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

Obec Palkovice operates as a municipal government portal serving the residents and visitors of Palkovice and Myslík in the Czech Republic. The website provides comprehensive local information including official announcements, event calendars, citizen services, and contact details. It positions itself as a trusted source of community information and public service facilitation. Technically, the site is built as a modern Angular single-page application, integrating Google services such as Analytics, Tag Manager, Maps, and YouTube APIs, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. The site is mobile-optimized and offers a good user experience with clear navigation and relevant content. Security-wise, the site uses HTTPS and implements a cookie consent mechanism, but lacks visible advanced security headers or published security policies. No critical vulnerabilities or suspicious content were detected. Overall, the site is credible and trustworthy but would benefit from enhanced privacy and security disclosures to improve compliance and user trust.

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

    • 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

  2. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  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

      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';…

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 serves as the official digital presence of the local government of Palkovice, targeting local residents, businesses, and tourists. Its business model is focused on public service delivery and community engagement rather than commercial revenue. The site’s longevity since 2000 and consistent branding reinforce its stable market position as a municipal authority. Key services include dissemination of official documents, event management, citizen portals for administrative requests, and local news updates. The integration of social media platforms and multimedia content supports community outreach. The absence of commercial advertising or affiliate programs aligns with its government sector classification. Growth indicators include active event listings and digital citizen services. The partnership ecosystem appears limited to public and regional entities, with no commercial partners identified.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with HTTPS enabled and a cookie consent banner indicating awareness of privacy regulations. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, or X-Frame-Options reduces its defense-in-depth capabilities. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies are published, which may impact readiness for security events. The site does not expose sensitive data or show signs of vulnerable libraries. Forms appear limited and do not indicate advanced security controls. Compliance with GDPR is implied but not explicitly documented. Overall, the security maturity is moderate, suitable for a public information site but with room for improvement in formal policies and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy detailing data processing and GDPR compliance.
  2. Implement and enforce security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options.
  3. Establish and publish an incident response and vulnerability disclosure policy with contact channels.
  4. Conduct regular security audits and vulnerability scans to identify and remediate risks.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet recognized standards and improve user inclusivity.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Angular 17.1.3, a modern front-end framework, indicating up-to-date technology adoption. It leverages external libraries such as Font Awesome for icons and Google Fonts for typography, enhancing visual appeal. Integration with Google Tag Manager and Analytics supports data-driven insights, while Google Maps and YouTube APIs enrich content. Hosting appears to be with Wedos, a reputable Czech hosting provider. Performance is moderate, with some reliance on external CDNs. The site is mobile responsive and uses semantic HTML elements, though accessibility could be improved. SEO is basic with meta viewport and title tags but lacks advanced structured data or Open Graph metadata. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could benefit from enhanced SEO and accessibility 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.
