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

The SEPNO website is an official government portal managed under the Czech Ministry of Environment, providing a mandatory system for reporting the transport of hazardous waste in compliance with national legislation. It serves entities involved in hazardous waste transport by offering registration, reporting, confirmation, and user support services. The site is well-branded with official logos and links to related government environmental systems, establishing a strong trust foundation for its target audience. Technically, the website is built on Drupal 7 with jQuery and includes responsive design elements and embedded login iframes. While the site is functional and mobile-optimized, it uses an older CMS version and lacks some modern security headers and explicit privacy policies, which could be improved. Performance is moderate, and SEO and accessibility are basic but adequate for its purpose. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS enforced and a cookie consent mechanism in place. However, the absence of security headers and incident response contacts, along with missing WHOIS registration data, slightly reduce the overall trust and security confidence. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the content. Overall, the site is a trustworthy government resource with clear business credibility but would benefit from enhanced transparency in privacy and security policies, updated technical infrastructure, and verified domain registration information to strengthen its security and compliance 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

4 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

  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

      • 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

SEPNO operates as a government regulatory compliance portal focused on hazardous waste transport in the Czech Republic. Its market position is authoritative and essential within the environmental governance sector. The business model revolves around providing mandatory reporting services to regulated entities, supported by official government agencies. Revenue streams are not applicable as it is a public service. The target customers are businesses and organizations involved in hazardous waste transport. The partnership ecosystem includes the Ministry of Environment, CENIA, and related environmental registries. Growth indicators are stable given the regulatory nature. Strategic observations highlight the importance of maintaining updated technology and compliance with evolving data protection laws.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and a cookie consent banner indicating some privacy awareness. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and absence of explicit security or incident response policies are gaps. No direct contact emails or phone numbers for security incidents were found, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files are present. The use of Drupal 7, an older CMS version, may pose risks if not regularly patched. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a government informational portal but requires improvements to meet higher compliance standards such as GDPR and NIS2.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish clear privacy and security policies on the website to enhance transparency and GDPR compliance.
  3. Establish and publicize incident response contact channels to improve security incident handling and user trust.
  4. Upgrade the Drupal CMS to a supported and secure version to reduce technical debt and vulnerabilities.
  5. Regularly audit and monitor the website for security vulnerabilities and update third-party libraries accordingly.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal 7 CMS with jQuery and uses responsive menus and embedded iframe login forms. The technical infrastructure is functional but dated, with moderate performance and basic SEO and accessibility features. The site is mobile-optimized and uses HTTPS, but lacks modern security headers and advanced analytics or marketing tools. There is no evidence of advanced hosting provider information or CDN usage. The technical debt from using an older CMS version could pose risks and limit future scalability. Opportunities exist to modernize the stack, improve performance, and enhance security configurations.
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.
