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

Město Turnov is the official municipal government website for the city of Turnov in the Czech Republic. It serves as a comprehensive portal providing residents and visitors with access to city news, events, public notices, official documents, and contact information for various city departments. The website also offers online services such as form downloads, appointment reservations, and public procurement announcements, positioning itself as a key digital interface for local government services. Technically, the website utilizes a mix of traditional web technologies including jQuery and jQuery UI, integrated with modern analytics tools like Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity. It is built on the Public4u CMS platform, which is specialized for municipal websites. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization and accessibility features, ensuring usability across devices and for users with disabilities. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses reputable analytics services. However, there is a lack of visible security headers which could enhance protection against common web vulnerabilities. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain is a notable gap, though the website content and official contact details strongly support its legitimacy. Privacy and cookie policies are well implemented with consent mechanisms, aligning with GDPR requirements. Overall, the website presents a professional and trustworthy digital presence for the city government, with moderate technical sophistication and a solid privacy posture. Strategic improvements in security headers and domain registration transparency would further strengthen its security and trust profile.

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

6 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 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"

    • 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';…

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

Město Turnov operates as a local government entity providing essential public services and information to its community. Its market positioning is that of a trusted municipal authority, focusing on transparency, citizen engagement, and service accessibility. The business model is service-oriented, funded by public resources, with no commercial revenue streams. The target audience includes residents, local businesses, tourists, and government employees. The website supports growth in digital government services and fosters partnerships with local cultural and environmental organizations. The presence of public procurement portals and event calendars indicates active community involvement and infrastructure development. The site’s ecosystem includes related domains for GIS mapping, public procurement, and municipal communication platforms, reflecting a well-integrated digital government infrastructure.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a baseline security maturity with HTTPS enforced and no visible exposure of sensitive data in the HTML content. The use of Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity introduces third-party scripts that require ongoing monitoring for vulnerabilities. The lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a gap that could expose the site to clickjacking and content injection risks. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is publicly available, which limits transparency in security management. Privacy compliance is strong with clear cookie consent and GDPR-aligned policies. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a municipal website but would benefit from enhanced header configurations, published security policies, and a formal vulnerability disclosure process.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a security.txt file and establish a clear vulnerability disclosure policy to improve transparency and incident response readiness.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and analytics tools to minimize risks from external dependencies.
  4. Enhance WHOIS domain registration transparency or verify domain registration details to improve trustworthiness.
  5. Maintain and update privacy and cookie policies to reflect evolving legal requirements and best practices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Public4u CMS platform, leveraging jQuery and jQuery UI libraries for interactive elements. It integrates Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity for analytics and user behavior tracking. The site uses asynchronous loading for scripts to optimize performance. Mobile optimization and accessibility features are well implemented, including keyboard navigation and voice assistant support. The site’s SEO is supported by appropriate meta tags and structured navigation. Performance is moderate, with room for improvement in loading speed and resource optimization. The absence of advanced frameworks or modern JavaScript libraries suggests a conservative technology approach typical for government sites. Hosting details are not explicitly identified, but the presence of Czech-specific services indicates local or regional hosting. Overall, the technical infrastructure is stable but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security configurations.
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.
