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

The Berner Chiropraktoren Gesellschaft website serves as the online presence for a regional chiropractic professional society in Switzerland. It provides information about the organization's mission, member services, and resources for patients and healthcare professionals. The site is primarily in German and targets local chiropractors, patients, and medical professionals. The business model is non-profit and focused on professional development and advocacy within the chiropractic healthcare sector. Technically, the website is built on the Jimdo CMS platform, utilizing standard Jimdo hosting and resources. It includes basic SEO and accessibility features, though mobile optimization is only basic. The site employs Facebook Pixel for analytics and tracking purposes. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and cookie consent mechanisms in place, but lacks advanced security headers and explicit security policies. Privacy compliance is basic with a privacy and cookie policy present but no terms of service or incident response information. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy but could benefit from enhanced security and compliance features.

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

5 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 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

  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 Berner Chiropraktoren Gesellschaft holds a niche position as a regional professional association affiliated with national and European chiropractic bodies. Its competitive advantage lies in its established network and focus on quality assurance, professional education, and advocacy for chiropractors in the Bern region. Revenue streams are likely membership fees and educational events, though not explicitly stated. The target customer segments include chiropractors, patients seeking chiropractic care, and medical professionals. Growth indicators are not directly visible but the affiliation with larger bodies suggests stable operations. The partnership ecosystem includes the Schweizerische Chiropraktoren Gesellschaft and the European Chiropractic Union. Strategic observations include the need to enhance digital presence and security posture to maintain trust and compliance in the healthcare sector.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and a cookie consent mechanism implemented. However, it lacks several recommended security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options, which could mitigate common web vulnerabilities. No explicit security or incident response policies are published, indicating a gap in formal security governance. The use of Facebook Pixel introduces moderate user tracking, which should be transparently managed under GDPR. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. The absence of terms of service and vulnerability disclosure policies suggests limited readiness for incident handling and responsible disclosure. Overall, the security posture is functional but could be significantly improved with standard best practices and policy transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common attacks.
  2. Publish clear security and incident response policies to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Enhance mobile optimization and accessibility to improve user experience across devices.
  4. Add terms of service and vulnerability disclosure policies to comply with best practices and regulatory expectations.
  5. Review and document data retention policies and GDPR compliance measures related to analytics and tracking.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Jimdo Creator CMS platform, leveraging Jimdo's hosting and static asset delivery networks. It uses jQuery and Facebook Pixel for client-side scripting and analytics. The site includes standard meta tags for SEO and social media sharing (Open Graph and Twitter cards). Performance is moderate with multiple external resources loaded from Jimdo's CDN and Facebook domains. The site is not fully responsive but has basic mobile optimization. Accessibility features are minimal but present. There is no evidence of modern JavaScript frameworks or advanced backend technologies. The technical debt appears low due to the use of a managed CMS but limits customization and advanced security controls. Opportunities exist to modernize the tech stack, improve performance, and enhance security configurations.
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.
