It holds a solid position in the Czech market as a trusted source for financial knowledge and broker reviews. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with modern SEO and analytics integrations, providing a good user experience with mobile optimization and clear navigation.

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. 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"

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

  3. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • High

      No DMARC record found

      DMARC provides email authentication and reporting

      What to do: Add DMARC record: "v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:dmarc@yourdomain.com"

  4. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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 operates primarily as a content publisher with affiliate marketing revenue streams through broker referrals such as XTB and eToro. Its target audience includes Czech-speaking individuals seeking financial education and investment opportunities. The business model leverages high-quality content and trusted broker partnerships to generate leads and commissions. Market positioning is strong within the Czech Republic's personal finance niche, with consistent branding and professional content. Growth potential exists through expanding content offerings and enhancing direct contact and compliance transparency. The partnership ecosystem includes major brokers and financial service providers, supporting credibility and monetization.

Security posture

The security maturity level is moderate. The site enforces HTTPS and avoids exposing sensitive data in its HTML content. However, explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options are not detected and should be implemented to harden security. No vulnerabilities or malware indicators were found in the content. Compliance with GDPR is partially indicated by cookie consent mechanisms but lacks a clearly accessible privacy policy page. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure information are absent, which could be improved to enhance security culture and readiness. Overall, the site maintains a reasonable security posture suitable for its business type but should address compliance and header improvements.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a clear and accessible privacy policy page to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  3. Add explicit contact information including company emails and phone numbers for transparency.
  4. Consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve security culture.
  5. Regularly audit and update all plugins and third-party scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern WordPress CMS platform with popular plugins such as Yoast SEO for search optimization and Google Analytics for traffic monitoring. It integrates external financial widgets from TradingView and advertising via Google Adsense. The site loads Google Fonts and jQuery libraries, indicating a standard but somewhat legacy frontend stack. Performance is moderate with room for optimization, especially in lazy loading images and script management. Mobile optimization is good, ensuring accessibility on various devices. The site lacks advanced accessibility features but maintains basic standards. Hosting provider details are not explicitly found. Overall, the technical infrastructure is stable and suitable for content publishing but could benefit from modernization and performance tuning.
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.
