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

Desk Kreativne Europe – Ured MEDIA Hrvatske is the official Croatian office supporting the Creative Europe MEDIA sub-programme. It serves Croatian audiovisual creators, film and TV professionals, and video game authors by providing information, organizing workshops, and facilitating access to EU funding opportunities. The website reflects a well-established entity with over 15 years of operation, consistent with its domain age and WHOIS data. The business model is non-profit and government-supported, focusing on cultural and media sector development within Croatia and the EU framework. The target audience includes professionals and organizations in the audiovisual and cultural sectors seeking EU MEDIA programme support. Technically, the website is built on the Webflow CMS platform, utilizing modern web technologies such as jQuery, Google reCAPTCHA, Google Tag Manager, and Plausible Analytics. Hosting and DNS are managed via Cloudflare, ensuring reliable performance and security. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and SEO-friendly, with bilingual content in Croatian and English. The presence of accessibility features and cookie consent mechanisms indicates a mature digital infrastructure. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses reCAPTCHA to protect forms from abuse. However, explicit security headers are not detected in the HTML content, suggesting room for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found. Privacy compliance is supported by visible privacy and cookie policies, with GDPR considerations addressed. Contact information is clearly provided, enhancing trust and transparency. Overall, the website presents a low-risk profile with a strong business credibility and good technical implementation. It effectively serves its niche audience with relevant content and services. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, formalizing incident response policies, and maintaining up-to-date third-party components to sustain security and compliance standards.

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

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

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 website positions Desk Kreativne Europe – Ured MEDIA Hrvatske as a key national player in the Creative Europe MEDIA programme ecosystem. It leverages partnerships with the Croatian Audiovisual Centre and the European Commission to deliver funding information, workshops, and events. The business operates as a cultural support office, targeting audiovisual professionals and creators in Croatia and the broader European market. Its competitive advantage lies in official EU backing and long-standing presence since 2008. Revenue streams are likely public funding and EU grants. The partnership ecosystem includes EU bodies and national cultural institutions. Growth indicators include active event scheduling and regular news updates. The website supports bilingual communication, expanding reach and inclusivity.

Security posture

The security posture of the website is solid with HTTPS enforced and Google reCAPTCHA protecting user input forms. No signs of malware, phishing, or exposed credentials were detected. The absence of explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), X-Frame-Options, or HSTS suggests potential enhancement areas. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are not publicly documented, which could be a compliance gap. GDPR compliance is indicated through privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the site demonstrates a responsible security culture but would benefit from formalizing security policies and implementing additional HTTP security headers.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and scripts to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance privacy policy details to explicitly cover data retention and user rights under GDPR.
  5. Maintain and promote accessibility features and cookie consent mechanisms to ensure compliance and user trust.

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.
