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

PRVÁ ZVÁRAČSKÁ, a.s. is a Slovakian research, development, manufacturing, and certification company specializing in advanced welding technologies. Established in 2003, it holds a strong market position as a high-tech welding research center offering automated welding equipment, certification services, and educational programs. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image targeting industrial clients and research institutions. Technically, the site is built on Drupal CMS with integration of Google Maps and Analytics, providing moderate performance and basic mobile optimization.

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

9 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. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  3. 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 Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

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 · found on this site
  • 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 company operates in the manufacturing sector focused on welding technology innovation and certification. Its business model combines research and development with production and training services, targeting industrial and academic customers. The presence of awards and certifications enhances its credibility. The website's external links to industry events and partners indicate active engagement in the welding technology ecosystem. The company maintains physical offices in Bratislava and Vranov nad Topľou, Slovakia, supporting a medium-sized operation. The lack of visible social media presence suggests a focus on direct industry relationships rather than broad consumer marketing.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS ensuring encrypted communications, which is a fundamental security measure. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security reduces protection against common web attacks. No incident response or security policy information is published, limiting transparency and preparedness perception. The use of Google Analytics introduces moderate user tracking, but no cookie consent mechanism is present, which may pose GDPR compliance risks. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved by implementing recommended headers, privacy controls, and incident response disclosures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection against web attacks.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner and detailed cookie policy to improve GDPR compliance and user privacy transparency.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to build trust and demonstrate preparedness.
  4. Enhance mobile optimization and accessibility features to improve user experience across devices and for users with disabilities.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to identify and mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal CMS with jQuery and integrates Google Maps and Google Analytics for location and analytics services. The HTML structure is valid and includes meta tags for description and canonical URLs, supporting SEO. Performance is moderate with multiple large images in the gallery that may impact load times. Mobile optimization is basic, with no explicit responsive design meta tags detected. Accessibility features are minimal but present, such as keyboard shortcut descriptions for the map. The site lacks advanced SEO optimizations like Open Graph or JSON-LD structured data. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could benefit from modernization and optimization efforts.
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.
