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

6 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 Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

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

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 company operates in the manufacturing sector, specifically brewing, with a medium-sized footprint in the Czech Republic. It benefits from being part of the larger Kofola ČeskoSlovensko group, which supports its market position. The business model includes production, marketing, and direct-to-consumer sales via an online shop. The website's content and linked domains confirm a strong partnership ecosystem with subsidiary brewery brands and related services. The presence of active news and event updates indicates ongoing engagement with customers and stakeholders. The company targets mature audiences given the alcohol-related content and age verification. No direct revenue data is available, but the diversified brand portfolio and e-commerce presence suggest multiple revenue streams.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security posture with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces the overall security maturity. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which limits transparency and readiness perception. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The use of Google Tag Manager and Cloudflare DNS indicates reliance on reputable third-party services for security and performance. Recommendations include adding security headers, publishing security policies, and establishing a vulnerability disclosure program to enhance trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Add clearly labeled company phone numbers to improve contact transparency.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet compliance standards and improve user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern JavaScript frameworks, primarily Vue.js, with modular JavaScript and CSS assets. It leverages Google Fonts and Google Tag Manager for typography and analytics/marketing respectively. Hosting and DNS are managed via Cloudflare, providing CDN and security benefits. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and good performance indicators. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured navigation. No common CMS was detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary solution. The site includes a cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR. Technical risks are minimal but could be reduced further by adding explicit security headers and improving accessibility compliance.
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.
