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

Obec Kovalovice operates an official municipal website serving the local community in the Czech Republic. The site provides comprehensive information about local government activities, public services, news updates, and contact details. It targets residents and visitors seeking municipal information and services. The business model is that of a public sector local government portal, focusing on transparency and community engagement. The website maintains a consistent brand identity with the official municipal crest and provides trust signals such as official contact information and partner links. Technically, the website employs a modern technology stack including jQuery, Bootstrap, Swiper.js, and Leaflet.js for mapping. It is built on the Galileo CMS platform, optimized for mobile devices, and includes accessibility features. The site loads with moderate performance and has good SEO practices. Privacy and cookie policies are implemented with GDPR compliance, and a cookie consent mechanism is active. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS with excellent SSL configuration and no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. However, it lacks explicit security policy documentation and incident response contact channels. Security headers are not explicitly detected, suggesting room for improvement in hardening the site against common web threats. Overall, the website is trustworthy, professionally maintained, and suitable for its public sector purpose. Strategic recommendations include publishing a security policy, adding incident response contacts, enhancing security headers, and continuing regular security audits to maintain compliance and protect user data.

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

7 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 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

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

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 municipality of Kovalovice positions itself as a local government authority providing essential services and information to its residents. Its competitive advantage lies in its official status and comprehensive digital presence, including event calendars, public announcements, and service reservation systems. Revenue streams are typical for a municipal entity, primarily funded by public budgets. The target customer segment is local residents and visitors. The website's partnership ecosystem includes regional government bodies, local schools, and associations, enhancing community integration. The site reflects a stable operation with a focus on transparency and public engagement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and no evident vulnerabilities in the frontend code. Privacy compliance is well addressed with GDPR-aligned policies and cookie consent. However, the absence of a published security policy and incident response contacts indicates gaps in transparency and preparedness. Security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), X-Frame-Options, and HSTS are not detected, which could improve defense against common web attacks. No signs of malware or phishing were found. The site should consider formalizing its security governance and incident response mechanisms to enhance trust and resilience.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and user guidance.
  2. Add clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and configure security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options.
  4. Conduct regular vulnerability assessments and update third-party libraries promptly.
  5. Enhance user trust by displaying certifications or compliance badges if applicable.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern and well-supported technology stack with jQuery, Bootstrap 4, Swiper.js for sliders, Highslide for image handling, Mmenu for mobile menus, and Leaflet.js for interactive maps. The CMS platform is Galileo, which is specialized for municipal websites. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with a clear navigation structure. Performance is moderate, likely due to multiple JS libraries and image assets. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured navigation. There is an opportunity to improve technical security by adding HTTP security headers and optimizing resource loading for faster performance.
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.
