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

Hrvatski savez za sportski ribolov na moru (HSSRM) is a well-established Croatian non-profit sports federation dedicated to marine sport fishing. Founded in 1953, it serves approximately 25,000 members and provides key services such as fishing permit distribution, organizing competitions, and educational programs. The website reflects a consistent brand and offers relevant content for its target audience of fishing enthusiasts in Croatia. Technically, the site uses modern web technologies including Bootstrap, jQuery, FontAwesome, and Leaflet.js, with integration of Facebook social plugins for community engagement. The site is moderately optimized for mobile and performance, with clear navigation and good content quality. Security posture is adequate but could be improved by adding security headers and formal policies. Privacy compliance is lacking as no privacy or cookie policies are present. WHOIS data confirms domain legitimacy and consistency with the organization's profile. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy but would benefit from enhanced privacy and security measures.

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. Network security

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

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

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

      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  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

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 · found on this site
  • 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

HSSRM holds a strong market position as the national authority for marine sport fishing in Croatia, leveraging a large membership base and government partnerships. Its business model focuses on non-profit community service, event management, and permit distribution. The organization maintains partnerships with government bodies such as ribarstvo.mps.hr and ribarstvo.hr for regulatory and permit functions. The website supports growth through event announcements, training programs, and a web shop link. The presence of a dedicated subdomain for competitions indicates operational maturity. The organization’s strategic focus on education and community engagement positions it well within its niche. However, the lack of visible privacy and security policies may pose compliance risks as regulations evolve.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with HTTPS assumed but no visible security headers such as Content Security Policy or HSTS. No forms collecting sensitive data are present on the main pages, reducing immediate risk. The use of external scripts like Facebook SDK introduces some tracking but no known vulnerabilities were detected. Absence of a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file limits transparency and incident response readiness. The WHOIS data is consistent and public, supporting trust. To improve security maturity, the organization should implement security headers, formalize privacy and cookie policies, and provide incident response contacts. Overall, the site is secure for informational purposes but lacks advanced security controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy to ensure GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Create and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve transparency and incident response.
  4. Regularly audit and update all third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and SEO optimization to improve user experience and reach.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a custom or unknown CMS with a modern tech stack including Bootstrap, jQuery, FontAwesome, and Leaflet.js for mapping. It uses Google Fonts and Facebook SDK for social integration. The site loads multimedia content such as videos and images efficiently with responsive design elements. Hosting appears to be managed under Croatian academic network infrastructure (CARNET) with DNS servers infoitdns.com. Performance is moderate with room for optimization. No major technical debt or deprecated technologies detected. The site lacks advanced analytics or tracking beyond Facebook SDK, indicating minimal user tracking. Overall, the technical implementation is solid but could benefit from enhanced security and privacy 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.
