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

MTX Group a.s. is a prominent industrial and trading holding company based in the Czech Republic, established in 2013. The company manages a diversified portfolio of subsidiaries operating in metals, energy commodities, packaging, trading, and industrial services sectors. It holds a strong market position in Central Europe, particularly in commodity trading and manufacturing. The website presents detailed information about its subsidiaries and business areas, targeting industrial partners, investors, and commercial clients. Technically, the website employs modern JavaScript frameworks (likely Vue.js), integrates Google Analytics and Tag Manager for tracking, and uses Google reCAPTCHA for bot protection. The site is mobile-optimized with good SEO practices and a cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR requirements. However, it lacks explicit privacy and terms of service pages, and security headers are not detected. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and standard Google services for analytics and bot mitigation, but could improve by implementing security headers, publishing a security policy, and providing vulnerability disclosure information. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the content. Overall, MTX Group's website is professional, trustworthy, and business-focused, with room for improvement in privacy transparency and security best practices to enhance compliance and user trust.

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

  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

      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

MTX Group operates as a holding company with a broad portfolio of subsidiaries specializing in metals production and trading, energy commodities, packaging, and industrial services including automation. The company leverages its diversified business model to serve multiple industrial sectors, maintaining a strong presence in Central Europe. Its subsidiaries cover a wide range of activities from aluminum forging to coal import/export and industrial automation, indicating a vertically integrated approach. The company targets industrial clients, partners, and investors, emphasizing sustainability and innovation in energy through its MTX Renewables subsidiary. The detailed listing of subsidiaries and their websites suggests a transparent and structured corporate ecosystem. The absence of direct sales or e-commerce on the website indicates a B2B focus. Strategic partnerships and a comprehensive digital presence support growth and market penetration.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security posture with HTTPS enabled and use of Google reCAPTCHA to prevent automated abuse. The presence of a cookie consent banner indicates awareness of GDPR compliance. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No explicit security or incident response policies are published, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file is found, which limits transparency and readiness for security incidents. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a corporate website but could be enhanced by adopting additional security best practices and publishing relevant policies.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the website footer.
  2. Implement and configure security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Create and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet recognized standards and improve user experience for all users.
  5. Provide explicit incident response contact information and security policy details to increase transparency and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern JavaScript technologies, likely Vue.js, and integrates Google Analytics and Tag Manager for tracking and marketing purposes. It uses Google reCAPTCHA for bot protection. The site loads CSS dynamically and employs SVG graphics for logos and icons, indicating a modern front-end design approach. Performance is moderate with some loading placeholders visible, suggesting asynchronous content loading. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive meta tags and scalable vector graphics. SEO is supported by meta tags including Open Graph data. However, no CMS is explicitly detected, and hosting provider details are not available. The site lacks some security headers and explicit privacy-related pages, indicating areas for technical improvement. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and functional corporate website.
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.
