EnergieSchweiz is an official Swiss federal energy program managed by the Bundesamt für Energie (Swiss Federal Office of Energy). It supports voluntary measures to implement Swiss energy policy, targeting the Swiss population, businesses, and public institutions. The website is professionally designed using modern static site generation technology (Gatsby) and includes multilingual support for German, French, and Italian audiences. The technical infrastructure is modern and performant, with good mobile optimization and SEO practices. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced and no visible vulnerabilities, though security headers and formal security policies are absent. Privacy compliance is weak due to missing privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the site is trustworthy and credible as a government-affiliated platform but would benefit from enhanced privacy and security disclosures.

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.

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
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.

Leaked records that mention energieschweiz.ch, from OffSeq Breach.
No leaked records found
Breach holds no records for energieschweiz.ch right now. New leaks arrive continuously, so monitoring on Breach alerts you if that changes.
Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Business context
Business profile
The website positions EnergieSchweiz as a key government program in the energy sector, focusing on sustainability and energy policy implementation in Switzerland. Its business model is non-commercial, serving as a support and informational platform. The presence of alternate language domains indicates a comprehensive approach to reach all Swiss linguistic regions. The lack of commercial advertising or tracking suggests a focus on public service rather than revenue generation. The program's affiliation with the Swiss Federal Office of Energy provides strong legitimacy and market positioning within the governmental and energy sectors.
Security posture
The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enabled and no exposed sensitive data. However, it lacks important security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, which could improve protection against common web attacks. There is no visible security policy or incident response information, which limits transparency and preparedness communication. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file is present, reducing avenues for responsible vulnerability reporting. Overall, the security posture is good but could be improved with formal policies and enhanced HTTP headers.
Recommendations
Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to improve GDPR compliance.
Add security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance web security.
Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to increase transparency and readiness.
Create and host a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure page to facilitate responsible vulnerability reporting.
Enhance accessibility features to improve usability for all users, including those with disabilities.

Technical notes
Notes
The website is built using Gatsby 5.11.0, a modern React-based static site generator, ensuring good performance and SEO. It uses Video.js for media playback and Uppy for file uploads, indicating interactive media capabilities. The site is mobile optimized and uses responsive design. No CMS or dynamic backend is detected, reducing attack surface but limiting dynamic content management. Hosting provider details are not explicitly found. Performance is moderate with good SEO meta tags and Open Graph integration. Accessibility is basic and could be improved. No analytics or tracking scripts were detected, indicating minimal user tracking.
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.
