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

Pelikan.cz is a well-established online travel agency primarily serving the Czech Republic and Slovak markets. The company offers a broad range of travel-related services including flight bookings, hotel reservations, travel insurance, car rentals, and holiday packages. With over 3 million satisfied customers and 20 years of experience, Pelikan.cz positions itself as a trusted and comprehensive travel service provider. The website is professionally designed with clear navigation and a focus on user experience, targeting travelers seeking affordable and convenient travel solutions. The business model revolves around aggregating offers from over 800 airlines and travel partners, providing a one-stop platform for travel planning and booking. Technically, the website leverages modern web technologies such as AngularJS, Swiper.js, and integrates multiple analytics and marketing tools including Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, New Relic, and Exponea. The site is served over HTTPS with service worker support, indicating a commitment to security and performance. Mobile optimization is good, and SEO practices are well implemented, although accessibility features are basic. The site employs a detailed cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR, reflecting awareness of privacy regulations. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses several third-party monitoring and analytics services. However, explicit security headers are not detected in the provided data, and no dedicated security or incident response policies are publicly available. The absence of WHOIS data limits the ability to fully verify domain registration legitimacy, which slightly impacts trust assessment. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were identified in the analysis. Overall, Pelikan.cz presents a professional and trustworthy online travel platform with a solid technical foundation and good privacy compliance. The main risks relate to incomplete domain registration transparency and the opportunity to enhance security headers and incident response visibility. Strategic improvements in these areas would strengthen the site's security posture and trustworthiness.

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

Pelikan.cz operates in the competitive online travel agency sector, focusing on the Czech and Slovak markets. Its competitive advantages include a large customer base, extensive airline partnerships, and a diversified service offering that includes flights, hotels, car rentals, and insurance. The business model is commission-based, aggregating travel offers and facilitating bookings. Revenue streams likely include booking fees, affiliate commissions, and advertising partnerships. The target customer segments are leisure and business travelers seeking cost-effective travel options. Growth indicators include a strong digital presence, integration with multiple marketing and analytics platforms, and partnerships with related travel and wellness services. The partnership ecosystem includes related domains such as pelipecky.cz and cestovani.pelikan.cz, enhancing cross-selling opportunities. Strategic observations highlight the importance of maintaining strong brand trust, expanding service offerings, and improving transparency in domain registration and security practices.

Security posture

Pelikan.cz demonstrates a moderate to strong security posture with mandatory HTTPS enforcement and use of service workers for enhanced security and performance. The integration of monitoring tools like New Relic and analytics platforms indicates active traffic and performance monitoring. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options suggests room for improvement in mitigating common web vulnerabilities. No direct contact information for security incidents or a published security policy was found, which could hinder incident response effectiveness. The cookie consent mechanism is comprehensive and GDPR compliant, reflecting good privacy practices. No evidence of vulnerabilities, malware, or phishing was detected. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be enhanced by implementing recommended headers, publishing incident response contacts, and adding a security.txt file.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen defense against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information on the website to improve transparency and readiness for security incidents.
  3. Add a security.txt file at the root domain to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure and improve security communication.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher standards and improve usability for all users.
  5. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration information to ensure transparency and trustworthiness.

Notes

The website is built using AngularJS framework with additional libraries such as Swiper.js for UI components and jQuery Mousewheel for enhanced user interactions. It integrates multiple third-party analytics and marketing tools including Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, New Relic, and Exponea, indicating a mature digital marketing and monitoring setup.

The site is mobile optimized and SEO friendly with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. No CMS was explicitly detected. Hosting provider details are not available from the provided data. Technical risks include potential outdated AngularJS usage and missing security headers. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a robust user experience but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security configurations.
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.
