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

Dornbirn Tourismus & Stadtmarketing GmbH operates as the official tourism and city marketing organization for Dornbirn, Austria. The website serves as a comprehensive portal for visitors and locals alike, providing information on local events, accommodations, dining, shopping, and cultural highlights. The organization positions itself as a key regional player in promoting Dornbirn as a travel destination, leveraging partnerships with local government and tourism entities. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including Google Tag Manager and CookieHub for analytics and cookie consent management. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and uses HTTPS to secure user interactions. However, some security best practices such as security headers are not visibly implemented, and no explicit security or incident response policies are published. From a security perspective, the site demonstrates a solid baseline with encrypted connections and GDPR-compliant cookie consent. The absence of WHOIS registrant data is due to privacy protection, which is justified for this type of organization. No critical vulnerabilities or suspicious patterns were detected. Overall, the site is trustworthy and professionally maintained. Strategically, the organization should enhance its security posture by implementing recommended HTTP security headers, publishing incident response and vulnerability disclosure policies, and regularly auditing third-party scripts. These steps will strengthen user trust and compliance with evolving security standards.

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 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
  4. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Domain Expires Soon

      Domain expires in 2 days

      What to do: Renew domain registration before expiration

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

Business profile

Dornbirn Tourismus & Stadtmarketing GmbH operates in the hospitality and government sectors, focusing on tourism promotion and city marketing. Its business model revolves around providing comprehensive visitor information, event promotion, and local business support. The organization benefits from strong partnerships with the city of Dornbirn and regional tourism bodies, enhancing its market position. Revenue streams likely include municipal funding, event sponsorships, and promotional activities. The target audience spans tourists, local residents, and businesses. Growth indicators include active event marketing and digital engagement via social media and newsletters. The partnership ecosystem is robust, linking to regional tourism and service providers, which supports a collaborative approach to destination marketing.

Security posture

The website exhibits a moderate to strong security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced, and cookie consent mechanisms comply with GDPR requirements. However, the absence of security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HSTS, and X-Frame-Options represents a gap in defense-in-depth strategies. No incident response or security policy documentation is publicly available, which limits transparency and preparedness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The use of third-party analytics and marketing scripts introduces potential risk vectors that require ongoing monitoring. Overall, the security posture is adequate for the business type but can be improved with additional controls and policy disclosures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear incident response policy and provide dedicated security contact channels to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Establish and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate risks from external dependencies.
  5. Enhance user trust by maintaining comprehensive privacy and cookie policies and ensuring all contact information is up to date and easily accessible.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern front-end technologies including JavaScript frameworks and libraries such as Slick Slider and Modernizr. It integrates Google Tag Manager and CookieHub for analytics and cookie management, indicating a mature approach to user tracking and privacy compliance. The site is responsive and optimized for mobile devices, with good accessibility features such as skip navigation links. Performance is moderate, with some images showing lazy loading but occasional errors in lazy loading status. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting provider details are not discernible from the HTML content. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and user-friendly experience but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and performance optimizations.
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.
