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

Parola spol. s r.o. operates the regional news website 'Jihlavské listy' focused on political and local news for the Vysočina region in the Czech Republic. The site offers news articles, political commentary, advertising services, and subscription options, targeting local residents and politically engaged audiences. The business model relies on advertising revenue and local subscriptions, positioning itself as a key regional media outlet since its founding in 2007. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including Bootstrap, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and CKEditor, providing a responsive and user-friendly experience. Security measures include HTTPS, Google reCAPTCHA, and secure login forms, though some security headers are missing. Privacy compliance is basic with cookie consent implemented but no explicit privacy or terms of service pages found. The domain WHOIS data is unavailable, limiting trust analysis, but the presence of company contact details and consistent branding supports legitimacy. Overall, the website is functional, moderately secure, and professionally maintained with room for improvement in privacy and security practices.

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

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  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 company holds a solid position in the regional media sector, focusing on local political news and community engagement. Its competitive advantage lies in localized content and established presence in Jihlava and Vysočina. Revenue streams include advertising via major ad networks and subscription services. The target customers are local residents, political followers, and advertisers seeking regional exposure. Partnerships with related domains and local organizations enhance its ecosystem. Growth indicators include active content updates and diversified advertising. Strategic observations suggest enhancing privacy policies and security to strengthen user trust and compliance.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security posture with HTTPS enforced and use of Google reCAPTCHA to protect forms. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and HSTS reduces defense-in-depth. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided content. Privacy compliance is minimal, lacking explicit policies. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are not evident. Overall, the security maturity is adequate for a regional news site but could benefit from enhanced headers, documented policies, and regular security audits.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and HSTS.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy and terms of service policies to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  3. Conduct regular security audits of third-party scripts and dependencies to identify vulnerabilities.
  4. Establish clear incident response and vulnerability disclosure procedures with dedicated contact channels.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and SEO optimization to improve user experience and reach.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack with Bootstrap for responsive design, CKEditor for content management, and Google services for analytics and tag management. Performance is moderate with no major issues detected. The site is mobile-optimized and has clear navigation. However, the CMS is custom or unknown, which may pose maintenance challenges. The lack of explicit hosting provider information limits infrastructure assessment. Technical debt appears low but could be improved by adopting standard CMS platforms and enhancing 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.
