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

The website tessinineurope.eu represents a municipal project called Český Těšín/Cieszyn INEurope, focused on strengthening cross-border cooperation between the Polish and Czech parts of the Těšín Silesia Euroregion. It is funded by the European Union and managed by the City Office of Cieszyn. The site provides information about the project, news updates, partner organizations, and contact options. The target audience includes local residents, regional institutions, NGOs, and tourists interested in the region's cultural and social integration. The business model is a public sector initiative supported by EU funds, emphasizing regional development and cooperation. Technically, the website uses a custom CMS with modern frontend technologies such as Bootstrap, jQuery, Owl Carousel, and Google services including Analytics and reCAPTCHA. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and SEO-friendly, with a moderate performance profile. Security measures include HTTPS enforcement and spam protection on forms, though some HTTP security headers are missing. From a security perspective, the site demonstrates a good baseline posture with no critical vulnerabilities detected. However, it lacks explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and advanced security headers. Privacy compliance is basic, with GDPR consent on the contact form and a privacy policy page, but no cookie consent mechanism is present. No terms of service or vulnerability disclosure policies are found. Overall, the website is trustworthy, professionally maintained, and serves its public sector purpose well. Strategic improvements in security headers, privacy transparency, and incident response readiness would enhance its security posture and compliance. The domain registration is consistent with the business history, and no suspicious patterns are identified.

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

10 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

  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"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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

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 project operates in the government and non-profit sectors, focusing on cross-border regional cooperation and cultural integration. It leverages EU funding to deliver services such as tourism development, information centers, and community engagement. The partnership ecosystem includes municipal offices and regional associations from both Poland and the Czech Republic. The business model is grant-funded public service, with no commercial revenue streams. Growth indicators include ongoing project updates and active partner collaboration. Competitive advantages lie in official backing and EU support, positioning the project as a key regional initiative fostering cross-border ties.

Security posture

The website maintains a moderate to good security posture with HTTPS enforced and Google reCAPTCHA protecting the contact form against spam. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of common security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. There is no visible incident response or security contact information, which limits transparency and readiness. Privacy compliance is basic, with GDPR consent on forms but no cookie consent banner. Overall, the site is secure for its purpose but would benefit from enhanced security controls and documented policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to strengthen browser security.
  2. Add explicit security and incident response policies with dedicated contact channels to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Introduce a cookie consent mechanism to comply fully with GDPR and ePrivacy regulations.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance privacy policy details to cover data retention, user rights, and processing practices comprehensively.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a custom CMS platform utilizing Bootstrap for responsive design and jQuery for interactivity. It integrates third-party libraries such as Owl Carousel and Lightbox for UI components. Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager are used for traffic analysis, while Google reCAPTCHA protects forms from spam. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with semantic HTML and ARIA landmarks. Performance is moderate, with room for optimization in asset loading and caching. No major technical debt or deprecated technologies were observed. Hosting details are not explicitly identified from the content.
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.
