Medium risk. 8 critical or high findings in Security headers, GDPR outside view and 2 other checks.

Security score

68/100

Risk levelMedium

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

The PUB operates a chain of pubs primarily in the Czech Republic with additional locations in Berlin and Bucharest. The business focuses on providing a unique beer experience including self-service taps, master bartenders, and beer pouring education, complemented by food offerings. The website is professionally designed with good mobile optimization and clear navigation, supporting their hospitality business model. Technically, the site uses common web technologies such as jQuery and GSAP, with Google Analytics and Tag Manager for tracking. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS and domain transfer protections, but lacks DNSSEC and security headers. Privacy compliance is weak due to absence of privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the domain age and WHOIS data support the legitimacy of the business.

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. 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

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

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 PUB is positioned as a regional hospitality leader with multiple physical locations and international presence. Their competitive advantage lies in offering interactive beer experiences and quality food pairing. The business model is traditional hospitality with digital reservation capabilities. Target customers include beer enthusiasts and social groups. The company shows growth through expansion into Germany and Romania. Partnerships appear limited to sister domains. The website content and branding are consistent, supporting a trustworthy market presence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and domain transfer protections. However, the lack of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces defense in depth. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is provided, indicating limited transparency in security practices. The presence of multiple redundant analytics scripts may increase attack surface. No exposed sensitive data was detected. Compliance gaps exist in privacy and cookie policy disclosures, which may impact GDPR adherence.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement standard security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, HSTS) to improve browser security.
  3. Consolidate Google Analytics scripts to reduce redundancy and potential performance impact.
  4. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear consent mechanisms to improve GDPR compliance.
  5. Establish and publicize a vulnerability disclosure policy and incident response contacts to enhance security transparency.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern but common tech stack including jQuery and GSAP for animations, with Google Analytics and Tag Manager for tracking. The site is hosted under Tucows Domains Inc. with DNS servers from Forpsi. Performance is moderate with good mobile responsiveness. SEO and accessibility are basic but functional. The site lacks advanced CMS indicators and appears custom-built or lightly templated. Technical risks include redundant analytics scripts and missing DNSSEC. Overall, the infrastructure supports the business needs but could benefit from modernization and security enhancements.
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.
