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

The Český horolezecký svaz (Czech Mountaineering Association) operates as a national non-profit organization dedicated to supporting climbers, mountaineers, and skialpinists in the Czech Republic. The website serves as an information hub offering membership services, insurance products, event organization, educational resources, and maintenance of climbing areas. It holds a strong market position as the official governing body for climbing sports in the country, supported by partnerships with recognized brands and international federations. Technically, the website is built on a modern CMS platform (Vizus CMS) with standard web technologies and includes integrations such as Google Tag Manager and EmbedSocial for social media content. The site is mobile-optimized and provides a good user experience with clear navigation and relevant content. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforcement and cookie consent mechanisms, though it lacks some advanced security headers and explicit privacy and terms of service documentation. The absence of WHOIS data reduces domain trust slightly but does not detract significantly from the overall legitimacy given the organization's public presence and affiliations. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and serves its community effectively.

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

7 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.

      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 Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

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 organization targets climbers and mountaineers primarily within the Czech Republic, offering membership, insurance, training, and event participation. Its business model is non-profit and community-focused, relying on membership fees, partnerships, and sponsorships. The website reflects a medium-sized entity with a consistent brand and a comprehensive service offering. Partnerships with equipment manufacturers, insurance companies, and government bodies enhance its credibility and operational reach. The presence of international affiliations like UIAA and IFSC indicates active engagement in the global climbing community. Growth indicators include active event promotion and educational programs. The partnership ecosystem is robust, supporting both commercial and governmental collaborations.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and a cookie consent banner that complies with GDPR principles. However, it lacks visible security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options, which are recommended to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. No sensitive data is exposed in the HTML content, and no vulnerable libraries were detected. The absence of explicit privacy and security policies and incident response contacts represents a compliance gap. Overall, the site is secure for general use but would benefit from enhanced security controls and transparency to improve trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to strengthen web security.
  2. Publish clear and accessible privacy policy and terms of service pages to improve legal compliance and user trust.
  3. Provide explicit contact information for security incidents and data protection inquiries to enhance incident response readiness.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct periodic security assessments to maintain a high security posture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack including HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, and third-party integrations like Google Tag Manager and EmbedSocial. It is built on the Vizus CMS platform, which supports content management and cookie consent functionality. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility features. SEO is well addressed through meta tags and structured navigation. Technical risks include missing security headers and potential reliance on third-party scripts that require monitoring. The site is well-structured but could benefit from performance optimizations and enhanced accessibility compliance.
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.
