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

Association du Scoutisme Vaudois (ASVd) is a well-established non-profit organization dedicated to promoting scouting activities for youth aged 5 to 16 in the Vaud region of Switzerland. It is part of the largest youth movement in Switzerland, serving thousands of scouts locally. The website provides comprehensive information about scouting, the association's structure, history, and facilities, targeting families and youth interested in scouting. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with common plugins such as Contact Form 7 and Jetpack, and uses modern JavaScript libraries like Leaflet for maps. The site is mobile-optimized and has good SEO practices but lacks visible privacy and cookie policies, which is a compliance gap. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS enforced, but security headers are missing and no vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is provided. Overall, the domain registration data aligns well with the organization's identity, supporting legitimacy and trustworthiness.

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 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

    • 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

ASVd holds a strong market position as the leading youth scouting association in the Vaud canton, leveraging a large membership base and community engagement. Its business model is non-profit and community-driven, focusing on youth development through scouting programs, training, and facility management. The organization maintains active social media channels to engage with its audience and partners with related entities such as pfadiheime.ch for cabin facilities. The website content and structure reflect a professional and consistent brand image, supporting its credibility and outreach efforts.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security posture with HTTPS enabled and no obvious exposure of sensitive data. However, the absence of security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. There is no public security policy or incident response contact information, which limits transparency and preparedness. The use of popular WordPress plugins requires ongoing maintenance to avoid vulnerabilities. No signs of malware or phishing were detected. The site would benefit from implementing security best practices and publishing relevant policies to enhance trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a clear and comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Implement a cookie consent mechanism to comply with privacy regulations.
  3. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Create and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Provide visible contact information for security incidents or abuse reports to improve incident response readiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform using a reputable theme (Spacious) and plugins including Contact Form 7, Jetpack, and Leaflet.js for interactive maps. The site loads moderate external resources, including social media icons and tracking pixels from Jetpack and Pinterest. The HTML is valid and includes meta tags for SEO and social sharing (Open Graph, Twitter cards). Performance is moderate with some optimization opportunities. Mobile responsiveness is good, and accessibility is basic but could be improved. The site lacks advanced technical security headers and explicit privacy compliance features, which are areas for modernization and risk reduction.
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.
