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

Kormidlo.cz is a Czech non-profit online catalog managed by the organization Econnect, providing a curated directory of links related to civil society topics such as human rights, social development, environment, culture, and the non-profit sector. Established in 2000, it serves as a resource hub for NGOs, activists, researchers, and the general public interested in civic issues. The website offers categorized content and allows users to submit or suggest edits to links, supported by EU funding disclaimers and managed with a custom CMS called Toolkit. Technically, the website employs standard web technologies including HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, with integrations of Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and Google Adsense for tracking and monetization. The site is hosted by Econnect's own hosting services and uses HTTPS for secure communication. However, the design is basic and somewhat dated, with limited mobile optimization and accessibility features. SEO practices are basic but functional. From a security perspective, the site benefits from HTTPS and a cookie consent mechanism compliant with EU regulations. However, it lacks advanced security headers and does not provide explicit privacy policies, terms of service, or vulnerability disclosure information. Contact information is limited to a single email address, with no phone or physical address details. No WAF or blocking mechanisms are detected, and the site content is safe with no adult or questionable material. Overall, Kormidlo.cz is a legitimate, stable, and moderately secure non-profit resource website with room for improvement in privacy compliance, security hardening, and user experience enhancements.

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

  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

Kormidlo.cz occupies a niche position as a specialized catalog for civil society and non-profit organizations in the Czech Republic. Its competitive advantage lies in its long-standing presence since 2000 and its focus on curated, categorized content relevant to NGOs and civic actors. The business model is informational and community-driven, relying on user submissions and EU funding support. The target audience includes non-profit organizations, activists, researchers, and socially engaged citizens. The partnership ecosystem includes Econnect as the managing organization and EU funding bodies. Growth potential may be limited by dated technology and lack of modern engagement features, but the site maintains relevance through its focused content and trusted domain age.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with HTTPS enabled and cookie consent implemented, reflecting compliance with EU privacy regulations. However, the absence of standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and others reduces its defense against common web attacks. The lack of a published security policy or vulnerability disclosure process limits transparency and incident response readiness. No exposed sensitive data or known vulnerabilities are evident from the content. The site would benefit from enhanced security controls, formalized incident response contacts, and improved privacy documentation to raise its security maturity level.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve transparency and compliance.
  2. Add standard security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, Referrer-Policy) to enhance protection against common web threats.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting and incident response.
  4. Expand contact information to include phone numbers and physical addresses to improve business credibility and user trust.
  5. Modernize website design and improve mobile responsiveness and accessibility to enhance user experience and SEO.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a custom CMS named Toolkit, hosted by Econnect's own hosting services. It relies on classic web technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) and integrates Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and Adsense for analytics and advertising. The site loads moderately fast but shows signs of dated design and limited mobile optimization. SEO is basic with meta keywords and description tags but lacks advanced structured data or Open Graph tags. Accessibility features are minimal. The cookie consent mechanism is implemented via a third-party script. There is no evidence of modern JavaScript frameworks or advanced backend technologies. Overall, the technical infrastructure is functional but could benefit from modernization and improved security hardening.
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.
