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

ARTISET Zürich is a regional association representing service providers for people with support needs in the Canton of Zurich, Switzerland. The organization acts as a key stakeholder in health and social policy, advocating for its members and promoting a diverse service offering. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand presence, targeting healthcare and social service providers within the Zurich region. Key services include advocacy, networking, knowledge sharing, event organization, and quality certification for long-term care facilities. Technically, the website is built on Silverstripe CMS 4.11, utilizing modern web technologies such as jQuery, Photoswipe, and FontAwesome. It employs Google Analytics with IP anonymization and event tracking, and implements a cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and SEO-friendly, with a moderate performance profile. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS with an excellent SSL configuration and includes basic security headers. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. However, the site lacks explicit published security policies, incident response contacts, and a security.txt file, which could enhance transparency and preparedness. Overall, ARTISET Zürich's website demonstrates a solid digital presence with good security and privacy practices appropriate for a non-profit healthcare association. Strategic improvements in security policy transparency and incident response readiness are recommended to further strengthen 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

7 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: PostgreSQL

      Port 5432 (PostgreSQL) is publicly accessible - PostgreSQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to PostgreSQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  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 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';…

  3. 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

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 · found on this site
  • 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

ARTISET Zürich occupies an important niche as a healthcare and social services association in the Zurich canton, providing advocacy and support to service providers for people with support needs. Its business model centers on membership services, networking, knowledge dissemination, and quality assurance. The organization leverages events and newsletters to engage members and stakeholders. The website's content and structure indicate a focus on professional and institutional audiences rather than consumers. The presence of a quality certification program and political monitoring suggests a mature organization with strategic influence. Partnerships with web agencies and social media presence on LinkedIn support its outreach and operational capabilities.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, IP anonymization in analytics, and a cookie consent mechanism. Security headers are partially implemented, but could be enhanced with additional headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Content-Type-Options. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. The absence of a published security policy, incident response information, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms represents a gap in transparency and preparedness. Overall, the site is secure for its purpose but would benefit from formalizing and publishing security governance documents.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Implement and publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosures.
  3. Add incident response contact information, such as a security@ or abuse@ email address.
  4. Enhance HTTP security headers by adding Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and Referrer-Policy.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate supply chain risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Silverstripe CMS 4.11, a modern PHP-based content management system, supported by jQuery 3.3.1 and Photoswipe for image galleries. FontAwesome 6 Pro is used for icons. Google Analytics 4 and Universal Analytics are deployed with event tracking and IP anonymization. The site uses responsive design techniques and accessibility features such as ARIA labels and keyboard navigation support. Performance is moderate, with some external dependencies on Google Fonts and ReadSpeaker services. The site is hosted on an unknown provider but uses HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate. The technical stack is modern and well-maintained, though opportunities exist to optimize loading speed and security headers.
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.
