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

MAS Podhoran is a Slovak non-profit civic association focused on community-led local development and regional support in the Podhoran area. The organization facilitates grant programs, promotes regional cooperation, and supports local municipalities and stakeholders. The website serves as an information hub for news, calls for proposals, and documentation related to rural development projects. Technically, the site is built on the Webnode CMS platform, uses HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate, and integrates Google Analytics and Facebook SDK for tracking and social media presence. While the site is mobile-optimized and well-structured, it lacks advanced security headers and a cookie consent mechanism, which are important for compliance and security. Overall, the security posture is moderate with room for improvement in headers and privacy compliance. The domain registration is consistent with the organization's profile, supporting legitimacy. The site is safe for general audiences and does not contain any adult or questionable content.

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

8 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

  2. Security headers

    Security headers are instructions your web server sends to every visitor’s browser. Missing ones leave visitors more exposed to attacks such as clickjacking and injected scripts.

    • High

      Missing Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

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 organization operates as a small-sized non-profit entity established in 2013, focusing on rural and community development in Slovakia. It maintains partnerships with government ministries, EU programs, and regional networks, which strengthens its market position as a facilitator of local development projects. The business model revolves around managing and promoting grant opportunities and supporting local municipalities. The website content and partner links indicate a strong ecosystem of regional cooperation. The presence of regular news updates and detailed documentation suggests active engagement with its audience and stakeholders.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate and uses IP anonymization in Google Analytics, indicating attention to basic security and privacy. However, it lacks critical security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and Referrer-Policy, which are recommended to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. No incident response or security policy pages are published, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files are present. The absence of a cookie consent mechanism is a compliance gap under EU regulations. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but could be significantly improved by implementing recommended headers and privacy controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a comprehensive cookie consent banner to comply with EU cookie laws and improve privacy compliance.
  2. Add security headers including Content-Security-Policy, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and Referrer-Policy to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response information to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Conduct regular audits of third-party scripts and dependencies to identify and mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve usability and compliance with accessibility standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is hosted on Cloudfront CDN and built using the Webnode CMS platform, which provides a stable and scalable infrastructure. The site uses standard HTML5 and JavaScript technologies, integrating Google Analytics for traffic analysis and Facebook SDK for social media features. Performance is moderate with CDN usage aiding content delivery. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design elements. SEO is basic with meta tags present but could be enhanced. Accessibility is basic and could benefit from improvements. No broken links or errors were detected in the analyzed content. Overall, the technical implementation is solid for a small non-profit site but has opportunities for modernization and security 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.
