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

SmartBase operates primarily in the technology and eCommerce sectors, focusing on custom software and digital commerce solutions. Their business model revolves around bespoke development projects for clients, supported by strong UX and data analytics capabilities. The company targets medium-sized businesses and enterprises looking for tailored eCommerce platforms and related digital services. Their partnership ecosystem includes notable clients such as Tatra banka, Resco, and HB Reavis, indicating a strong market presence in Slovakia and neighboring regions. The company leverages multilingual capabilities to serve diverse markets. Growth indicators include a decade-long operation and a portfolio of high-profile client projects. Revenue streams likely come from software development contracts, maintenance, and consulting services.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and Cloudflare DNS usage. No sensitive data is exposed in the HTML, and no outdated or vulnerable libraries are detected. However, the absence of security headers such as Content Security Policy, X-Frame-Options, and HSTS reduces the overall security hardening. There is no visible security policy or incident response information, which could impact transparency and readiness. Privacy compliance is lacking, with no privacy or cookie policies and no consent mechanism, posing potential GDPR compliance risks. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files are present, limiting external reporting channels. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be improved by formalizing policies and enhancing header configurations.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Add a cookie consent mechanism to obtain and manage user consent for tracking and cookies.
  3. Deploy security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with Yoast SEO and WPML plugins, supporting multilingual content. It uses modern web technologies and integrates Google Tag Manager and Hotjar for analytics and user behavior tracking. Hosting and DNS are managed via Cloudflare, enhancing performance and security. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and good navigation clarity. Performance is moderate, with some lazy loading and preloading optimizations. Accessibility features are basic but present. SEO is well addressed with meta tags, Open Graph data, and structured JSON-LD schema. Technical risks include lack of security headers and incomplete privacy compliance, which should be addressed to reduce compliance and security risks.
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.
