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

The website mv.gov.cz is the official portal of the Ministry of Interior of the Czech Republic, serving as a central hub for public administration, internal security, migration, and eGovernment services. It targets Czech citizens, foreign residents, public institutions, and media, providing comprehensive information and services related to public order, personal documentation, migration, and legislative matters. The site is well-branded with consistent government identity and offers multilingual navigation options including English. Technically, the site employs legacy jQuery alongside modern tracking tools such as Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics, with HTTPS enforced and a Content Security Policy header present, indicating a solid security baseline. However, some outdated libraries and missing advanced security headers suggest room for improvement. Privacy compliance is well addressed with clear cookie consent mechanisms and a comprehensive privacy policy aligned with GDPR requirements. Contact is primarily facilitated via web forms, with no direct email or phone contacts explicitly published. WHOIS data is unavailable due to registry policies, but the domain's .gov.cz TLD and content authenticity strongly support legitimacy. Overall, the site demonstrates a mature digital presence with good security posture and compliance, suitable for a government entity.

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

6 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

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 Ministry of Interior operates as a key government institution in the Czech Republic, focusing on internal affairs including public safety, migration, and administrative services. Its market position is authoritative and essential, with no commercial competition. The business model is service-oriented, funded by the state, delivering regulatory, informational, and operational services to citizens and institutions. The website reflects a large organizational scale with extensive content and service offerings. Partnerships with police, firefighters, and other government agencies are evident through linked domains. The site supports transparency and public engagement through news, legislative updates, and public tenders. Growth indicators include digitalization efforts such as eGovernment and data box systems. Strategic observations highlight the importance of maintaining up-to-date security and accessibility standards to support public trust and operational continuity.

Security posture

The website exhibits a good security posture with mandatory HTTPS, a Content Security Policy enforcing upgrade of insecure requests, and no visible exposure of sensitive data. The use of Google Tag Manager and Analytics is standard but requires ongoing monitoring for privacy compliance. The presence of legacy jQuery 1.1.3.1 is a potential vulnerability vector and should be updated. No explicit security or incident response policies are published, and no security.txt file is found, which limits transparency for vulnerability reporting. The site lacks some recommended security headers such as X-Frame-Options and X-Content-Type-Options, which could mitigate clickjacking and MIME sniffing attacks. Overall, the site is secure for general public use but would benefit from enhanced security controls and published policies to improve resilience and trust.

Recommendations

  1. Update legacy JavaScript libraries such as jQuery to current supported versions to reduce vulnerability risks.
  2. Implement additional HTTP security headers including X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Referrer-Policy.
  3. Publish a security.txt file and a clear vulnerability disclosure policy to facilitate responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance privacy transparency by detailing data retention policies and cookie usage in the privacy policy.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to ensure compliance with GDPR and minimize user tracking.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a mix of legacy and modern web technologies, including an outdated jQuery version (1.1.3.1) and Google Tag Manager for analytics and tracking. The HTML structure is valid and includes meta tags for language, content type, and SEO. The site enforces HTTPS and uses a Content Security Policy header to upgrade insecure requests, enhancing security. Performance appears moderate, with some room for optimization especially for mobile responsiveness. Accessibility features such as skip links and labeled form elements are present, supporting usability. The site does not appear to use a commercial CMS or popular frameworks, suggesting a custom or government-specific platform. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. Overall, the technical infrastructure is stable but could benefit from modernization and performance tuning.
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.
