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

8 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

  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

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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
  • 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

SAŽP operates as a government entity providing essential environmental services and information dissemination. Its business model is non-commercial, focusing on public service and regulatory compliance. The agency leverages partnerships with related environmental platforms and projects, enhancing its ecosystem. The website content and structure indicate a medium-sized organization with a stable market position in Slovakia. The presence of certifications like ISO 27001 and EMAS supports its credibility. The agency's digital strategy includes active social media engagement and project transparency, signaling growth and stakeholder engagement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security maturity level with enforced HTTPS, cookie consent, and secure form handling. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The lack of a published security.txt or explicit incident response contacts limits transparency in vulnerability disclosure and incident management. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a government agency website but could benefit from enhanced header policies and incident response visibility.

Recommendations

  1. Implement Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options headers to strengthen security.
  2. Publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability reporting and improve transparency.
  3. Enhance incident response contact information, including dedicated security or abuse email addresses.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies for vulnerabilities and update accordingly.
  5. Maintain and update privacy and cookie policies to ensure ongoing GDPR compliance and user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern tech stack including React for dynamic components, jQuery for legacy support, and Slick Carousel for UI elements. It uses the ScoreCMS content management system and integrates Google Analytics for user tracking. The site is mobile-optimized with good accessibility features and SEO meta tags. Performance is moderate, with external CDN usage for styles and scripts. The infrastructure appears stable but could benefit from performance tuning and enhanced security headers. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified from the HTML content.
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.
