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

4 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

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
    • 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
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  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

  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 · 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.

Breach exposure

Leaked credentials and lookalike domains from OffSeq Breach. The counts are free; the detailed lists are paid add-ons.

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention ekt-energie.ch, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for ekt-energie.ch right now. New leaks arrive continuously, so monitoring on Breach alerts you if that changes.

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 in the energy sector with a focus on strategic electricity procurement and portfolio management services. Their business model revolves around providing tailored energy solutions to Swiss enterprises, emphasizing risk mitigation and ecological responsibility. Market positioning is strong within Switzerland, supported by partnerships such as with Thurgauer Naturstrom. The website content and structure indicate a medium-sized enterprise with professional branding and consistent messaging. Revenue streams likely derive from consulting and management fees related to electricity procurement and sustainability services. The absence of direct contact details on the homepage suggests a controlled communication approach, possibly via dedicated contact pages. The partnership ecosystem and certifications enhance credibility and market trust.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and implements cookie consent aligned with GDPR requirements, indicating a good baseline for security and privacy. However, no explicit security policy or incident response information is published, which could limit transparency in case of security incidents. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The use of Google Tag Manager introduces moderate user tracking, but privacy compliance appears adequate. Security headers were not explicitly detected, suggesting room for improvement. Overall, the security posture is solid but could benefit from enhanced transparency and additional technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page detailing security practices and frameworks.
  2. Add explicit incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file.
  4. Include data protection officer contact details to enhance GDPR transparency.
  5. Enhance HTTP security headers (e.g., Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options) to improve defense-in-depth.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a mature and widely used content management system, ensuring a stable and maintainable platform. The use of Google Tag Manager facilitates flexible analytics and marketing integrations. Performance is moderate with video content on the homepage, which may impact load times but enhances user engagement. The site is mobile optimized with good accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA attributes. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. No critical technical debt or vulnerabilities were identified in the HTML content. Opportunities exist to improve security headers and publish more comprehensive security documentation.
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.
