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

Středočeský kraj is the official regional government authority for the Central Bohemian Region in the Czech Republic. The website serves as a comprehensive portal providing residents and stakeholders with access to government services, news, projects, and contact information. It targets the general public and regional entities, offering transparent and accessible information about regional administration and initiatives. The business model is public service oriented, focusing on information dissemination and citizen engagement. Technically, the website is built on the Liferay CMS platform with modern web technologies including React and Alloy UI. It integrates analytics tools such as Google Analytics and AppDynamics for performance monitoring and user behavior analysis. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization, accessibility, and SEO practices, ensuring a positive user experience across devices. From a security perspective, the site employs HTTPS with strong SSL configuration and security headers, including Content-Security-Policy with nonce support. Forms appear to be secured via the Liferay framework's built-in protections. However, there is room for improvement in cookie consent mechanisms and explicit vulnerability disclosure policies. No critical vulnerabilities or suspicious activities were detected. Overall, the website is a trustworthy and professional government portal with a strong security posture and good compliance with privacy regulations. Strategic recommendations include implementing explicit cookie consent, publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy, and enhancing incident response contact visibility to further strengthen trust and compliance.

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

5 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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, YouTube, Google APIs

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  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 Central Bohemian Region government maintains a strong market position as a regional authority with a large audience comprising residents, businesses, and public institutions. Its competitive advantage lies in comprehensive digital services and transparent communication. Revenue streams are primarily public funding, with no commercial activities. The partnership ecosystem includes multiple specialized portals for safety, transport, education, and public contracts, enhancing service delivery. Growth indicators include ongoing digital modernization and active social media engagement. The website reflects a mature digital presence aligned with government standards.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, Content-Security-Policy, and other standard security headers. The use of nonce for inline scripts reduces XSS risks. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were identified. Compliance with GDPR is evident through dedicated policy pages. However, the absence of a vulnerability disclosure page and incident response contacts limits transparency. The site benefits from the security features of the Liferay platform but should enhance user consent mechanisms and public security communication to improve overall security culture.

Recommendations

  1. Implement an explicit cookie consent banner to comply fully with privacy regulations.
  2. Publish a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt page to encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Add clear incident response contact information for security issues.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies for vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance security headers with reporting and stricter policies where applicable.

Technical notes

Notes

The website leverages a robust CMS platform (Liferay) combined with React and Alloy UI for frontend components. It uses modern JavaScript modules and asynchronous loading to optimize performance. The site is mobile responsive and accessible, with semantic HTML and ARIA roles. Analytics and monitoring tools are integrated for performance and user behavior insights. While performance is moderate, there is potential for optimization in resource loading and caching. The technical stack is well-suited for a government portal, balancing functionality and security. Technical risks are minimal but should be managed through continuous updates and security reviews.
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.
