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

The website www.svitavy.cz serves as the official municipal portal for the city of Svitavy in the Czech Republic. It provides comprehensive information about the city administration, public services, cultural events, and citizen resources. The site targets residents and visitors, offering a well-structured navigation system and multiple language options via external translation links. The business model is that of a government service portal, with a medium-sized organizational footprint and a focus on transparency and public engagement. Technically, the site is built on Drupal 10, leveraging modern web technologies including Bootstrap for responsive design, Google Analytics for traffic monitoring, and various JavaScript libraries for enhanced user experience. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with good SEO practices evident in meta tags and structured navigation. Performance is moderate, with no critical errors or broken elements detected. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and implements a cookie consent mechanism compliant with EU GDPR regulations. However, it lacks visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, which are recommended to enhance security posture. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. The absence of WHOIS data limits the ability to fully verify domain legitimacy, but the official branding and content strongly support authenticity. Overall, the website presents a trustworthy and professional digital presence for the city government, with room for security enhancements and improved transparency in incident response and vulnerability disclosure policies. The risk level is low, and the site is safe for general audiences.

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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, YouTube

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  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"

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 city of Svitavy operates this portal as its official communication and service platform. The site positions itself as a central hub for municipal information, including governance, public notices, social services, cultural institutions, and community engagement. The presence of multiple partner domains related to local services and cultural organizations indicates a well-integrated ecosystem. The business model is non-commercial, focused on public service delivery. The site’s content and structure suggest a medium-sized municipal organization with a stable market position in the government sector. The use of modern CMS and analytics tools reflects a commitment to digital maturity and user engagement. No commercial revenue streams or affiliate programs are evident, consistent with its government nature.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a baseline security posture with HTTPS enforced and a GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanism. The absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options represents an area for improvement to mitigate risks like clickjacking and MIME sniffing. No exposed credentials or sensitive data were detected. The site does not publicly disclose an incident response policy or vulnerability disclosure program, which could enhance transparency and trust. The use of third-party scripts like Google Analytics and external chatbot services introduces potential privacy considerations but appears managed through consent. Overall, the security maturity is moderate, suitable for a government informational site but with opportunities for strengthening defenses and compliance documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Create and expose a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to prevent vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance WHOIS data availability or domain registration transparency to improve trust and legitimacy verification.

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.
