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

Město Chodov operates an official municipal website serving the residents and visitors of the town of Chodov in the Czech Republic. The site provides comprehensive information about local government activities, social and cultural services, practical information, and contact details. The website is clearly targeted at local citizens and stakeholders interested in municipal affairs. The business model is that of a government entity providing public services and information. The site maintains a consistent brand identity with the municipal crest and official contact information prominently displayed. Technically, the website uses a modern technology stack including jQuery, Bootstrap, Swiper.js, and Mmenu.js, likely built on the Galileo CMS platform. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and structured with good SEO practices. Cookie consent and GDPR compliance are implemented, reflecting awareness of privacy regulations. However, no advanced analytics or tracking scripts were detected, indicating a privacy-conscious approach. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and includes cookie consent mechanisms but lacks visible security headers in the HTML source. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were identified in the provided content. The absence of WHOIS data reduces trust slightly, but the official nature of the site and clear contact information support legitimacy. Overall, the security posture is moderate with room for improvement in security headers and formal security policies. The overall risk assessment is low, with the site serving as a trustworthy source of municipal information. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, maintaining up-to-date libraries, and publishing explicit security and incident response policies to 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

7 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 Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

      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

Město Chodov holds a stable position as the official government website for the town, providing essential services and information to its community. Its competitive advantage lies in its official status and comprehensive local content. The business model is public service-oriented, funded by municipal resources. Revenue streams are not applicable. The target customer segment is local residents and visitors seeking municipal information. Growth indicators include active content updates and partnerships with regional organizations. The partnership ecosystem is broad, including local action groups, social services, and cultural institutions, enhancing community engagement and service delivery. Strategic observations highlight a focus on transparency, accessibility, and community involvement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced, and cookie consent mechanisms are in place, supporting privacy compliance. However, the lack of visible security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options suggests potential areas for improvement. No explicit incident response or security policy pages were found, indicating a gap in formal security governance documentation. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. Compliance with GDPR is indicated through dedicated pages and contact points. Overall, the security culture appears cautious but could benefit from enhanced formalization and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to enhance defense-in-depth.
  2. Publish explicit security policies and incident response procedures on the website to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Regularly update all third-party libraries and frameworks to mitigate vulnerabilities from outdated components.
  4. Enhance monitoring and logging capabilities to detect and respond to security incidents promptly.
  5. Consider adding a dedicated vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern and well-supported technology stack featuring jQuery, Bootstrap 4, Swiper.js for sliders, and Mmenu.js for navigation menus. The use of Galileo CMS is inferred from footer references and URL patterns. The site is mobile responsive and accessible, with good SEO practices evident in meta tags and structured navigation. Performance is moderate, with no explicit indicators of slow loading but room for optimization. No advanced analytics or tracking scripts were detected, aligning with privacy considerations. Technical risks include the absence of security headers and potential outdated libraries, which should be addressed to maintain operational security and 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.
