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

Schwimmclub Aarefisch is a Swiss swimming club recognized as one of the leading youth training centers in Switzerland. The club offers competitive swimming training, swimming school courses for children and adults, and organizes swimming competitions. The website reflects a well-structured sports club with clear contact information and partnerships with local organizations and sponsors. Technically, the site uses a modern tech stack including Bootstrap and Fairgate CMS, providing a responsive and user-friendly experience. However, the site lacks privacy and cookie policies, security headers, and incident response information, which are important for compliance and security. Overall, the site is legitimate and professional but could improve its security posture and privacy compliance.

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. 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"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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';…
  2. 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

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 club operates as a non-profit sports organization targeting swimming enthusiasts in Switzerland, especially youth and adults interested in swimming education and competitive sports. It maintains partnerships with local businesses and sports organizations, enhancing its community presence. The business model focuses on membership, training services, and event organization. The website content and structure support a clear market positioning as a reputable swimming club with a focus on youth development.

Security posture

The website currently lacks key security features such as security headers and documented security policies. There is no evidence of vulnerability disclosure or incident response readiness. While HTTPS is assumed but not confirmed from the data, the absence of security best practices and compliance documentation indicates a moderate security maturity level. The club should prioritize implementing security headers, privacy policies, and incident response mechanisms to enhance trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to comply with GDPR.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and HSTS.
  3. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy and incident response contact information.
  4. Conduct a security audit to identify and remediate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and SEO optimization for better user experience and reach.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern and popular front-end framework (Bootstrap 4.6.1) and iconography (Font Awesome 6.7.2). It is built on the Fairgate CMS platform, which provides structured content management. The site loads multiple Google Fonts and uses Unite Gallery for image galleries. Hosting appears to be via Fairgate's proxy service. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization. However, no explicit analytics or tracking services were detected, indicating minimal user tracking. The site could benefit from improved SEO meta tags and accessibility enhancements.
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.
