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

The website evropskasredstva.si serves as the official Slovenian government portal dedicated to European structural and investment funds. It provides comprehensive information on EU programs, projects, calls for proposals, and advisory services aimed at stakeholders and the general public interested in EU funding opportunities. The portal is well-positioned as a trusted government resource with consistent branding and official social media presence. Technically, the site is built on WordPress 6.8.1, leveraging a modern tech stack including Google Maps API, Google Analytics via MonsterInsights, and multiple plugins for SEO, accessibility, and user management. The site demonstrates good performance, mobile optimization, and SEO practices, supported by structured data and meta tags. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS with Cloudflare DNS, includes security headers, and employs GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanisms. However, explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are not present, representing areas for improvement. Overall, the site is professional, trustworthy, and secure with minor gaps in formal security documentation. Strategic recommendations include publishing security and privacy policies, adding a security.txt file, and enhancing incident response readiness to further strengthen 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

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

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

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

Evropskasredstva.si operates as a government portal under the Ministry of Cohesion and Regional Development of Slovenia, focusing on disseminating information about European Union funding programs. Its competitive advantage lies in its official status, comprehensive content, and integration with government and EU partner sites. The business model is informational and service-oriented, targeting public sector entities, project applicants, and citizens. Growth indicators include active social media engagement and regular content updates. The partnership ecosystem includes official government domains and EU-related sites, reinforcing its authoritative position.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced, Cloudflare DNS usage, and security headers implemented. Cookie consent and GDPR compliance are evident through the Moove GDPR plugin. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure channels limits transparency and preparedness. The site would benefit from formalizing these aspects to enhance security culture and compliance with regulations such as GDPR and NIS2.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages accessible from the homepage.
  2. Implement and publicize a security policy and incident response plan with clear contact channels.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Ensure all forms have robust input validation and CSRF protection to prevent injection attacks.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party plugins to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress platform with a well-curated set of plugins for SEO (Yoast, All in One SEO), analytics (MonsterInsights), accessibility (Pojo Accessibility), and user management (Ultimate Member). It uses Google Maps API for location features and integrates social media feeds. Performance optimizations are in place via WP Rocket caching and lazy loading. The site is mobile responsive and includes accessibility features. Technical risks are minimal but depend on maintaining plugin updates and monitoring for vulnerabilities.
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.
