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

Město Úvaly operates an official municipal website serving the citizens, visitors, and investors of the town of Úvaly in the Czech Republic. The site provides comprehensive information about municipal services, news, events, public tenders, and interactive resources. It targets local residents and stakeholders, offering an online citizen zone for convenient service payments and notifications. The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern tech stack including Bootstrap and jQuery, and integrates Google Analytics and Google Translate for analytics and multilingual support. The design is professional, mobile-optimized, and provides clear navigation and relevant content. Security posture is good with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent mechanisms in place, although some security headers could be improved. WHOIS data is unavailable, likely due to registry restrictions, which slightly impacts trust but the official nature of the site and consistent branding support legitimacy. Overall, the site is a reliable government portal with moderate technical maturity and good privacy 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

8 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 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

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 itself as the authoritative digital presence of the Úvaly municipal government, focusing on delivering public services and information. Its business model is non-commercial, centered on government service delivery. The site supports local governance transparency through public tenders, budget information, and strategic documents. It fosters community engagement via news, events, and participatory budgeting links. The partnership ecosystem includes regional government portals and local safety initiatives. The site’s growth indicators include active content updates and integration of online citizen services. The platform’s reliance on WordPress and common plugins suggests ease of maintenance but requires ongoing security vigilance.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and cookie consent implemented, aligning with GDPR requirements. The use of security plugins like stop-user-enumeration indicates awareness of common WordPress vulnerabilities. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The lack of a security.txt file or explicit vulnerability disclosure policy limits transparency in incident response readiness. Overall, the site maintains a secure baseline appropriate for a government portal but should enhance header policies and formalize vulnerability disclosure.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Regularly update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to patch known vulnerabilities and reduce attack surface.
  3. Establish and publish a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure and improve incident response transparency.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet WCAG standards, improving usability for all users including those with disabilities.
  5. Conduct periodic security audits and penetration testing to proactively identify and remediate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS, leveraging Bootstrap for responsive design and jQuery for client-side scripting. It uses Smart Slider 3 for interactive content and integrates Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager for visitor tracking. The site loads external fonts from Google Fonts and supports multilingual translation via Google Translate. Performance is moderate with standard optimization practices. The site is mobile-optimized and SEO-friendly with proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). Technical debt appears low but reliance on multiple plugins necessitates vigilant maintenance to avoid security risks. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the site’s functional and user experience goals effectively.
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.
