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

The website fakulta.cz serves as an educational portal primarily focused on providing a searchable database of study programs in the Czech Republic. It is associated with the European Research University (ERUNI) and targets prospective students seeking detailed information about various study fields, types, forms, locations, and languages of instruction. The platform offers a user-friendly interface with filtering options to help users find suitable study programs. The domain is well-established since 2003, indicating a mature presence in the educational sector. From a technical perspective, the site employs modern JavaScript libraries such as Choices.js for enhanced form controls, CKEditor for content editing, and Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing purposes. The site is hosted likely by Wedos, a Czech hosting provider, and uses HTTPS to secure communications. Mobile optimization and SEO practices are adequately implemented, though accessibility features are basic. Security-wise, the website benefits from HTTPS and a cookie consent mechanism, reflecting some compliance with privacy regulations. However, it lacks visible security headers and published privacy or terms of service policies, which are important for comprehensive compliance and user trust. No contact information or incident response details are provided, limiting transparency. The WHOIS data is consistent and supports the legitimacy of the domain and business. Overall, fakulta.cz is a functional and moderately mature educational platform with room for improvement in privacy compliance, security hardening, and transparency. Strategic enhancements in these areas would strengthen user trust 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

  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"

    • 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

Fakulta.cz operates as a niche educational search portal within the Czech Republic, focusing on connecting students with study programs. Its competitive advantage lies in its association with the European Research University network, lending credibility and access to a broad academic ecosystem. The business model revolves around providing free access to program listings with potential monetization through partnerships or educational services. Target customers are primarily prospective students and educational institutions. The presence of partner domains such as eruni.org and colleges.cz indicates a collaborative ecosystem. Growth indicators include a long domain history and modern web technologies. However, the lack of direct contact and policy transparency may limit trust and expansion opportunities.

Security posture

The security posture of fakulta.cz is moderate. The use of HTTPS ensures encrypted communication, and the cookie consent banner demonstrates awareness of privacy regulations. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and others reduces protection against common web attacks. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The lack of published security policies or incident response contacts suggests limited readiness for security incidents. Compliance with GDPR is partial due to missing privacy documentation. Overall, the site is functional but would benefit from enhanced security controls and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy detailing data collection, usage, and user rights.
  2. Add a terms of service page to clarify user agreements and legal protections.
  3. Provide clear contact information including a security or abuse contact email.
  4. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  5. Conduct regular security audits and update third-party libraries to mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern JavaScript-based frontend with libraries like Choices.js for enhanced select inputs and CKEditor for content editing. Google Tag Manager is used for analytics and marketing tracking. The site loads fonts from Google Fonts and uses ES Module Shims for compatibility. Hosting is likely provided by Wedos, a Czech registrar and hosting provider. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and SEO meta tags. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. No CMS was detected, suggesting a custom or static site architecture. Overall, the technical implementation is solid but could benefit from enhanced accessibility and security features.
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.
