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

7 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

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.sk operates as a leading online travel agency in Slovakia, targeting budget-conscious travelers seeking flights and vacation packages. Its business model centers on aggregating flight options from over 800 airlines and offering complementary services such as hotels, car rentals, and insurance. The company benefits from strong brand recognition, extensive partnerships, and a loyal customer base. Revenue streams likely include commissions from bookings and affiliate marketing. The platform's integration with multiple marketing and analytics tools indicates a data-driven approach to customer acquisition and retention. Strategic partnerships with related domains like pelipecky.sk and car rental services enhance its market offering. The company's longevity and consistent branding reinforce its competitive advantage in the regional travel market.

Security posture

Pelikan.sk exhibits a solid security foundation with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive cookie consent, and use of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security. The absence of exposed sensitive data and secure form implementations further strengthen its security stance. However, the lack of publicly available security policies and incident response contacts suggests room for improvement in transparency and preparedness. No immediate vulnerabilities or suspicious activities were detected in the website content or linked domains. Compliance with GDPR is evident through privacy policies and cookie management. To elevate security maturity, Pelikan.sk should consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure program and enhancing accessibility and security documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact page to improve transparency.
  2. Implement a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance website accessibility features to comply with best practices and improve user experience.
  5. Maintain and document data retention policies to strengthen privacy compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on AngularJS with additional JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and integrates multiple third-party analytics and marketing platforms including Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, New Relic, and Exponea. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and offers a rich user interface for flight and vacation bookings. Performance is moderate, with room for optimization in loading times. The absence of a detected CMS suggests a custom-built platform, which may require dedicated maintenance. Hosting details are not explicitly available, but the use of CDN domains indicates content delivery optimization. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a robust and scalable travel booking platform, though modernization opportunities exist to upgrade frameworks and improve accessibility.
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.
