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

VLbiz is a media-focused website providing access to two established media brands: Večernji List and Poslovni Dnevnik. The site serves as a portal to these media outlets, targeting a general audience interested in news and business content. The business model centers on media publishing and content distribution, with a market presence supported by a domain age of over 14 years. The website uses WordPress CMS with WooCommerce and popular plugins such as WPBakery Page Builder and Slider Revolution, indicating a modern and flexible technical infrastructure. SEO is enhanced through structured data and Rank Math SEO plugin integration. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS enabled and domain registration protected by privacy services, but lacks DNSSEC and explicit security headers. Privacy compliance is weak due to absence of privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the website is professionally designed and functional but would benefit from enhanced privacy and security disclosures.

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

6 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 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 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

    • 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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Facebook, Twitter, Google APIs

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

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 website positions itself as a media portal linking two media brands, indicating a partnership or shared ownership. The domain's longevity and consistent branding suggest a stable market position in the media sector. The business likely generates revenue through media content distribution and possibly advertising or subscriptions via WooCommerce. The target audience is broad, encompassing general news consumers and business professionals. The partnership with Poslovni Dnevnik expands its reach into business news. The absence of direct contact information and privacy policies may limit user trust and regulatory compliance. The technical ecosystem is mature, leveraging popular WordPress plugins and themes, which supports scalability and content management efficiency.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS, ensuring encrypted communications, and the domain is registered with privacy protection, which is standard for media companies. However, the lack of DNSSEC and missing security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represent potential security gaps. No incident response or security policy information is publicly available, which could hinder rapid response to security incidents. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files were found, limiting transparency for security researchers. The site uses common WordPress plugins, which require regular updates to mitigate vulnerabilities. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be improved with enhanced security controls and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with GDPR compliance and consent mechanisms.
  2. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  3. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to harden the website against common attacks.
  4. Publish incident response and vulnerability disclosure policies to improve transparency and security readiness.
  5. Provide clear contact information including security and abuse contacts to enhance trust and compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with WooCommerce for e-commerce capabilities, enhanced by WPBakery Page Builder and Slider Revolution for content presentation. It uses jQuery and jQuery UI libraries, Font Awesome icons, and Google Fonts for styling and interactivity. The hosting and domain registration are managed via GoDaddy and DNS servers at styri-it.hr. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and SEO practices including structured data and canonical tags. Accessibility is basic, with room for improvement. The technical stack is modern but requires ongoing maintenance to ensure security and performance. No critical technical issues or broken elements were detected in the homepage 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.
