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

7 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. 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 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

The platform targets professionals and the general public interested in conferences and educational events in Slovakia. Its business model centers on event organization and content delivery, supported by the SME media group's brand strength. The company benefits from a strong partnership ecosystem within the SME group and Petit Press publishing house. Revenue streams likely include ticket sales, sponsorships, and advertising. The site’s content quality and branding consistency reinforce its market position as a trusted event organizer. Growth indicators include a diverse calendar of upcoming events and integration with multiple SME group services.

Security posture

The website exhibits a good security posture with HTTPS enforced and DNSSEC enabled, reducing risks of interception and DNS spoofing. The presence of cookie consent and privacy policies aligned with GDPR indicates compliance maturity. However, the absence of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms suggests areas for enhancement. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The use of third-party tracking and marketing scripts is transparent and consent-based. Recommendations include adding security headers like CSP and publishing a security.txt file to improve incident response readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement additional HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a security.txt file to provide clear vulnerability disclosure and incident response contact information.
  3. Regularly audit and update all third-party plugins and scripts to mitigate risks from vulnerable libraries.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher compliance standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  5. Maintain transparency in data retention policies and provide users with clear options to manage their data preferences.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern tech stack including jQuery and Flickity for UI components. It uses Foundation CSS framework for responsive design and integrates multiple analytics and marketing tools such as Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, and LinkedIn Insight Tag. Hosting and DNS are managed via Cloudflare, providing CDN and security benefits including DNSSEC. The site performs moderately well with good mobile optimization and SEO practices implemented via Yoast SEO plugin. Technical debt appears low, but there is potential to improve performance and security by optimizing scripts and enhancing security headers.
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.
