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

Město pod palcem is a comprehensive communication platform designed to facilitate rapid and dynamic interaction between municipalities and their citizens in the Czech Republic. The platform offers a modular system including mobile applications, issue reporting, surveys, payment processing, public transport information, and integration with existing city IT systems. It is well-established with multiple municipal clients and positive testimonials, positioning it as a trusted solution in the government technology sector. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with a modern but somewhat dated technology stack including Bootstrap and jQuery. The site is mobile-optimized and features standard web technologies and plugins such as Contact Form 7 and Google reCAPTCHA for spam protection. SEO and accessibility are adequately addressed, though some improvements could be made in security headers and updating libraries. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses reCAPTCHA on forms, but lacks explicit security headers and uses an outdated jQuery version that may expose it to vulnerabilities. The absence of WHOIS data reduces transparency and trust slightly, though the business references and content quality support legitimacy. Privacy compliance is partially met with a privacy policy linked externally but lacks a cookie consent mechanism. Overall, the website presents a professional and credible front for a government-focused technology service, with moderate technical maturity and some security improvements recommended to enhance 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

11 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"

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 pod palcem operates primarily in the government sector, providing municipalities with a digital communication platform that enhances citizen engagement and municipal service delivery. Its business model is B2G, focusing on modular software solutions that integrate with existing city IT infrastructure. The company Eternal s.r.o. is the parent entity, with a strong presence in the Czech municipal market, evidenced by multiple client references and awards. The platform's competitive advantage lies in its comprehensive feature set, modularity, and integration capabilities. Growth indicators include ongoing updates, new municipal clients, and positive user feedback. The partnership ecosystem includes media outlets and municipal websites that promote the platform. Strategic observations suggest focusing on security enhancements and expanding privacy compliance to maintain market leadership.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security posture with HTTPS enabled and use of Google reCAPTCHA to protect forms from spam. However, the use of an outdated jQuery version introduces potential vulnerabilities, and the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options weakens defense-in-depth. No incident response or security policy information is publicly available, indicating limited transparency in security governance. The lack of cookie consent mechanisms and incomplete privacy compliance could expose the organization to regulatory risks under GDPR. Overall, while basic security practices are in place, there is room for improvement in library updates, header implementation, and formal security documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Update all JavaScript libraries, especially jQuery, to the latest secure versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  2. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Introduce a cookie consent banner and detailed cookie policy to improve GDPR compliance and user transparency.
  4. Publish a clear security policy and incident response plan on the website to demonstrate security governance and readiness.
  5. Regularly audit WordPress plugins and themes for vulnerabilities and maintain timely updates to reduce attack surface.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 5.3.18 with a combination of Bootstrap, Font Awesome, and jQuery 1.12.4. It uses common plugins such as Contact Form 7 and Owl Carousel for UI components and user interaction. The site is mobile responsive and uses Google Fonts for typography. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous loading of some scripts like Google reCAPTCHA. However, the use of an outdated jQuery version and lack of modern security headers indicate technical debt and potential security risks. SEO is supported by All In One SEO Pack and structured data in JSON-LD format. The site lacks advanced performance optimizations such as HTTP/2 push or extensive caching headers visible in the HTML source. Overall, the technical infrastructure is functional but would benefit from modernization and security hardening.
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.
