L’école à la ferme (EàF) is a Swiss educational initiative focused on providing experiential learning opportunities for students at farms. The website presents a niche educational service aimed at schools and educators interested in practical farm-based learning. The business operates primarily in the education sector within Switzerland and appears to be a small-sized organization. Technically, the website is built on WordPress, utilizing standard web technologies such as Google Fonts and Flickity for UI components. The site is mobile-optimized and offers a good user experience with clear navigation and relevant content. Security-wise, the site uses HTTPS but lacks visible security headers and formal privacy or cookie policies, indicating room for improvement in compliance and security posture. No blocking or WAF challenges were detected, allowing full content access. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy but would benefit from enhanced privacy compliance and security best practices.

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.
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
Missing Strict-Transport-Security header
Forces HTTPS connections
What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

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.

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

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, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Business context
Business profile
The organization targets educational institutions and students, offering farm-based learning programs that emphasize active and practical experiences. The business model revolves around educational services rather than commercial sales. The website's market position is specialized within the Swiss education sector, focusing on experiential learning. There is no evidence of extensive partnerships or subsidiaries. The content quality and branding are consistent, supporting a credible presence. However, the absence of direct contact emails or phone numbers may limit immediate engagement. The lack of privacy and cookie policies suggests compliance gaps that could affect trust and regulatory adherence.
Security posture
The website benefits from HTTPS encryption, ensuring secure data transmission. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection reduces its defense against common web attacks. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are provided, which limits transparency and preparedness. The use of WordPress and common plugins necessitates regular updates and monitoring to mitigate risks. The lack of privacy and cookie policies also indicates potential GDPR compliance issues. Overall, the security posture is moderate but requires enhancements to meet best practices and regulatory standards.
Recommendations
Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to improve GDPR compliance.
Add essential security headers to enhance protection against common web vulnerabilities.
Establish and disclose an incident response contact channel for security issues.
Provide direct contact information such as official emails and phone numbers to improve user trust and engagement.
Regularly audit and update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to reduce vulnerability risks.

Technical notes
Notes
The website is built on WordPress, leveraging Google Fonts and Flickity for UI elements. It uses Contact Form 7 for user inquiries. The site is responsive and optimized for mobile devices, with good SEO meta tags and structured content. Performance is moderate, with no major issues detected in the provided HTML. However, the absence of advanced security headers and privacy compliance features indicates technical debt in security and regulatory adherence. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. The site would benefit from performance optimization and enhanced accessibility features.
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.
