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

The website www.zlinfest.cz represents the official online presence of the 65th International Film Festival for Children and Youth held in Zlín, Czech Republic. It serves as a comprehensive platform for festival programming, news, and event information targeting children, youth, film professionals, and enthusiasts. The site features detailed program sections, industry events, and multimedia content, supported by a mobile application for ticketing and scheduling. The festival is well-established with notable partners including government and regional cultural bodies, indicating a strong market position in the cultural media sector. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, and utilizes libraries such as Splide.js for carousels and Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and SEO-friendly with proper meta tags and social media integration. Security posture is good with HTTPS enforced and secure form handling, though explicit security headers and privacy policies are not clearly presented. From a security and compliance perspective, the absence of WHOIS data limits domain trust verification. No privacy or cookie policies were detected, which is a compliance gap under GDPR. Contact information is minimal, limited to a newsletter subscription form without explicit company emails or phone numbers. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is available. Overall, the site is professional and content-rich but would benefit from enhanced transparency and compliance documentation. Strategically, the festival should prioritize publishing clear privacy and cookie policies, implement security headers, and provide contact details for data protection and incident response. These steps will improve trust, compliance, and security posture, supporting the festival's reputation and digital 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

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 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

  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

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 Zlín Film Festival operates as a cultural event organizer specializing in children's and youth films, with a strong international presence. Its business model revolves around event management, film screenings, industry networking, and educational programming. Revenue streams likely include ticket sales, sponsorships, partnerships with cultural institutions, and merchandising via an e-shop. The festival targets families, educators, filmmakers, and industry professionals. Its partnership ecosystem includes government ministries, regional authorities, and cultural funds, enhancing its credibility and funding stability. The website's comprehensive program and multimedia content indicate a mature digital strategy supporting audience engagement and growth. However, the lack of visible business contact details and WHOIS transparency suggests room for improvement in corporate communication and trust signals.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security posture with HTTPS enabled and secure form handling including CSRF tokens. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No sensitive data exposure or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The lack of privacy and cookie policies, as well as missing incident response and vulnerability disclosure information, indicates compliance and transparency gaps. The WHOIS data is unavailable, which raises concerns about domain legitimacy verification. Overall, the site is secure for general use but should enhance security headers, publish compliance documents, and provide clear security contact channels to improve trust and regulatory adherence.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with explicit GDPR compliance statements and user consent mechanisms.
  2. Implement and verify security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Provide clear contact information for data protection officer and security incident response.
  4. Investigate and resolve WHOIS data unavailability to improve domain legitimacy and trust.
  5. Enhance transparency by adding vulnerability disclosure and incident response policies.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern and well-structured front-end stack with HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript. It leverages Splide.js for interactive carousels and Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing integration. The site is mobile responsive and accessible with good SEO practices including meta tags and Open Graph data. Performance is moderate with some large images but overall good user experience. No CMS or backend technologies were explicitly detected. Hosting provider details are not available from the HTML content. The site uses asynchronous loading for analytics scripts to optimize performance. Technical risks include missing security headers and incomplete compliance documentation, which should be addressed to reduce potential vulnerabilities and regulatory risks.
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.
