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

Institut intermédií is an academic and research institute based in Prague, Czech Republic, focusing on the intersection of technology and art. Affiliated with Czech Technical University and the Academy of Performing Arts, it offers study programs, research projects, events, and space rental services. The website is professionally designed, targeting students, researchers, and artists interested in interdisciplinary studies. Technically, the site is built on WordPress using modern frameworks like Foundation and Leaflet.js, with moderate performance and good mobile optimization. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced, but lacks advanced security headers and formal privacy/cookie policies. WHOIS data is unavailable, which slightly reduces trustworthiness, but institutional affiliations and clear contact information support legitimacy. Overall, the site is a credible educational resource with room for improvement in privacy compliance and security best practices.

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

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"

    • 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 institute occupies a niche position in the education and research sector, combining technology and art disciplines. Its business model revolves around academic programs, research collaborations, and event hosting. The target audience includes students and academic professionals. The website reflects a small-sized organization with consistent branding and trust signals such as university affiliations. External partnerships with Czech Technical University and AMU are evident. The absence of WHOIS data is a limitation but does not detract significantly from the business credibility given the content and contact details.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses secure forms, which are positive security indicators. However, the absence of security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a gap. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The site lacks a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file, which could improve incident response readiness. Privacy compliance is minimal, with no cookie consent mechanism or detailed privacy policy. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but could benefit from implementing recommended headers and formal privacy controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Add a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to comply with GDPR and improve user trust.
  3. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible security reporting.
  4. Improve accessibility features to meet standards and enhance user experience for all visitors.
  5. Verify and update WHOIS registration data to improve domain trustworthiness and transparency.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses WordPress CMS with Foundation CSS framework and jQuery for frontend interactions. Leaflet.js is used for interactive maps. Google Analytics is integrated for traffic analysis. The site loads external fonts from Google Fonts and uses CDN-hosted libraries for performance. The HTML is valid and the site is mobile responsive with good navigation clarity. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in caching and asset optimization. No critical technical debt or deprecated technologies were detected, though Google Plus links are outdated. Hosting provider details are not discernible from the content.
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.
