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

Národné športové centrum (NŠC) is a Slovak government-affiliated organization dedicated to supporting sports development, athlete diagnostics, education, and sports information systems. The website serves as a comprehensive portal for news, events, athlete profiles, educational resources, and multimedia content, targeting athletes, sports professionals, and the general public interested in Slovak sports. The organization is positioned as a key national sports authority with official backing from the Ministry of Tourism and Sports of Slovakia. Technically, the website is built using modern web technologies including Next.js and React, with integrations for Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and Osano CMP for cookie consent management. The site is mobile-optimized, well-structured, and uses HTTPS with good SSL configuration. However, some security headers are not explicitly detected, and no dedicated security or incident response policies are published. From a security perspective, the site follows good practices such as HTTPS enforcement, use of reCAPTCHA on forms, and cookie consent mechanisms. No critical vulnerabilities or suspicious patterns were detected. Privacy compliance is good with a clear privacy policy and cookie consent. Business credibility is strong due to official government affiliation, clear contact information, and consistent branding. Overall, the website presents a professional, trustworthy, and content-rich platform with moderate to good technical and security posture. Strategic improvements could focus on enhancing security headers, publishing security policies, and improving accessibility features to further strengthen trust and 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

    • 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

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

NŠC operates as a government-funded entity focused on sports performance and development in Slovakia. Its market position is authoritative within the national sports ecosystem, providing services such as diagnostics, education, and athlete support. The business model revolves around public funding and partnerships, with additional revenue likely from e-commerce via the linked e-shop. The target customers include athletes, sports clubs, educational institutions, and sports enthusiasts. The organization demonstrates growth through active content publishing, multimedia engagement, and partnerships with sport performance associations. The presence on multiple social media platforms and a dedicated e-shop indicates a diversified engagement strategy. The company is relatively young (founded 2020) but well-established in its niche.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and use of Google reCAPTCHA to protect forms from abuse. Cookie consent is managed via a reputable CMP (Osano), supporting GDPR compliance. However, explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options are not visibly implemented, which could be improved to mitigate risks such as clickjacking and MIME sniffing. No incident response or security contact information is published, which is a gap in transparency and readiness. The use of third-party tracking scripts is standard but should be regularly audited. Overall, the site is secure but could benefit from enhanced header policies and published security governance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Conduct regular audits of third-party scripts and dependencies to identify and mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance website accessibility features to comply with standards and improve user experience for all users.
  5. Consider adding a terms of service page to clarify user rights and obligations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern React/Next.js framework, enabling server-side rendering and good SEO performance. It uses asynchronous loading for analytics and tracking scripts to optimize performance. Hosting is provided by nichosting.sk, a Slovak hosting provider, consistent with the site's regional focus. The site is mobile responsive with good navigation clarity and multimedia integration. Performance is moderate, with potential for optimization in image loading and script management. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or headless approach. Technical risks are low but include missing security headers and potential dependency vulnerabilities. Opportunities exist to improve accessibility and implement progressive web app features for enhanced user engagement.
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.
