Risk levelMedium

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

The website www.platbyvysocina.cz serves as the official online payment portal for the Kraj Vysočina region in the Czech Republic. It enables residents to conveniently pay various local fees such as municipal charges, school fees, and sports club memberships online, replacing traditional cash and slip payments. The portal is positioned as a regional government service, supported by the Projektová kancelář Kraje Vysočina, with clear contact information and trusted payment methods including Visa and Mastercard. Technically, the site employs modern web technologies with responsive design and structured navigation, though it lacks some advanced security headers and cookie consent mechanisms. The absence of WHOIS data limits domain registration transparency, but the overall legitimacy is supported by consistent branding and government affiliation. Security posture is good with HTTPS enforced and secure form handling, but improvements in security policy publication and vulnerability disclosure are recommended.

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

    • 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

    • 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

  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.

    • High

      No DMARC record found

      DMARC provides email authentication and reporting

      What to do: Add DMARC record: "v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:dmarc@yourdomain.com"

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 portal operates as a public service platform facilitating online payments for local government and affiliated organizations within the Vysočina region. Its business model focuses on streamlining fee collection for municipalities, schools, and clubs, targeting local residents as primary users. The partnership ecosystem includes regional government entities and ICT service providers like Abuco ICT. The platform's competitive advantage lies in its official status and integration with local administrative bodies. Growth potential is tied to expanding organizational participation and enhancing user experience. Revenue streams are likely indirect, funded by regional budgets or service fees. The portal maintains a focused regional presence with no evident commercial subsidiaries or extensive marketing efforts.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level with enforced HTTPS and secure form submissions. However, the lack of visible security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options indicates room for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Compliance with GDPR is partially evidenced by the presence of a privacy policy, though cookie consent mechanisms are absent. Incident response and security policy documentation are not publicly available, which could hinder rapid response to security events. Overall, the security culture appears functional but could benefit from formalized policies and transparency enhancements.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Introduce a cookie consent banner to comply fully with GDPR and improve user privacy transparency.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to build trust and readiness.
  4. Develop and expose a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Regularly audit and update WHOIS registration information to improve domain transparency and trustworthiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern front-end stack with CSS and JavaScript, likely leveraging Bootstrap for responsive design and possibly a JavaScript framework such as Vue.js or React indicated by deferred JS bundles. The site is mobile-optimized with good navigation clarity and SEO meta tags. Performance is moderate, with deferred script loading improving page load times. No CMS or hosting provider information is discernible from the HTML. The technical implementation is solid but could be enhanced by adding accessibility features and improving security header configurations. The absence of analytics or tracking scripts suggests a privacy-conscious approach but limits insights into user behavior.
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.
