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

Hrvatsko društvo sudskih vještaka i procjenitelja (HDSVIP) is a Croatian non-profit professional association dedicated to the advancement of court experts and appraisers. Established in 2004, it serves as a voluntary, non-governmental, and non-partisan organization focused on improving the role and institution of court experts within the judiciary and related institutions. The association is a recognized member of international bodies such as EuroExpert, HUM, and TEGoVA, enhancing its credibility and network. The website provides information about the association's initiatives, news, events, and resources for members and the public. Technically, the website is built using standard HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript with jQuery 1.8.3. It is hosted behind Cloudflare DNS services, suggesting HTTPS usage, although explicit security headers are not visible in the provided data. The site has a moderate performance profile with basic mobile optimization and accessibility features. Navigation is clear and content is professionally presented, targeting professionals in the judiciary and appraisal sectors primarily in Croatia. From a security perspective, the site shows some good practices such as using Cloudflare and secure form submission for member login. However, the use of an outdated jQuery version and absence of visible security headers indicate potential vulnerabilities. There is no visible privacy or cookie policy, which is a compliance gap under GDPR. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, limiting transparency in security management. Overall, the website is trustworthy and professional but would benefit from updates to its security posture and privacy compliance. Strategic improvements in these areas would enhance user trust and regulatory adherence.

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.

Priority findings

  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

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

HDSVIP occupies a niche market as a professional association for court experts and appraisers in Croatia. Its competitive advantage lies in its long-standing establishment since 2004 and membership in respected international organizations, which strengthens its authority and network. The business model is non-profit, funded exclusively by its own resources, focusing on member services such as education, advocacy, and professional standards. The target customers are legal professionals, judiciary institutions, and appraisal experts. The website reflects active engagement through news, initiatives, and events, indicating ongoing growth and relevance. Partnerships with EuroExpert, HUM, and TEGoVA provide strategic alliances enhancing its market position. The absence of commercial advertising and tracking suggests a focus on member service rather than revenue generation through marketing.

Security posture

The current security maturity level of the website is moderate but with notable gaps. The use of Cloudflare DNS and likely HTTPS provides a baseline of security. However, the outdated jQuery library version 1.8.3 is a significant vulnerability that could be exploited. The lack of visible security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. No privacy or cookie policies are present, which is a compliance risk under GDPR. The absence of incident response contact channels or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms limits the organization's readiness to handle security incidents. Overall, while no critical vulnerabilities are evident from the HTML content, the site would benefit from modernization of its tech stack, implementation of security headers, and formal privacy and incident response policies to improve its security posture.

Recommendations

  1. Update the jQuery library to the latest secure version to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  2. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content Security Policy, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  3. Publish clear privacy and cookie policies to comply with GDPR and enhance user trust.
  4. Establish and display incident response contact information and vulnerability disclosure procedures.
  5. Enhance mobile optimization and accessibility to improve user experience across devices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a traditional web stack with HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript, including jQuery 1.8.3, which is outdated and poses security risks. The site is hosted with DNS managed by Cloudflare, indicating potential HTTPS usage, though explicit SSL configuration details are not provided. The design is professional but basic, with limited mobile responsiveness and accessibility features. SEO is basic with meta tags and Open Graph tags present but no advanced structured data like JSON-LD. The site lacks modern frameworks or CMS indications, suggesting a custom or static site approach. Performance is moderate, with no heavy scripts or tracking detected. Technical debt is present due to outdated libraries and missing security best practices, representing modernization opportunities to improve security and user experience.
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.
