Established since 1990, it holds important international certifications such as ČSN EN ISO/IEC 17025 and 17065, positioning itself as a trusted service provider in the fire safety sector. The company serves a professional audience including manufacturers, suppliers, and regulatory bodies, with over 400 active customers. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image, providing clear business and contact information. Technically, the website is built on Joomla CMS using modern frameworks like Helix Ultimate and SP Page Builder, incorporating popular libraries such as jQuery and Bootstrap. It employs Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager for analytics and tracking, with a cookie consent mechanism ensuring GDPR compliance. The site is mobile-optimized and performs moderately well, though some improvements in accessibility and security headers could be made. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. However, the absence of WHOIS data and domain registration details slightly reduces trustworthiness. No security policy or incident response information is published, which could be enhanced to improve transparency and readiness. Overall, PAVUS, a.s. presents a credible and professional online presence with good compliance and security practices. Strategic improvements in security headers, WHOIS transparency, and published security policies would further strengthen its digital trust and resilience.

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 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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, YouTube

      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

  3. Network security

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

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

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

PAVUS operates in a niche market of fire safety testing and certification, leveraging long-standing industry experience and recognized accreditations. Its business model focuses on providing accredited testing services, certification, and expert consultancy, targeting manufacturers and suppliers needing compliance verification. The company maintains partnerships such as membership in the TZUS group, enhancing its market credibility. The website's content and references indicate a stable customer base and ongoing projects, suggesting steady revenue streams. The absence of parent or subsidiary companies implies an independent operation. The company’s digital presence is professional, supporting its market positioning and growth potential.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and no evident exposure of sensitive data. Cookie consent and privacy mechanisms align with GDPR requirements, reflecting good privacy compliance. However, the lack of explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options is a gap that could be addressed. No published security policy or incident response contacts were found, which limits transparency and preparedness communication. No vulnerabilities or malware indicators were detected in the content or scripts. Overall, the security maturity is good but could benefit from enhanced header implementation and published security documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to strengthen browser security.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance with standards and user experience for all visitors.
  5. Investigate and resolve the lack of WHOIS data to improve domain registration transparency and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Joomla CMS with the Helix Ultimate template framework and SP Page Builder, utilizing modern front-end libraries such as jQuery, Bootstrap, and Font Awesome. It integrates Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager for tracking and analytics. The site is mobile responsive and uses a video background and carousel sliders for dynamic content presentation. Performance is moderate with room for optimization. The site lacks some advanced accessibility features and security headers. Hosting provider details are not evident from the content. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid and supports the business needs effectively, with opportunities for security and performance enhancements.
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.
