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

Maxdorf.cz is a well-established Czech medical publishing house specializing in professional healthcare literature and educational materials. The website serves as a portal for news, book releases, and access to an e-commerce platform for purchasing specialized medical books. The target audience primarily consists of healthcare professionals, medical students, and specialists within the Czech Republic. The business operates a niche publishing model with a strong reputation supported by expert authors and multiple awards. Technically, the website uses a combination of classic JavaScript libraries (MooTools, jQuery) and modern media players (Flowplayer), with Google Analytics and Tag Manager for user tracking. The site is hosted by REG-ZONER, a reputable Czech registrar and hosting provider. Security posture is moderate, with HTTPS usage implied but lacking visible security headers and modern security policies. Privacy and cookie policies are absent, indicating compliance gaps with GDPR. Overall, the website is professional, content-rich, and trustworthy but would benefit from enhanced security and privacy compliance measures.

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

Maxdorf holds a strong position in the Czech medical publishing market, offering a broad catalog of specialized medical books authored by leading experts. Its business model combines publishing with direct e-commerce sales via a dedicated e-shop subdomain. The company targets healthcare professionals and students, providing educational content that supports clinical practice and specialist training. The presence of multiple awards and recognitions enhances its credibility and market standing. The partnership ecosystem includes related domains such as maxdorf.com for English content and eshop.maxdorf.cz for sales. The company appears to be a small but important player in the healthcare education sector in the Czech Republic.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security posture. HTTPS is used for external resources, but no explicit security headers were detected in the provided HTML content. The use of outdated JavaScript libraries like MooTools 1.2.1 and jQuery 1.12.4 may expose the site to known vulnerabilities if not properly patched. There is no visible privacy or cookie policy, which is a compliance risk under GDPR. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided. The site does not expose sensitive data in the HTML, which is positive. Overall, security best practices are partially implemented but require improvement to meet modern standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to ensure GDPR compliance.
  2. Add and configure security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Update JavaScript libraries to their latest secure versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  4. Provide clear contact information including security incident response contacts and vulnerability disclosure procedures.
  5. Enhance mobile optimization and accessibility features to improve user experience and compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a custom or unknown CMS with a technology stack including HTML5, CSS, JavaScript, MooTools 1.2.1, jQuery 1.12.4, and Flowplayer 7.0.4 for media playback. Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager are integrated for analytics and marketing purposes. Hosting is provided by REG-ZONER, a Czech domain registrar and hosting provider. Performance is moderate with basic mobile optimization and accessibility. SEO optimization is basic with standard meta tags but no advanced structured data or Open Graph tags detected. The site could benefit from modernization of its tech stack and improved performance tuning.
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.
