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

Brogramming is a small, specialized web development business operated by Fabian Voegeli based in Zürich, Switzerland. The company focuses on delivering custom web development projects primarily for cultural heritage institutions, academia, art galleries, and architecture firms. Their portfolio demonstrates expertise in modern web technologies including Next.js, React, Craft CMS, WordPress, and Gatsby, reflecting a mature and technically competent digital infrastructure. The website showcases a broad network of partners and clients, reinforcing its niche market position. Technically, the website employs a modern tech stack with frameworks like React and Next.js, and integrates Google Analytics for user tracking. The site is mobile optimized with good SEO practices, though accessibility features are basic. Hosting and DNS are managed through Key-Systems GmbH and firestorm.ch DNS servers. Performance is moderate, with room for improvement in security configurations. From a security perspective, the site lacks visible security headers and DNSSEC is not enabled, which are areas for enhancement. The domain is secured with clientTransferProhibited status, and HTTPS is presumed but not explicitly confirmed in the data. Privacy and cookie policies are absent, indicating compliance gaps with GDPR and related regulations. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, limiting transparency in security management. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy with a solid business foundation and technical implementation. However, it would benefit from improved security practices and formalized privacy compliance to enhance user trust and regulatory adherence.

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

Brogramming operates as a boutique web development service provider with a clear focus on cultural, academic, and artistic sectors. Its competitive advantage lies in specialized knowledge of these domains and the ability to deliver custom digital solutions using modern frameworks. The business model is project-based service delivery, targeting institutions and professionals requiring bespoke web presence and digital project design. The company maintains a strong partnership ecosystem with design studios and digital agencies, enhancing its market reach and service quality. Growth indicators include a long-standing domain registration since 2008 and a diverse portfolio of recent projects. Revenue streams are likely derived from commissioned web development and design services. The company’s operations are small-scale but well-networked within its niche market.

Security posture

The security posture of the website is moderate but with notable gaps. The domain is protected against unauthorized transfers, which is a positive indicator. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security reduces the overall security robustness. The lack of privacy and cookie policies, as well as no visible incident response contacts, suggests limited compliance with GDPR and security best practices. Google Analytics is used without a visible consent mechanism, potentially exposing the business to privacy compliance risks. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. The security culture appears informal, with room for formalizing policies and controls.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to enhance domain name system security and prevent DNS spoofing.
  2. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Develop and publish privacy and cookie policies with GDPR compliance measures and implement a cookie consent mechanism.
  4. Add clear incident response and security contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Conduct a security audit to identify and remediate any potential vulnerabilities and improve overall security posture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern and diverse technology stack including React, Next.js, Craft CMS, WordPress, and Gatsby, indicating a high level of technical maturity. The integration of FastAPI for backend services suggests a contemporary approach to API development. Performance is moderate, with good mobile optimization and SEO practices. However, accessibility features are basic and could be improved to meet wider standards. Hosting and DNS are managed by reputable providers, but the lack of DNSSEC and security headers indicates technical debt in security configuration. The site uses Google Fonts and Google Analytics, which are standard but require privacy compliance considerations. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business needs but has opportunities for modernization and security enhancement.
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.
