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

iEKONOM.cz is a Czech online magazine specializing in economics, finance, and business topics. It targets Czech-speaking professionals and individuals interested in economic news and financial insights. The website operates on WordPress CMS, leveraging popular SEO and analytics plugins to enhance visibility and user engagement. The content is professionally presented with regular updates, focusing on news, editor picks, and analytical articles relevant to e-commerce and finance sectors. Technically, the site uses modern web technologies including jQuery and Google Analytics, and is mobile optimized with a moderate performance profile. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and secure login forms, but lacks advanced security headers and visible privacy or cookie policies, which are critical for compliance and trust. The domain WHOIS data indicates the domain was registered in 2018 but currently shows an expired status, which raises concerns about domain maintenance and legitimacy. Overall, the site is functional and professional but would benefit from improved privacy compliance and security hardening.

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

11 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

  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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

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

    • 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 website positions itself as a niche media outlet in the Czech Republic focusing on economic and financial news. Its business model is primarily content publishing supported by advertising and possibly newsletter subscriptions. The target audience includes business professionals, e-commerce operators, and finance enthusiasts. The site demonstrates consistent branding and content quality, with a focus on providing relevant and timely information. However, the lack of detailed business registration information and expired domain status may impact perceived credibility. There is no evidence of partnerships or subsidiaries from the data provided. The site uses standard digital marketing and analytics tools, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity.

Security posture

The security maturity level is moderate. HTTPS is properly implemented, and login forms include password recovery mechanisms. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security reduces protection against common web attacks. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Privacy compliance is weak due to missing privacy and cookie policies. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are not evident. The expired domain status is a notable risk factor that could affect site availability and trust. Overall, the site should enhance its security controls and compliance documentation to improve its security posture.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and display comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to ensure GDPR compliance.
  2. Renew domain registration promptly to avoid service disruption and improve trustworthiness.
  3. Add essential security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options) to harden the website against attacks.
  4. Enhance login security by enabling multi-factor authentication and monitoring for suspicious activities.
  5. Establish a vulnerability disclosure policy and incident response contact to improve security transparency.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 6.7.1 with a Newspaper theme and multiple plugins including td-composer, td-newsletter, and SEO tools like Yoast and All in One SEO. It uses jQuery 3.7.1 and Google Analytics for tracking. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and uses Google Fonts for typography. Performance is moderate with some inline CSS and JavaScript for UI enhancements. The site lacks advanced accessibility features but maintains basic usability. There is no evidence of CDN usage or advanced caching mechanisms in the provided data. The expired domain status is a technical risk that should be addressed immediately. Overall, the technical infrastructure is standard for a content publishing site but could benefit from performance and security optimizations.
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.
