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

Prague Morning is a well-established English language media outlet focused on news from Prague and the Czech Republic. Founded in 2016, it holds a strong market position as the largest English media source in the region, targeting English-speaking residents and visitors interested in local news. The website uses WordPress with Elementor and Yoast SEO, indicating a modern and maintainable technical infrastructure. Advertising and tracking scripts are integrated, supporting monetization and analytics needs. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS and Cloudflare DNS, but lacks explicit security headers and formal privacy or cookie policies, which are areas for improvement. Overall, the site is professional and trustworthy but could enhance compliance and security transparency.

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 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"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

    • High

      Missing Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

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 business operates in the media sector, providing news content in English for the Czech Republic audience. Its business model relies on content publishing supported by advertising networks such as Google Adsense, Vidverto, and Teads. The presence of social media channels on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and LinkedIn supports audience engagement and brand presence. The domain age and WHOIS data align with a legitimate media company. Growth potential exists through improved privacy compliance and enhanced security practices. No parent or subsidiary companies were identified, suggesting an independent operation.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and Cloudflare DNS, which are positive security indicators. However, the absence of security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is provided, limiting transparency for security issues. The use of multiple third-party scripts introduces potential risk vectors that require regular auditing. No exposed sensitive data or known vulnerabilities were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be strengthened by implementing best practices and formal policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to improve GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection.
  3. Provide clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for business and security incident reporting.
  4. Establish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to foster responsible security communication.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts to mitigate risks from external dependencies.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with Elementor page builder and Yoast SEO plugin, indicating a modern and SEO-optimized platform. It uses jQuery, Flatpickr, Select2, and Font Awesome for UI enhancements. Hosting details are not explicit but Cloudflare DNS is used, suggesting CDN and DNS protection. Performance is moderate with multiple external scripts and ads. Mobile optimization is good, but accessibility features are basic. SEO is well addressed with meta tags and structured data in JSON-LD format. Technical debt appears low but could be improved by reducing redundant script loads and enhancing 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.
