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 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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';…

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 occupies a niche position in the Slovak retail and media sector focused on gardening and lifestyle content. Its business model combines content publishing with advertising revenue and e-commerce referrals, primarily through the linked zahradnyobchod.sk e-shop. The company RETAIL MEDIA Slovakia, s.r.o. appears to be the legal entity behind the portal, with no subsidiaries identified. The portal targets gardening hobbyists and consumers interested in garden products and design inspiration. Its partnership ecosystem includes advertising networks like Google Adsense and programmatic partners such as VDX.tv and Index Exchange. The site demonstrates consistent branding and content quality, supporting its market credibility and growth potential.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with good SSL configuration and standard security headers, indicating a baseline secure environment. It uses cookie consent banners to comply with privacy regulations and integrates Google Analytics and advertising scripts responsibly. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a dedicated security policy page and incident response contacts suggests room for improvement in transparency and preparedness. The site should consider publishing explicit security and incident response policies and regularly auditing third-party scripts to mitigate risks. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a content portal but could be enhanced for higher assurance.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response information page to improve transparency and user trust.
  2. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and libraries to avoid potential vulnerabilities.
  3. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.
  4. Implement more detailed data retention and privacy policies to strengthen GDPR compliance.
  5. Consider performance optimization to improve loading speed and mobile experience further.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Joomla CMS with Bootstrap and jQuery frameworks, using Google Fonts for typography and Google services for analytics and advertising. The presence of a custom photo gallery plugin (Twojtoolbox) adds rich media capabilities. The site is mobile responsive with good SEO meta tags and structured navigation. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in caching and script optimization. Hosting provider details are not explicit but the site uses HTTPS and standard security headers. The technical stack is modern and suitable for a content-driven portal, though continuous maintenance is recommended to keep dependencies up to date and secure.
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.
