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

RATE s.r.o. is a Czech energy company specializing in the operation of hot water and heating systems, primarily serving municipalities, residential buildings, and local customers in the Štětí region. Founded in 1994 and now part of the ENERGIE AG BOHEMIA group, the company offers comprehensive heating services including heat and hot water supply, maintenance of heat exchange stations, and installation services. Their market position is that of a regional energy service provider with a stable customer base and integration into a larger energy group. Technically, the website is built on WordPress and employs modern web technologies such as jQuery, Google Tag Manager, and FancyBox. The site is well-structured, mobile-optimized, and includes SEO best practices. Privacy and cookie policies are implemented with a consent mechanism, indicating good compliance with GDPR requirements. However, some security headers are missing, and no explicit incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided. Security posture is generally strong with HTTPS enforced and no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain registration is a notable concern, reducing the overall trust score. The website provides clear contact information and social media presence, enhancing business credibility. Overall, the risk assessment is moderate with recommendations to improve domain transparency, implement additional security headers, and publish security policies to enhance trust and compliance.

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

1 finding rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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

RATE s.r.o. operates in the energy sector, focusing on district heating and hot water supply services in the Štětí region. Their competitive advantage lies in their long-standing regional presence since 1994 and integration into the ENERGIE AG BOHEMIA group, which provides financial and operational support. The business model centers on operating and maintaining heating infrastructure, providing installation and maintenance services, and managing customer billing and metering. Target customers include municipalities, housing associations, and industrial clients. Growth indicators include recent technological upgrades and expanded service offerings. The partnership ecosystem includes the parent company and service providers such as web developers. Strategic observations highlight the importance of maintaining infrastructure reliability and enhancing digital presence for customer engagement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and no evident exposure of sensitive data. The use of Google Tag Manager and Analytics is standard but requires ongoing privacy compliance monitoring. Missing security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represent areas for improvement. The absence of published incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies limits transparency and preparedness communication. GDPR compliance is well addressed through privacy and cookie policies with consent mechanisms. Overall, the security culture appears adequate but could benefit from formalizing security documentation and enhancing header protections to mitigate common web threats.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to strengthen web security.
  2. Publish an incident response policy and vulnerability disclosure program to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Investigate and resolve the lack of WHOIS domain registration data to enhance domain trustworthiness.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to ensure privacy compliance and minimize user tracking.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct periodic security assessments to maintain a robust security posture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern tech stack including jQuery and FancyBox for UI components. Google Tag Manager and Analytics are integrated for marketing and analytics purposes. The site loads external resources from reputable CDNs and Google Fonts, ensuring performance optimization. Mobile responsiveness and SEO optimization are well implemented. However, the absence of certain security headers and incomplete WHOIS data represent technical risks. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified, which could be relevant for infrastructure security assessments. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports business operations effectively but has room for security and transparency 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.
