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

Nethost s.r.o. is a technology company specializing in hosting, server management, cloud services, and security solutions. Positioned as a leader in their regional market, they offer a broad portfolio of services including virtual servers, managed servers, web hosting, application hosting, and SSL certificates. Their target audience includes businesses and individuals requiring reliable and secure hosting infrastructure. The company emphasizes quality, reliability, and security, supported by continuous development and research investments. Technically, the website employs legacy JavaScript libraries such as jQuery 1.7.1 and jQuery UI 1.8.18, integrated with modern tools like Google Tag Manager and PayPal Checkout for analytics and payment processing. The site is moderately optimized for performance and mobile devices, with basic accessibility and SEO features. Hosting and domain registration are managed by Media4web, s.r.o., consistent with the company's regional presence. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and offers multi-factor authentication options for customer login, demonstrating a commitment to secure access. However, the use of outdated JavaScript libraries introduces potential vulnerabilities. The absence of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and terms of service pages indicates areas for improvement in compliance and transparency. Cookie consent mechanisms are implemented with express consent, aligning with GDPR requirements. Overall, the website presents a professional and trustworthy front with good business credibility and privacy compliance. The main risks stem from outdated technical components and incomplete security documentation. Strategic improvements in these areas would enhance the company's security posture and regulatory 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.

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

  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

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

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

    • 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

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

Nethost operates in the competitive hosting and cloud services market, leveraging its technological expertise and individual customer approach to differentiate itself. The company targets SMEs and enterprises needing flexible and secure hosting solutions. Its business model revolves around service provision with recurring revenue streams from hosting, server management, and domain registration. The presence of regional sister sites for Czech and Slovak markets indicates a multi-market strategy. The company maintains a customer portal for service management and integrates popular payment and analytics platforms, suggesting a mature operational infrastructure. Growth indicators include active news updates and social media engagement. However, the lack of visible certifications or formal security policies may limit trust among highly regulated sectors.

Security posture

The security maturity level is moderate. HTTPS is enforced, and multi-factor authentication options are available for customer login, which are positive security controls. The cookie consent implementation shows awareness of privacy regulations. However, the use of outdated JavaScript libraries like jQuery 1.7.1 is a significant vulnerability risk. The absence of security headers and lack of published security or incident response policies reduce transparency and preparedness. No security.txt or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are present, which could hinder coordinated vulnerability reporting. Overall, while basic security hygiene is observed, there is room for improvement in modernizing the tech stack and formalizing security governance.

Recommendations

  1. Update all JavaScript libraries, especially jQuery and jQuery UI, to the latest secure versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  2. Publish a comprehensive terms of service page to clarify user agreements and legal protections.
  3. Develop and publicly share a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  5. Enhance mobile optimization and accessibility to improve user experience and compliance with accessibility standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a legacy JavaScript stack with jQuery 1.7.1 and jQuery UI 1.8.18, which are outdated and potentially vulnerable. It integrates Google Tag Manager for analytics and PayPal Checkout for payment processing, indicating a hybrid modern-classic technology approach. The site uses custom CSS and JavaScript files, with no detected CMS platform. Hosting and domain registration are managed by Media4web, s.r.o., a known registrar. Performance is moderate with basic mobile responsiveness. SEO is basic with meta keywords and description present but no advanced structured data or Open Graph tags detected. Accessibility features are minimal but present. The technical debt from outdated libraries poses a risk to business operations and security.
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.
