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

The website hvs.hr represents a Croatian entity with a domain registered since 2000, indicating a well-established presence. The site uses standard web technologies such as jQuery and Google Analytics, and is hosted behind Cloudflare DNS, suggesting a modern infrastructure. However, the site lacks explicit privacy and cookie policies, as well as clear contact information, which impacts its privacy compliance and user trust. The security posture is moderate with HTTPS enabled but missing important security headers and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms. Overall, the site is professional and safe for general audiences but would benefit from enhanced privacy and security practices to improve compliance and trustworthiness.

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

8 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

    • 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

  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 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';…

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 domain is registered under CARNET, a Croatian academic network, consistent with the website's Croatian origin. The site appears to serve a business or institutional audience in Croatia, likely related to government or education sectors given the registrar and domain age. The absence of detailed business information and contact details limits deeper business intelligence insights. The site’s market position appears stable but not strongly differentiated online. The use of Google Analytics and Tag Manager indicates some marketing and user tracking capabilities, though transparency is limited.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS, which is a fundamental security requirement. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces its defense against common web attacks. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is provided, which may hinder effective security incident management. The lack of privacy and cookie policies also indicates compliance gaps with GDPR and related regulations. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided content. Overall, the security posture is moderate but requires improvements in headers, policies, and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear consent mechanisms to comply with GDPR.
  2. Add security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection.
  3. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Provide clear and accessible contact information including security incident contacts to improve trust and incident response.
  5. Enhance accessibility and SEO metadata to improve user experience and search engine visibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack including jQuery and Google Analytics, hosted behind Cloudflare DNS which provides reliable DNS and potential CDN benefits. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design elements. Performance appears moderate based on included scripts and CSS. However, the site lacks advanced frameworks or CMS indicators, suggesting a custom or lightweight implementation. Technical debt is minimal but the absence of security headers and privacy mechanisms indicates areas for modernization. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could be enhanced with improved security and compliance 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.
