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.

Priority findings

9 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

  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

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

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

Hotel Saffron operates in the hospitality sector with a focus on business and congress clients. Its competitive advantage lies in its strategic location near government buildings and the city center, extensive conference facilities, and comprehensive event services. The business model centers on accommodation, event hosting, and restaurant services, targeting corporate clients and tourists. The domain age and registration data support a stable market presence since 2010. The partnership with HORECA GROUP for CMS and website development indicates a professional operational ecosystem. Growth potential exists through enhanced digital marketing and improved technical infrastructure. The company maintains clear contact channels and GDPR compliance, which are important for customer trust and regulatory adherence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and DNSSEC enabled, which are strong indicators of secure domain management. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. The use of an outdated jQuery version may expose the site to known vulnerabilities. The Google Maps API key is exposed and the map fails to load correctly, indicating a misconfiguration that could be exploited or degrade user trust. No explicit security policy or incident response contact information is provided, which is a gap in security governance. Overall, the site is secure enough for general business use but would benefit from enhancements in security headers, library updates, and incident response readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Update jQuery and other JavaScript libraries to their latest secure versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  2. Implement and configure essential security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Fix the Google Maps API integration to prevent errors and avoid exposing the API key unnecessarily.
  4. Publish a dedicated security policy page and provide clear incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Regularly review and audit website security posture and compliance with GDPR and other relevant regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a proprietary CMS by HORECA GROUP and uses a combination of JavaScript libraries including jQuery 1.10.2, jQuery UI, WOW.js for animations, Owl Carousel for sliders, LightGallery for image galleries, and Swiper for homepage slides. The site loads moderately fast but could improve performance by updating libraries and optimizing scripts. Mobile optimization is good with responsive design elements. SEO is basic with meta tags and Open Graph tags present but no advanced structured data like JSON-LD detected. Accessibility is basic with no explicit ARIA roles or landmarks found. Hosting appears to be provided by websupport.sk as inferred from nameservers. The Google Maps integration is broken due to API key issues. Overall, the technical infrastructure is functional but shows signs of aging and could benefit from modernization and security hardening.
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.
