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

The website policie.gov.cz is the official online presence of the Police of the Czech Republic, providing comprehensive information about police services, news updates, public safety resources, and contact points for citizens and foreigners. It serves as a critical government portal for law enforcement communication and public engagement. The site is well-branded, consistent, and targets a broad audience including the general public and foreign visitors seeking police-related information. Technically, the site uses legacy jQuery alongside modern analytics tools such as Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics. It enforces HTTPS and includes a Content Security Policy header, contributing to a solid security baseline. However, the use of an outdated jQuery version and minimal additional security headers represent areas for improvement. The site includes a cookie consent mechanism, supporting privacy compliance, though no explicit privacy policy or terms of service pages were found. Security posture is generally good with no visible vulnerabilities or blocking mechanisms detected. The absence of WHOIS data limits domain registration insights, but the official .gov.cz domain and consistent government branding strongly support legitimacy. The site does not contain any adult or questionable content and is safe for general audiences. Overall, the website is a professional government portal with good content quality and security practices, though it would benefit from modernizing its technical stack, enhancing security headers, and publishing clear privacy and terms policies to improve compliance and trust.

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 Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube

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

  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

Policie.gov.cz operates as a government essential entity within the law enforcement sector in the Czech Republic. Its market position is authoritative as the official police website, providing critical public safety information and services. The business model is non-commercial, focused on public service and information dissemination. Key services include news updates, police unit information, public safety advice, and access to various police databases. The site supports a large audience including citizens and foreigners. The partnership ecosystem includes related government domains such as mv.gov.cz and hzscr.gov.cz. Growth indicators are not applicable given the government nature, but the site maintains a strong presence and trust through official branding and social media engagement.

Security posture

The security maturity of policie.gov.cz is moderate to good. HTTPS is enforced, and a Content Security Policy header is present, which helps mitigate common web vulnerabilities. However, the site uses an outdated version of jQuery (1.1.3.1), which is known to have security issues and should be updated. Additional security headers like X-Frame-Options and X-Content-Type-Options are missing, which could improve protection against clickjacking and MIME sniffing attacks. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which is a gap in security transparency. The cookie consent mechanism supports GDPR compliance but the absence of a privacy policy page reduces compliance confidence. Overall, the site is secure for general use but could improve by modernizing libraries and enhancing security headers and policies.

Recommendations

  1. Upgrade jQuery to the latest stable version to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  2. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages to improve legal compliance and user trust.
  3. Implement additional security headers such as X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Referrer-Policy.
  4. Create and publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability reporting and incident response.
  5. Provide clear contact information for data protection officer and incident response teams to enhance transparency.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using legacy jQuery 1.1.3.1 and includes Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics for tracking and analytics. The HTML structure is valid and includes meta tags for language, content type, and SEO. The site uses a Content Security Policy header to upgrade insecure requests, enhancing security. Performance is moderate with no explicit indicators of slow loading but could benefit from modernization. Mobile optimization is basic, with responsive CSS stylesheets included but no advanced frameworks detected. Accessibility is good, with skip links and language attributes properly set. No CMS or hosting provider information is evident from the source. Overall, the technical infrastructure is functional but dated, with opportunities for modernization and performance improvements.
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.
