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

The website kovidesign.sk represents a small personal business operated by Ján Kovács, specializing in creative web design, graphic design, and coding services. The site showcases a portfolio of recent projects, emphasizing bespoke web and e-commerce solutions primarily targeting Slovak-speaking clients and businesses seeking creative digital presence. The business model is service-oriented with a focus on personalized client engagement and creative output. Technically, the website employs standard web technologies including HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript with jQuery, and integrates Google Analytics and Tag Manager for visitor tracking. The site is mobile optimized with good navigation and SEO practices, though accessibility features are basic. Performance is moderate, with no CMS or advanced frameworks detected, indicating a lightweight custom build. From a security perspective, HTTPS is enabled ensuring encrypted communications. However, the absence of security headers and lack of privacy and cookie policies indicate compliance and security posture gaps. No forms or direct contact emails are present, limiting user engagement and transparency. The use of outdated jQuery version could pose minor risks. No WAF or blocking mechanisms are detected, and no vulnerabilities are apparent from the surface analysis. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy for its scale but would benefit from enhanced privacy compliance, improved security headers, and clearer contact information to strengthen user trust and regulatory adherence.

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

  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

Kovidesign operates as a small-scale creative agency led by an individual, Ján Kovács, focusing on web design and graphic services. The business targets local Slovak clients and small businesses needing custom web solutions and branding. The portfolio indicates a focus on e-commerce and visual identity projects, suggesting diversified revenue streams within digital creative services. The company leverages social media for brand presence but lacks formalized privacy and security policies, which may impact client trust and compliance. Growth potential lies in expanding service offerings and improving digital maturity, particularly in privacy and security domains.

Security posture

The current security posture is basic but functional. HTTPS is implemented, ensuring secure data transmission. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. No privacy or cookie policies are present, indicating GDPR compliance gaps. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are found, limiting transparency and readiness. The use of an outdated jQuery version may expose the site to known vulnerabilities. Overall, the site is low risk but improvements are needed to meet modern security and privacy standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with visible consent mechanisms to ensure GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection.
  3. Update JavaScript libraries to latest stable versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  4. Provide clear contact information including company email and phone number to improve trust and user engagement.
  5. Consider publishing a security.txt file and establishing a vulnerability disclosure process to enhance security transparency.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using standard web technologies without a CMS, relying on custom HTML, CSS, and JavaScript with jQuery 1.11.1. It uses Google Fonts for typography and integrates Google Analytics and Tag Manager for tracking. The site is mobile responsive and SEO optimized with proper meta tags. Performance is moderate, with no advanced frameworks detected. Accessibility features are basic and could be improved. The hosting provider is not explicitly identified. Overall, the technical implementation is solid for a small personal portfolio site but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security practices.
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.
