Solen Software, s.r.o. is a Czech Republic based small technology company specializing in the development of custom internet applications with a strong focus on editorial systems for scientific publishing. Their flagship product, Actavia, supports comprehensive workflows for scientific journals including DOI management and integration with CrossRef and other citation databases. The company has an established web presence since 2012 and operates multiple related domains supporting their core business. Technically, the website uses legacy JavaScript libraries such as jQuery 1.7.2 and includes Google Analytics and Tag Manager for tracking, but lacks modern security headers and visible privacy or cookie policies, indicating room for compliance and security improvements. No contact emails or phone numbers are explicitly provided on the main site, which may impact user trust and support accessibility. The WHOIS data is consistent with the business claims, showing a legitimate and stable domain registration. Overall, the website is professional and content-rich but requires enhancements in privacy compliance, security posture, and contact transparency.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Business context
Business profile
The company occupies a niche market in scientific publishing technology, offering a proprietary editorial system that integrates with DOI and citation services, targeting academic publishers and editorial offices. Their business model revolves around software licensing and custom development, supported by digitalization services for legacy journal content. The presence of multiple related domains indicates a focused ecosystem around their core product. Growth potential lies in expanding adoption of Actavia and related services in academic and scientific communities. The lack of visible contact details and privacy policies may hinder customer acquisition and regulatory compliance. Partnerships with CrossRef and integration with PubMed and other databases strengthen their market positioning.
Security posture
The website currently demonstrates a basic security posture with HTTPS implied but not explicitly confirmed in the data. No security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options are detected, and the use of an outdated jQuery version introduces potential vulnerabilities. Absence of privacy and cookie policies indicates GDPR compliance gaps. No incident response or security contact information is provided, limiting the ability to report or respond to security issues. The site does not appear to be behind a WAF or security challenge, and no critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but requires improvements to meet best practices and regulatory requirements.
Recommendations
Implement and publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to ensure GDPR compliance.
Upgrade JavaScript libraries, especially jQuery, to supported secure versions to mitigate vulnerabilities.
Add standard security headers (Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to improve security posture.
Provide clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for customer support and incident response.
Conduct a security audit to verify SSL/TLS configuration and enforce HTTPS site-wide.

Technical notes
Notes
The website uses legacy front-end technologies including jQuery 1.7.2 and jQuery UI 1.12.1, along with Modernizr for feature detection. Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager are integrated for user tracking. The site is hosted on Aerohosting servers as indicated by the nameservers. CSS and HTML structure are standard but lack advanced accessibility features. Performance is moderate with no explicit optimization for mobile devices beyond basic responsive design. SEO metadata is minimal with empty description and keywords meta tags. No CMS other than the proprietary Actavia system is detected. The site would benefit from modernization of its tech stack and improved SEO and accessibility practices.
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.
