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

The website www.nrpslo.org serves as the national information center for vocational qualifications in Slovenia, operated by the Center RS za poklicno izobraževanje. It provides comprehensive resources and services related to the validation and verification of non-formally acquired knowledge through the NPK system. The site targets candidates, advisors, commissions, and vocational education providers, positioning itself as an authoritative government-supported portal in the education sector. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including Bootstrap, Vue.js, jQuery, and several UI libraries, indicating a mature and maintainable infrastructure. The presence of cookie consent mechanisms and privacy policies reflects a good level of digital maturity and compliance with GDPR requirements. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with good SEO practices. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and implements cookie consent, but lacks explicit security headers and incident response information. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the content. The WHOIS data is unavailable or privacy-protected, which is common for governmental or public institutions, and does not detract from the site's legitimacy. Overall, the website presents a low-risk profile with strong business credibility and good privacy compliance. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing security and incident response policies, and maintaining up-to-date third-party libraries to further strengthen security posture.

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

4 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.

    • 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

      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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics

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

  2. 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 Center RS za poklicno izobraževanje operates this site as a key national resource for vocational qualification standards and processes in Slovenia. Its market positioning is strong within the governmental and educational sectors, serving multiple stakeholder groups including candidates and advisors. The business model is service-oriented, supported by government funding, focusing on information dissemination and process facilitation rather than direct revenue generation. Partnerships with national qualification bodies and government ministries enhance its ecosystem. The site’s content and services indicate a medium-sized organization with a stable presence and consistent branding. Growth indicators include active news updates and event listings, as well as online submission capabilities for vocational standard proposals.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced, and cookie consent mechanisms are implemented, supporting GDPR compliance. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement. No incident response or security policy pages were found, indicating a potential gap in transparency and readiness. The use of modern JavaScript libraries and frameworks is positive, but regular vulnerability assessments of these dependencies are recommended. No signs of exposed credentials, malware, or phishing were detected. Overall, the security posture is adequate for the site’s informational purpose but could be enhanced to meet higher standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Conduct regular security audits and update third-party libraries to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance monitoring and logging mechanisms to detect and respond to security incidents promptly.
  5. Maintain and regularly review privacy compliance measures, including cookie consent and data retention policies.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a solid technical foundation using Bootstrap for responsive design, Vue.js for reactive components, and jQuery for DOM manipulation. Additional UI enhancements come from FontAwesome, IcoMoon, SlickSlider, DataTables, and Selectize libraries. The CMS appears to be Piranha CMS, inferred from JavaScript variables. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and accessibility features. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured navigation. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. The site uses Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics for tracking, integrated with user consent mechanisms. There is an opportunity to improve performance by optimizing script loading and implementing security headers.
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.
