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

Burza cenných papírů Praha, a.s. (Prague Stock Exchange) is the primary stock exchange operator in the Czech Republic, with a long-standing history dating back to 1871. The website provides comprehensive market data, investor and issuer guides, and access to multiple trading markets including Prime, Standard, Free, and Start markets. The platform targets investors, issuers, and financial market participants, offering a regulated environment for trading equities, bonds, structured products, and investment funds. The exchange maintains a strong market position as the main organizer of securities trading in the country. Technically, the website employs a modern technology stack including jQuery, Bootstrap, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and the Nette Framework for AJAX and forms. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and features good SEO practices. Performance is moderate with a professional design and clear navigation. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS, uses cookie consent mechanisms, and integrates Google Tag Manager with privacy controls. While some security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options are not explicitly detected, the overall security posture is good with no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. The absence of WHOIS data limits domain registration trust analysis, but the website's professional presentation and official branding support its legitimacy. Overall, the Prague Stock Exchange website is a well-maintained, secure, and authoritative platform serving the Czech financial market. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, improving incident response visibility, and maintaining privacy compliance to further strengthen trust and security posture.

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

5 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

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube

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

  2. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

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.

Business context

Business profile

The Prague Stock Exchange operates as a key financial market infrastructure in the Czech Republic, providing multiple market segments tailored to different issuer profiles including blue-chip companies and smaller innovative firms. Its business model revolves around transaction fees, market data sales, and services to issuers and investors. The exchange benefits from a strong historical legacy and regulatory recognition, positioning it as a trusted market operator. The website reflects a mature digital presence with extensive investor education resources and real-time market data, supporting transparency and market participation. Partnerships with Wiener Börse, Central Securities Depository, and Power Exchange Central Europe indicate a robust ecosystem. Growth indicators include recent IPOs and new market segments for SMEs. The company targets institutional and retail investors, issuers, and financial intermediaries.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with mandatory HTTPS, cookie consent, and privacy policy compliance aligned with GDPR. The use of Google Tag Manager and Analytics is managed with consent mechanisms, reducing privacy risks. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options suggests room for improvement to mitigate clickjacking, MIME sniffing, and cross-site scripting risks. No direct contact channels for security incidents or vulnerability disclosures are visible, which could hinder incident response effectiveness. No vulnerabilities or sensitive data exposures were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the site is secure but would benefit from enhanced header policies and clearer incident response information.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce Content-Security-Policy header to reduce XSS risks.
  2. Add X-Frame-Options header to prevent clickjacking attacks.
  3. Include X-Content-Type-Options header to prevent MIME sniffing.
  4. Publish clear security incident response and vulnerability disclosure contacts.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies for vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a combination of modern JavaScript libraries and frameworks including jQuery, Bootstrap, Handlebars, and Nette Framework for dynamic content and form handling. It integrates Google Analytics and Tag Manager with consent management for tracking. The site is mobile responsive and optimized for accessibility with semantic HTML and ARIA attributes. Performance is moderate, with some heavy SVG charts and multiple external scripts. The hosting provider is not explicitly identified. The site uses standard favicon and meta tags for SEO and social sharing. There is no detected CMS, suggesting a custom or framework-based implementation. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could benefit from performance optimizations and enhanced security headers.
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.
