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

Agentura ochrany přírody a krajiny ČR (AOPK ČR) is the official Czech government agency responsible for the protection and management of nature and landscape across the Czech Republic. The agency manages 25 protected landscape areas, national nature reserves, and monuments. The website serves as an information portal for the public, stakeholders, and government officials, providing resources on nature conservation, permits, and regional offices. The site is primarily in Czech with an English language option, reflecting its official and public service nature. Technically, the website is built on the Liferay CMS platform, utilizing modern frontend libraries such as jQuery, Bootstrap, React, and Clay UI. The site is mobile-optimized and features a structured navigation system. Performance is moderate, with no major technical issues detected. However, explicit privacy and cookie policies are not found, and no analytics or tracking scripts are evident in the provided content. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and shows no signs of exposed sensitive data or vulnerabilities in the visible content. Security headers are not explicitly detected, and no published security or incident response policies are found. The WHOIS data for the domain is missing, which is unusual and reduces domain registration trustworthiness, though the official .gov.cz domain and content strongly indicate legitimacy. Overall, the website is a professionally maintained government portal with good content quality and technical implementation but lacks visible privacy compliance documentation and WHOIS transparency. Strategic recommendations include publishing comprehensive privacy and cookie policies, implementing security headers, and providing clear contact and incident response information.

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

5 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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  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 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';…

  3. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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

AOPK ČR holds a strong market position as the official government agency for nature protection in the Czech Republic. Its business model is non-commercial, focused on public service and regulatory functions. The agency's key services include managing protected areas, issuing permits, providing public education, and supporting nature conservation efforts. The website links to multiple related government and research institutions, indicating a broad partnership ecosystem. Growth indicators are not applicable given the government nature, but the site reflects a mature digital presence with consistent branding and relevant content for its target audience of citizens, researchers, and officials.

Security posture

The security maturity level of the website is moderate to good. HTTPS is enforced, and no sensitive data leakage is observed. However, the absence of security headers and published security policies indicates room for improvement. There is no evidence of vulnerability disclosure or incident response mechanisms publicly available. Compliance with GDPR and other data protection regulations is not clearly demonstrated on the site. The lack of WHOIS transparency is a concern but may be due to registry policies. Overall, the site appears secure but would benefit from enhanced transparency and formal security documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements and consent mechanisms.
  2. Implement and verify HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance security posture.
  3. Establish and publicly disclose a security incident response policy and vulnerability disclosure program to improve trust and readiness.
  4. Add clear and verified contact information including official emails and phone numbers for public inquiries and security reporting.
  5. Improve WHOIS data transparency or provide official registry information to strengthen domain legitimacy and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack centered on the Liferay CMS platform, integrating popular frontend libraries like jQuery, Bootstrap, React, and Clay UI. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and structured navigation. Performance is moderate with no critical technical debt observed. However, accessibility features appear basic and could be enhanced. SEO optimization is good with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. The site lacks visible analytics or tracking scripts, indicating a privacy-conscious approach or limited data collection. Hosting provider details are not evident from the content. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a stable and professional government 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.
