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. 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

    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

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

The company operates as a small healthcare provider specializing in urology, serving patients primarily in the Thurgau canton of Switzerland. Their business model focuses on direct patient care through multiple practice locations and specialized medical expertise. The website content and structure indicate a focus on patient education and service transparency, with clear contact channels and professional doctor profiles. The partnership with goldgelb.ch for website development suggests a collaboration with local digital service providers. There is no indication of e-commerce or ancillary revenue streams. The market position is strong locally due to the breadth of operative experience and comprehensive service offerings. Growth indicators include recent additions of new partners and updated content. The company maintains a professional online presence but could enhance digital maturity by implementing advanced privacy and security features.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with HTTPS enabled and no exposed sensitive data in the HTML source. The use of reputable WordPress plugins and themes reduces risk, though the absence of explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a gap. There is no public security policy or incident response contact, which limits transparency and preparedness for security incidents. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file is present, which is recommended for healthcare providers handling sensitive information. The contact forms appear standard without visible anti-spam or advanced security controls. Overall, the security posture is adequate but could be improved to meet higher compliance standards such as ISO 27001 or NIST frameworks.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner and mechanism to comply fully with GDPR and inform users about cookie usage.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Create and host a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  5. Regularly audit and update WordPress plugins and themes to mitigate risks from outdated software.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS version 6.8.3, utilizing popular plugins such as Yoast SEO for search engine optimization, WPBakery Page Builder for content layout, Slider Revolution for interactive sliders, and Contact Form 7 for user contact forms. The tech stack includes jQuery and various UI components for enhanced user experience. The site loads moderate resources and appears optimized for mobile devices with responsive design. Accessibility features are basic but present. SEO is well supported with meta tags, Open Graph data, and JSON-LD structured data describing the organization and webpage. Hosting provider details are not explicitly found in the HTML content. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in caching and resource optimization. The site uses custom styling and scripts from the Bridge theme and child theme. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern and suitable for a professional healthcare website.
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.
