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

Webstack is a technology-focused conference primarily targeting web developers, including Laravel artisans and software developers, with a focus on full-stack development and AI. Founded in 2023 and based in Slovakia, it organizes annual events in Bratislava, offering sponsorship and ticket sales as key business activities. The website is professionally designed with excellent content quality, clear navigation, and strong branding consistency. Technically, it employs modern JavaScript libraries and frameworks such as Alpine.js, Flickity, FancyBox, and Google reCAPTCHA v3, hosted on Websupport infrastructure with DNSSEC enabled and HTTPS enforced, indicating a mature digital presence. Security posture is strong with best practices observed, though the absence of a cookie consent mechanism and published security policies are areas for improvement. Overall, the domain registration details are consistent and legitimate, supporting the trustworthiness of the business. The site integrates social media and marketing tools like Facebook Pixel and Plausible Analytics, with moderate user tracking and basic privacy compliance. The website is safe for general audiences and does not contain any adult or questionable content.

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

8 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 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

  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

Webstack positions itself as a regional leader in web development conferences, leveraging partnerships with companies like Brackets and Craftable Pro. Its business model revolves around event organization, sponsorship acquisition, and ticket sales, targeting the developer community in Slovakia and surrounding regions. The presence of testimonials from industry professionals and a growing gallery of past events indicate positive market reception and community engagement. The use of third-party ticketing platforms and social media channels enhances its outreach and operational efficiency. The company is relatively new but shows signs of steady growth and professional management.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with HTTPS and DNSSEC enabled, use of Google reCAPTCHA v3 to protect forms, and no visible exposure of sensitive data. Security headers are implied but not explicitly listed in the HTML content. However, the lack of a published security policy, incident response plan, or vulnerability disclosure mechanism limits transparency and preparedness. The absence of a cookie consent banner despite tracking scripts may pose compliance risks under GDPR. No vulnerabilities or suspicious activities were detected in the provided content. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by formalizing policies and improving privacy compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a visible cookie consent banner to ensure GDPR compliance and inform users about tracking.
  2. Publish a comprehensive security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  3. Add terms of service to clarify user rights and obligations.
  4. Consider establishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party libraries and scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a custom platform using modern front-end technologies including Alpine.js for reactive components, Flickity for carousels, FancyBox for media display, and TypeIt for animated typing effects. It uses Google reCAPTCHA v3 for bot protection and Axios for asynchronous HTTP requests. The site is hosted by Websupport, a reputable Slovak hosting provider, with DNSSEC enabled for DNS security. Performance is optimized with preloading of CSS and asynchronous loading of scripts. The site is mobile responsive with good accessibility features and SEO optimization through proper meta tags and Open Graph data. No CMS was detected, indicating a custom development approach. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern, performant, and well-maintained.
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.
