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

Znaki FM is an online multilingual news and media platform founded in 2016, providing up-to-date news on politics, economy, sports, culture, music, and more. The website targets a general global audience interested in diverse topical news coverage. Technically, the site uses Cloudflare for DNS and hosting, and Google Analytics for visitor tracking. The site is moderately optimized for performance and mobile devices, with good SEO practices and a consistent branding approach. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS and has domain transfer protection enabled, but lacks DNSSEC and explicit security policies. Privacy compliance is weak due to the absence of privacy and cookie policies, and no contact or incident response information is provided. Overall, the site is accessible and safe for general audiences, but improvements in privacy and security transparency are recommended.

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. 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.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  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

      • 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';…

  3. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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 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

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

Znaki FM operates as a media content platform aggregating news and information across multiple categories and languages. Its business model likely relies on advertising and content engagement. The site shows a consistent brand presence and a broad topical scope, positioning itself as a general news source. The lack of explicit business contact details and policies suggests a smaller scale operation or a focus on content delivery rather than direct customer engagement. The use of Cloudflare and Google Analytics indicates a standard modern web infrastructure. No partnerships or subsidiaries are evident from the data.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security posture with HTTPS enforced and domain transfer protection active. However, the absence of DNSSEC reduces DNS security. No explicit security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are present, which limits transparency and readiness for security incidents. The use of Google Analytics introduces moderate user tracking without visible privacy controls. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided content. Overall, the security maturity is average with room for improvement in policy publication and DNS security.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with GDPR compliance details.
  3. Add clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for business and security incidents.
  4. Implement and publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosures.
  5. Improve privacy compliance by adding cookie consent mechanisms and limiting tracking.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack including Cloudflare for DNS and hosting, Google Analytics for tracking, and standard web technologies (HTML5, CSS, JavaScript). The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and good SEO metadata. Performance is moderate, with some images using lazy loading. No CMS or specific frameworks were detected from the provided data. The site lacks advanced accessibility features but maintains basic usability. Technical debt appears low, but the absence of DNSSEC and security policies indicates areas for modernization and risk mitigation.
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.
