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

  2. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  3. 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

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 · found on this site
  • 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

Nowaco holds a solid market position in the Czech food retail and manufacturing sector, supported by its parent company Bidfood Czech Republic s.r.o. The business model combines B2B and B2C approaches, leveraging product variety and recipe content to engage customers. The presence of an e-shop for business clients suggests diversified revenue streams. Social media presence on Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube supports brand engagement. The company benefits from consistent branding and clear contact information, enhancing customer trust. Strategic partnerships with Bidfood and related domains strengthen its market ecosystem.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and use of Google reCAPTCHA to mitigate spam and bot attacks. Cookie consent is actively managed with detailed categories, supporting GDPR compliance. However, the absence of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and security headers like Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options indicates room for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. Enhancing security documentation and headers would improve the overall security posture and compliance readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages to improve legal compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement and publicly disclose a security policy and incident response procedures including dedicated contact channels.
  3. Add security HTTP headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to harden the website.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve usability for all users and comply with accessibility standards.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerabilities or outdated components are present.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern WordPress CMS with Elementor page builder, ensuring flexible content management and responsive design. Integration with Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics enables effective marketing and user behavior tracking. CookieYes is used for cookie consent management, providing detailed user control over cookie categories. Performance is moderate with lazy loading and optimized images, but no explicit hosting provider information was found. The site lacks advanced SEO meta tags and accessibility features, which could be improved. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports business needs but could benefit from enhanced security and compliance features.
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.
