user tracking, but privacy policies address data handling. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms represents a compliance gap. No known vulnerabilities or suspicious domains were detected. Overall, the site is secure for its purpose but could improve transparency around security incident management.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and compliance.
  2. Implement and publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability reporting.
  3. Add explicit incident response contact information for security issues.
  4. Create a terms of service page to clarify user rights and responsibilities.
  5. Enhance transparency around data retention policies and user data handling.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Next.js, a React-based framework, enabling server-side rendering and optimized performance. It uses Google Fonts for typography and integrates Facebook Pixel for marketing analytics. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility considerations. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Hosting details are not explicitly disclosed. The site uses modern JavaScript chunking and lazy loading for efficient resource delivery. No CMS is explicitly identified, suggesting a custom or proprietary content management solution. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a fast, accessible, and SEO-friendly user experience.
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.
