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

Come2Upper Austria is a government-supported service center operated by Business Upper Austria - OÖ Wirtschaftsagentur GmbH, aimed at assisting international companies and foreign employees relocating to Upper Austria. The website provides comprehensive resources on career, study, living, and relocation services, targeting internationals and companies staffing internationally. The platform is well-structured, professionally designed, and offers clear navigation and community engagement through events and newsletters. Technically, the site is built on TYPO3 CMS, uses Matomo for analytics, and implements a detailed cookie consent mechanism, reflecting a mature digital infrastructure. Security posture is good with HTTPS enforced and email obfuscation, though lacks explicit security headers and incident response information. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain is a notable anomaly that requires verification to ensure domain legitimacy. Overall, the website is trustworthy, professional, and serves its target audience effectively.

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

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

  2. Network security

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

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

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

The business operates as a regional government initiative supporting international staffing and relocation in Upper Austria. It leverages partnerships such as welcome2upperaustria.com for extended services. The business model focuses on providing relocation assistance, career guidance, and integration support, positioning itself as a key regional facilitator for international talent attraction. The presence of events, testimonials, and a career platform indicates active community engagement and service diversification. The company benefits from government backing, enhancing credibility and market position. Growth potential lies in expanding digital services and strengthening security and compliance frameworks.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with HTTPS and cookie consent compliance. Email addresses are protected via JavaScript encryption to reduce spam risk. However, the lack of visible security headers (e.g., CSP, X-Frame-Options) and absence of a published security policy or incident response contact reduces overall security maturity. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The missing WHOIS data for the domain is a concern that could impact trust and should be investigated. GDPR compliance is well addressed through privacy and cookie policies. Incident response readiness appears limited due to lack of explicit contact channels.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration information to ensure domain legitimacy and trustworthiness.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerabilities are introduced.
  5. Enhance monitoring and logging capabilities to detect and respond to security incidents promptly.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a robust and widely used content management system, indicating a stable and scalable platform. It uses Matomo analytics for privacy-friendly user tracking and Font Awesome for iconography. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility features such as skip links. Performance is moderate, with external CSS and JS loaded from reputable CDNs and internal compressed assets. Cookie consent is managed by DataReporter, providing granular user control. No major technical debt or deprecated technologies were detected. Opportunities exist to improve security headers and incident response mechanisms to align with best practices.
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.
