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

The Asset Management Association Switzerland website serves as the official online presence of the representative industry organization for the Swiss asset management sector. It provides information about the industry, regulatory topics, events, and self-regulation guidelines. The site targets professionals and stakeholders within the Swiss financial services industry, emphasizing asset management. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies such as Bootstrap, Font Awesome, Google Fonts, and integrates Google Analytics and Tag Manager for analytics and tracking. The site is mobile-optimized with a clear navigation structure and professional design, reflecting a medium-sized organization's digital maturity. Security-wise, the website enforces HTTPS and uses Google reCAPTCHA for bot protection, but lacks some explicit security headers and formal privacy and cookie policies, which are areas for improvement. Overall, the domain registration data aligns well with the website's claims, indicating a legitimate and trustworthy entity. The absence of contact emails and phone numbers in the provided content limits direct communication channels. Strategic recommendations include publishing comprehensive privacy and cookie policies, enhancing security headers, and providing clear contact and incident response information to improve trust and 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

3 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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  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 Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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.

Business context

Business profile

The Asset Management Association Switzerland holds a strong market position as the representative body for the Swiss asset management industry. Its business model focuses on advocacy, industry representation, and providing regulatory and market information to its members and stakeholders. Key services include organizing industry events, publishing reports and studies, and promoting sustainable finance initiatives. The organization targets financial professionals, asset managers, and institutional investors within Switzerland. The website content and structure suggest a medium-sized entity with consistent branding and professional communication. The use of Google Analytics and Tag Manager indicates an interest in understanding visitor behavior and improving engagement. No suspicious or unrelated domains are linked, reinforcing a focused partnership ecosystem. The lack of explicit contact details and privacy policies may impact user trust and regulatory compliance.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security posture with HTTPS enforced and integration of Google reCAPTCHA to mitigate automated abuse. Security headers such as Referrer-Policy and Robots are present, but important headers like X-Content-Type-Options and X-Frame-Options are not explicitly detected, which could expose the site to certain risks. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were identified in the provided content. The absence of a published security policy, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates gaps in security governance and transparency. Compliance with GDPR is implied but not explicitly documented, and cookie consent mechanisms are missing. Enhancing these areas would strengthen the overall security and compliance posture.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent banner to ensure GDPR compliance and user transparency.
  2. Implement additional security headers such as X-Content-Type-Options and X-Frame-Options to improve protection against common web attacks.
  3. Provide clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for general inquiries and security incident reporting.
  4. Establish and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve usability for all users and comply with accessibility standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern and widely adopted technology stack including Bootstrap for responsive design, Font Awesome for icons, and Google Fonts for typography. Analytics and tracking are handled via Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager, with IP anonymization enabled. The site loads external resources from trusted domains such as Google and the site's own domain. Performance appears moderate with no explicit indicators of slow loading, and mobile optimization is good. The HTML structure is valid and SEO meta tags are properly set, including Open Graph and Twitter Card metadata for social sharing. However, no CMS or hosting provider information was detected. The site could benefit from enhanced accessibility and additional security headers to reduce technical risks. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and functional web presence for the organization.
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.
