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

Agriquali is a service entity under the Schweizer Bauernverband (Swiss Farmers' Union) focused on managing quality assurance programs for Swiss agricultural products such as meat, fish, and veal. The website serves as an informational and service portal targeting Swiss agricultural producers, food industry stakeholders, and consumers interested in Swiss quality products. The organization holds ISO 9001:2018 certification and promotes Swiss quality labels like Suisse Garantie, positioning itself as a niche leader in agricultural quality management within Switzerland. Technically, the website is built on TYPO3 CMS, leveraging modern web technologies including Bootstrap and Google Analytics for tracking. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and SEO-friendly with structured data and meta tags. Performance is moderate with no critical technical issues detected. Privacy compliance is basic but includes a cookie consent banner and a privacy policy page in German. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and avoids exposing sensitive data. However, it lacks visible security headers and does not publish a dedicated security policy or incident response contacts. No vulnerabilities or suspicious domains were detected. The WHOIS data aligns well with the organization's identity, showing a consistent and legitimate registration. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and well-maintained with room for improvement in security policy transparency and contact information clarity.

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. 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';…

  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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, Twitter, Google APIs

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  3. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 384-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

Agriquali operates within the government and non-profit sectors, providing essential quality management services for Swiss agricultural products. Its competitive advantage lies in its affiliation with the Schweizer Bauernverband and recognized certifications such as ISO 9001:2018. The business model revolves around service provision to agricultural producers and industry stakeholders, enhancing product quality assurance and consumer trust. The website reflects a medium-sized organization with a focused target audience in Switzerland. Partnerships with related agricultural organizations strengthen its ecosystem. Growth indicators include active quality programs and digital presence with multilingual support. Strategic observations suggest potential benefits from expanding contact transparency and security communication to enhance stakeholder confidence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented, aligning with GDPR requirements. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and lack of published security or incident response policies indicate gaps in security best practices. The site does not provide a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file, limiting transparency for security researchers. Incident response readiness is unclear due to missing contact channels for security issues. Overall, the security posture is adequate for the business type but could be improved by adopting additional security headers, publishing security policies, and enhancing incident response communication.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection.
  3. Provide clear incident response contact information, including security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  4. Consider implementing and publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Enhance contact information visibility by including verified company emails and phone numbers for better user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a robust and widely used content management system, ensuring a stable and maintainable platform. It uses modern front-end technologies including Bootstrap for responsive design and Google Fonts for typography. SEO is enhanced via Yoast SEO for TYPO3 and structured data (JSON-LD) is implemented for better search engine understanding. Google Analytics is used for visitor tracking, with a cookie consent mechanism in place to comply with privacy regulations. Performance is moderate with no critical issues detected, and the site is mobile-optimized and accessible. Technical risks are minimal but could be reduced further by implementing security headers and improving transparency around security policies.
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.
