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

KRAS (Klub reklamných agentúr Slovenska) is a Slovak association that unites the most successful and productive advertising agencies in the Slovak market. It aims to elevate the quality of Slovak advertising and marketing communication, contributing positively to the market economy. The website presents a professional and well-structured digital presence, showcasing key activities such as creative awards (Zlatý klinec), marketing effectiveness awards (EFFIE Slovakia), agency rankings (TAAS), and fair tender initiatives. The target audience primarily includes advertising agencies and marketing professionals in Slovakia. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern plugins like Yoast SEO, Contact Form 7, and Google Tag Manager, indicating a mature digital infrastructure. The site is mobile-optimized and uses lazy loading for performance. However, some accessibility features are basic, and there is room for improvement in security headers and privacy compliance. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS with a good SSL configuration and secure forms. However, it lacks explicit security headers and does not provide privacy or cookie policies, which are compliance gaps. No vulnerabilities or malicious content were detected. The WHOIS data aligns well with the business claims, supporting legitimacy. Overall, KRAS's website is a credible and professional platform for the Slovak advertising community but should enhance privacy compliance and security best practices to improve 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

      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

KRAS holds a strong market position as the leading association of Slovak advertising agencies, providing value through prestigious awards, rankings, and industry standards. Its business model is membership-based, focusing on collaboration and promotion of excellence in advertising. Revenue streams likely include membership fees and event sponsorships. The organization targets advertising agencies and marketing professionals, fostering growth and innovation in the Slovak advertising sector. The presence of multiple partner agencies listed on the site indicates a broad partnership ecosystem. The organization's longevity (30+ years) and active event calendar demonstrate stability and ongoing relevance in the market.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security posture with HTTPS enforced and secure form handling. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces its defense-in-depth. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which limits transparency and preparedness. Privacy compliance is weak due to missing privacy and cookie policies and lack of consent mechanisms. Overall, the security maturity is adequate for a non-critical informational site but should be improved to meet best practices and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with GDPR-compliant consent mechanisms.
  2. Implement standard security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to enhance protection.
  3. Add a security.txt file and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Regularly audit and update all plugins and dependencies to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve inclusivity and compliance with standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using a modern tech stack including Yoast SEO for search optimization, Contact Form 7 for form management, and Google Tag Manager for analytics. It employs lazy loading for images and uses Slider Revolution for interactive content. The site is mobile responsive with good navigation clarity and professional design. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in caching and asset optimization. No hosting provider details were detected. The site lacks advanced accessibility features but meets basic standards. SEO is well addressed with meta tags, Open Graph, and structured data (JSON-LD). Technical risks are low but could be reduced further by improving security headers and privacy compliance.
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.
