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

Michal Danko operates as a freelance full stack web developer based in Košice, Slovakia, with over 10 years of experience. The website serves as a professional portfolio showcasing his skills in web development technologies including WordPress, WooCommerce, Laravel, and front-end frameworks. The business model is focused on freelance client engagements, targeting clients seeking custom web development and design services. The website is well-structured and presents a clear overview of services and past projects, positioning Michal as an experienced independent developer in the Slovak market. Technically, the website uses a modern tech stack with HTML5, CSS3, Bootstrap, JavaScript, PHP frameworks, and CMS platforms like WordPress and October CMS. Hosting is provided by Websupport, a Slovak hosting provider, with domain registration consistent with the business location. Google Analytics is used for visitor tracking, and Google Fonts are loaded for typography. The site is mobile optimized and performs moderately well, though accessibility features are basic. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate and has domain transfer protection enabled. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, and no security headers were detected, which could improve security posture. There are no privacy or cookie policies present, indicating gaps in GDPR compliance. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is provided. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be enhanced with additional best practices. The overall risk assessment is low to moderate. The site is professional and trustworthy but lacks formal privacy and cookie policies and some security hardening. Strategic recommendations include adding privacy and cookie policies, enabling DNSSEC, implementing security headers, and providing vulnerability disclosure information to improve compliance and security maturity.

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

10 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

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

Michal Danko operates as a solo freelance web developer with a focus on full stack development and WordPress ecosystem services. The business targets small to medium clients needing custom website development, theme and plugin creation, and e-commerce solutions via WooCommerce. The portfolio demonstrates a steady stream of projects primarily in Slovakia, indicating a localized market presence. The business model is service-based with revenue generated from freelance contracts. There is no indication of parent companies or subsidiaries. The website branding is consistent and professional, supporting credibility. The use of Google Analytics suggests an interest in understanding visitor behavior and marketing effectiveness. The absence of formal policies may limit appeal to larger corporate clients requiring compliance assurances.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security posture. HTTPS is enforced, and domain transfer protection is enabled, which are positive indicators. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options leaves the site vulnerable to certain attacks. No privacy or cookie policies are present, which is a compliance gap under GDPR. There is no visible incident response or vulnerability disclosure mechanism, limiting transparency and preparedness. The use of Google Analytics introduces moderate user tracking without clear privacy disclosures. Overall, the security culture appears informal, typical for a small freelance operation, but improvements are recommended to enhance trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Add a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  3. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Create and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Enhance privacy transparency regarding Google Analytics usage and consider cookie consent mechanisms.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a solid modern technology stack including HTML5, CSS3 with Sass, Bootstrap framework, JavaScript, PHP with Laravel and October CMS, and WordPress for content management. Hosting is provided by Websupport, a regional Slovak hosting provider, with domain registration consistent with the business location. Google Fonts and Google Analytics are integrated for typography and analytics respectively. The site is mobile responsive and well structured, but accessibility features are basic. Performance is moderate with no major issues detected. There is room for technical improvements in security hardening and privacy compliance. No deprecated or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided content.
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.
