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

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • 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"

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

Business profile

STVR holds a key role in Slovakia's media landscape as a public broadcaster, leveraging multiple digital platforms to distribute content. Its business model focuses on public service broadcasting funded likely through public funds and possibly supplemented by merchandising via its e-shop. The broadcaster's extensive network of radio stations and TV channels, along with active social media engagement, supports broad audience reach and brand recognition. Partnerships with related domains and creative centers enhance its content production capabilities. The absence of direct contact emails or phone numbers on the main site suggests a controlled communication channel, likely to manage public inquiries efficiently. The organization's digital maturity is evident but could benefit from enhanced transparency in security and privacy policies.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, modern security headers, and cookie consent mechanisms aligned with GDPR requirements. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. However, the lack of a dedicated security policy page, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates room for improvement in transparency and readiness. The use of third-party analytics and tracking services is balanced with user consent, reflecting compliance with privacy standards. Overall, the security measures are adequate for a public media website but could be strengthened by formalizing security governance documentation and communication.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive security policy page outlining security practices and user protections.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Add explicit data protection officer contact information to enhance GDPR compliance transparency.
  5. Enhance website accessibility features to improve inclusivity and compliance with standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using standard web technologies including HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript, with integration of Google Tag Manager and Gemius analytics for tracking. It uses modern image formats like WebP for performance optimization and employs cookie consent management via CookieFirst. The site is mobile responsive with good navigation clarity and SEO optimization through proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Performance is moderate, with some dynamic content loading via JavaScript. Hosting details are not explicitly available from the HTML content. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a stable and user-friendly experience but could benefit from enhanced accessibility and performance tuning.
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.
