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

Vysoká škola uměleckoprůmyslová v Praze (UMPRUM) is a reputable Czech higher education institution specializing in arts and design disciplines. The website serves as a comprehensive portal for students, applicants, alumni, and the general public, providing information on academic programs, research, exhibitions, and cultural events. The institution maintains a strong market position within the Czech Republic's education sector, focusing on creative arts and design education. The website is bilingual, supporting Czech and English languages, enhancing accessibility for international audiences. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including Matomo for analytics, Bootstrap for responsive design, and AJAX frameworks for dynamic content loading. The site is mobile-optimized and demonstrates good performance and SEO practices. However, some improvements could be made in accessibility and security headers implementation to enhance overall robustness. From a security perspective, the website enforces HTTPS and uses secure form submissions, but lacks advanced security headers and visible incident response contacts. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Privacy compliance is partially addressed with privacy and cookie policies present, though no explicit consent mechanism was observed. The WHOIS data is unavailable due to privacy protection, which is common for Czech domains and does not raise immediate concerns. Overall, UMPRUM's website is professional, content-rich, and trustworthy, with a solid security posture and good technical infrastructure. Strategic enhancements in security headers, incident response visibility, and privacy consent mechanisms would further strengthen its compliance and security maturity.

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. 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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube

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

  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 Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

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

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

UMPRUM operates as a public educational institution focused on arts and design, targeting students, academics, and the cultural community. Its business model revolves around providing accredited academic programs, research opportunities, and public cultural events. The institution leverages digital platforms such as UMPRUM Online to extend its educational reach. The website's integration with social media and newsletter subscriptions indicates active engagement with its audience. The lack of commercial advertising and affiliate programs aligns with its non-profit educational nature. The institution's partnerships and collaborations are implied through content but no explicit partner domains were identified. Growth indicators include frequent news updates and event announcements, reflecting an active academic calendar and community involvement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with mandatory HTTPS encryption and secure form handling. The absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. No exposed credentials or sensitive information were found. The use of Matomo analytics indicates a preference for privacy-respecting tracking solutions. However, the lack of a security.txt file or clear incident response contacts limits transparency for vulnerability reporting. Compliance with GDPR is partially evident through privacy and cookie policies, but explicit consent mechanisms are missing. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from enhanced header configurations and incident response readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Add a visible security.txt file and dedicated contact channels for vulnerability disclosure and incident response to improve transparency and responsiveness.
  3. Introduce explicit cookie consent mechanisms to strengthen GDPR compliance and user privacy control.
  4. Publish clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for general and security-related inquiries to improve trust and communication.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and frameworks to mitigate potential vulnerabilities and maintain technical currency.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web technologies including JavaScript, CSS, and AJAX frameworks (Naja). It uses Matomo for analytics, indicating a privacy-conscious approach. The site is responsive, supporting mobile devices well, and employs FontAwesome for icons. The HTML structure is valid and SEO-friendly with appropriate meta tags. Performance is moderate, with room for optimization in loading times and accessibility features. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary content management solution. Hosting details are not disclosed. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and user-friendly experience but could benefit from enhanced accessibility 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.
