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

7 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

    • 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 portal holds a strong market position as a primary news source for the Nitra region, targeting local residents interested in community news, sports, and events. Its competitive advantage lies in localized content and comprehensive event coverage. Revenue streams likely include advertising and sponsored event listings. The presence of social media groups and push notifications suggests active audience engagement and a growing digital ecosystem. The business operates in the media sector with a small organizational size. No parent or subsidiary companies are identified. The site demonstrates consistent branding and good content quality, supporting its credibility and audience trust.

Security posture

The website maintains a good security baseline with HTTPS enabled and no exposed sensitive information in the HTML content. Use of service workers for push notifications (OneSignal) is implemented securely. However, explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options are not evident and should be added to enhance protection against common web attacks. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies are found, which could be improved to strengthen security culture. Overall, the site shows moderate security maturity appropriate for a regional media outlet but could benefit from enhanced security controls and formal policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Establish and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy and incident response contact information.
  3. Regularly audit and update WordPress core and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance privacy compliance by detailing data retention policies and user rights.
  5. Increase transparency on advertising and tracking practices to improve user trust.

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.
