Czech Film Center is a government-affiliated organization dedicated to promoting Czech audiovisual production globally. It serves as a key resource for film industry professionals, providing information on films, filmmakers, festivals, and industry news. The website is professionally designed with consistent branding and clear navigation, targeting the international film community and industry stakeholders. Technically, the site employs a modern JavaScript stack including jQuery, Bootstrap, and Google services, ensuring a good user experience with moderate performance and mobile optimization. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and reCAPTCHA integration, though it lacks some advanced security headers and explicit security policies. Privacy compliance is strong, featuring a comprehensive privacy policy and a granular cookie consent mechanism. The absence of WHOIS data reduces domain trust assessment, but the official affiliations and content quality support legitimacy. Overall, the site is a reliable and professional platform for Czech film promotion.

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

4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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 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';…
  2. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1
  3. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

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 Czech Film Center operates as an important entity within the media sector, functioning under the Czech Audiovisual Fund. Its business model focuses on national film promotion and industry support rather than commercial revenue generation. The organization maintains partnerships with European film bodies and producer associations, enhancing its market position. The website content and partner ecosystem indicate a well-established network within the European film industry. The target audience includes filmmakers, producers, festival organizers, and international media. The site’s content and services reflect a strategic focus on cultural promotion and industry facilitation, with growth potential tied to expanding Czech film visibility worldwide.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with mandatory HTTPS, integration of Google reCAPTCHA for form protection, and a detailed cookie consent mechanism supporting GDPR compliance. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represents a gap that could expose the site to certain web-based attacks. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. The lack of a public security policy or incident response contact limits transparency and readiness perception. Overall, the site is secure for general use but would benefit from enhanced security controls and published policies to improve trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to harden the site against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response information to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Consider adding a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and improve security communication.
  4. Verify and update WHOIS registration data to ensure domain legitimacy and improve trust signals.
  5. Continue maintaining and enhancing privacy compliance mechanisms, including clear data retention policies.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a combination of popular JavaScript libraries and plugins such as jQuery, Bootstrap 3.3.7, FullCalendar, Alertify, Magnific Popup, and BxSlider to deliver a rich interactive experience. Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics are employed for traffic analysis and marketing optimization. Fonts are loaded asynchronously via Adobe Typekit. The site is served over HTTPS with no visible SSL issues. Performance is moderate, with some potential for optimization in loading speed and accessibility improvements. The site lacks a detectable CMS, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Mobile optimization is good, and SEO practices are adequately implemented with meta tags and Open Graph data. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and functional website but could benefit from modernization and enhanced accessibility 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.
