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

Hrej.cz is a well-established Czech gaming news and review portal founded in 1999, specializing in delivering gaming industry news, reviews, podcasts, and hardware coverage. The website targets gaming enthusiasts primarily in the Czech Republic and maintains a consistent brand presence with active social media channels. Technically, the site employs modern web technologies including Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Facebook SDK, and ad networks such as DoubleClick and Richmedia.cz SSP. The site is hosted with reputable providers and uses HTTPS with good SSL configuration, ensuring secure user connections. Security posture is solid with standard best practices, although explicit security policies and incident response contacts are not published. Privacy compliance is partially addressed with a cookie consent mechanism but lacks a dedicated privacy policy and terms of service pages. Overall, the website is professional, content-rich, and trustworthy, with room for improvement in privacy and security transparency.

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

6 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 Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube, Cloudflare, Google APIs, Google Ads

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  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

Hrej.cz holds a strong market position as a leading Czech gaming media outlet with a diversified content offering including news, reviews, and podcasts. Its business model relies on advertising and content monetization. The company benefits from a long domain age and consistent registration data, indicating stability and legitimacy. The target audience is gamers and gaming fans in the Czech Republic. The site leverages partnerships with major ad networks and analytics providers to optimize revenue and user engagement. Growth indicators include active content updates and social media integration. However, the absence of explicit privacy and security policies may pose compliance risks as regulations evolve.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and use of modern security headers inferred. It employs consent management for cookies, aligning with GDPR requirements. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. However, the lack of published security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates gaps in transparency and readiness. Enhancing these areas would improve compliance and user trust. The site uses third-party scripts for analytics and advertising, which require ongoing monitoring to mitigate supply chain risks.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the homepage.
  2. Implement and publish a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure policy to facilitate responsible reporting.
  3. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all users.
  4. Explicitly configure and document security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Referrer-Policy, and Permissions-Policy.
  5. Provide clear incident response contact information, including security and abuse email addresses.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack with Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Facebook SDK, and multiple ad networks for monetization. It loads fonts from Google Fonts and icons from Material Icons, ensuring a consistent visual experience. Hosting is managed by Active24 and Websupport, reputable Czech providers. Performance is moderate with responsive design and mobile optimization evident. SEO is supported by proper meta tags, Open Graph, Twitter cards, and structured JSON-LD data. The site does not appear to use a common CMS, suggesting a custom or proprietary solution. Technical risks include reliance on multiple third-party scripts which require regular security reviews.
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.
