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

Urząd Miejski w Nidzicy operates as the official municipal government office for the town and gmina of Nidzica, Poland. The website serves as a comprehensive portal providing residents and stakeholders with access to public administration services, local news, cultural and environmental programs, and contact information. The site is well-structured, accessible, and targets local citizens and interested parties. Technically, the site uses a PHP-based CMS platform 'netadmin' by extranet.pl, incorporating modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery, DataTables, and Bootstrap DateTimePicker. The website is mobile-optimized and includes accessibility features, enhancing usability for diverse users. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS and includes cookie consent mechanisms, but lacks advanced HTTP security headers and a public vulnerability disclosure policy. No WHOIS data is publicly available, but the domain and content strongly indicate legitimacy as a government site. Overall, the site demonstrates a solid digital presence with room for security enhancements.

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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • 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 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

The website positions Urząd Miejski w Nidzicy as a key local government entity providing essential public services and information to its community. Its business model is typical of public sector organizations, focusing on transparency, citizen engagement, and service delivery. The portal includes sections on municipal administration, cultural and educational institutions, environmental initiatives, and external funding projects, indicating a broad scope of local governance activities. The presence of official social media links and external government-related domains suggests active engagement and partnership within the public sector ecosystem. The site’s content and structure reflect a medium-sized government entity with a stable market position in the regional public administration sector.

Security posture

The website maintains a baseline security posture with HTTPS enabled and a cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options reduces its defense-in-depth capabilities. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The site lacks a published incident response or vulnerability disclosure policy, which could hinder timely security issue reporting and resolution. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a government informational site but would benefit from implementing additional security best practices and transparency measures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Regularly update and audit JavaScript libraries and CMS components to mitigate risks from known vulnerabilities.
  3. Publish a security.txt file or a dedicated vulnerability disclosure policy page to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Add incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness for security incidents.
  5. Continue enhancing accessibility and privacy compliance to maintain trust and legal adherence.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a PHP-based CMS platform 'netadmin' version 7.32 by extranet.pl, utilizing popular JavaScript libraries such as jQuery, DataTables, Fancybox, and Bootstrap DateTimePicker. The site includes responsive design and accessibility features, supporting a good user experience across devices. Performance is moderate, with some reliance on external scripts and CSS. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured navigation. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. The site uses session cookies and persistent cookies for user preferences and consent management. No advanced frameworks or platforms like React or Angular were detected. Overall, the technical infrastructure is stable but could be modernized with enhanced security and performance optimizations.
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.
