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

Moravskoslezský kraj operates as the official regional government authority for the Moravian-Silesian region in the Czech Republic. The website serves as a comprehensive portal offering public services, information on regional development, social services, healthcare, education, transport, and environmental initiatives. It targets residents, businesses, and visitors of the region, providing access to grants, administrative procedures, and community engagement. The entity holds multiple internationally recognized certifications including ISO 9001, ISO 27001, ISO 50001, and EMAS, underscoring its commitment to quality, information security, energy management, and environmental standards. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies such as Matomo analytics for privacy-conscious user tracking, jQuery, Swiper.js for interactive elements, and LightGallery for media display. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and SEO-friendly with proper meta tags and structured navigation. HTTPS is enforced, and security best practices are observed, although some security headers could be improved. The absence of a cookie consent mechanism is a minor privacy compliance gap. Security posture is strong with certified information security management systems in place, no visible vulnerabilities, and secure form handling. However, the lack of publicly available WHOIS data reduces transparency and slightly impacts trustworthiness. No explicit incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies are published, which could be enhanced to improve security culture and readiness. Overall, the website is a well-maintained, professional government portal with strong business credibility and technical implementation. Strategic improvements in privacy compliance and transparency around security policies would further strengthen its position and trust with users.

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

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

Moravskoslezský kraj holds a strong market position as the regional government authority responsible for a broad spectrum of public services and regional development initiatives. Its competitive advantage lies in its comprehensive service offerings, certified management systems, and digital presence that facilitates citizen engagement and administrative efficiency. Revenue streams are primarily government-funded, focusing on social, healthcare, environmental, and infrastructural projects. The target customer segments include local residents, businesses, social service beneficiaries, and tourists. Growth indicators include active project portfolios and strategic partnerships with regional and EU entities. The partnership ecosystem is diverse, involving cultural, environmental, and innovation centers. Strategic observations highlight a focus on digital transformation, sustainability, and community support.

Security posture

The security maturity level of the website is high, supported by ISO 27001 certification and secure HTTPS implementation. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. The use of Matomo analytics reflects a privacy-conscious approach. However, the absence of cookie consent banners and incident response disclosures indicates room for improvement in compliance and transparency. Data protection practices are documented in a comprehensive privacy policy aligned with GDPR. Incident response readiness is unclear due to lack of published policies. The security culture appears mature but could benefit from enhanced communication and user awareness mechanisms.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a visible cookie consent banner to ensure full GDPR compliance and user transparency.
  2. Publish an incident response and vulnerability disclosure policy to improve security transparency and readiness.
  3. Enhance HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen defense-in-depth.
  4. Provide explicit contact information for the Data Protection Officer to facilitate data subject rights and inquiries.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern technology stack including jQuery, Swiper.js, and LightGallery, supported by custom JavaScript and CSS for layout and interactivity. It uses Matomo for analytics, indicating a preference for privacy-respecting tools. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with good SEO practices evident in meta tags and structured navigation. Performance is moderate, with deferred loading of scripts to improve page load times. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. Technical risks are minimal but include the need for improved security headers and cookie consent mechanisms to align with best practices and regulatory requirements.
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.
