Technically, the website is built on TYPO3 CMS with modern web technologies including Bootstrap, jQuery, and FontAwesome.

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

7 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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 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
  • 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 FDP.Die Liberalen Zug website reflects a small-sized, non-profit political organization focused on the government sector within Switzerland. Its market position is regional with a clear target audience of local voters and party members. The business model centers on information dissemination and community engagement rather than commercial revenue. The site leverages partnerships with the national FDP party and maintains a consistent branding strategy. Growth indicators include active social media presence and regular event updates. The party's ecosystem includes multiple local sections and specialized groups, enhancing its operational reach and influence within the canton.

Security posture

The website exhibits a moderate to good security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented. No critical security headers were detected, which is a gap that should be addressed to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. The site does not expose sensitive information and uses reputable third-party libraries. Compliance with GDPR is evident through privacy and cookie policies. However, the lack of a published security policy or incident response contact limits transparency and preparedness. Overall, the security posture is adequate for the site's purpose but could benefit from enhanced security controls and documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to strengthen defense against common attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and provide dedicated incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and scripts to prevent vulnerabilities from outdated components.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve usability for all users, including those with disabilities.
  5. Continue monitoring privacy compliance and update cookie consent mechanisms as regulations evolve.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a robust and widely used content management system, indicating a stable technical foundation. It uses modern front-end technologies including Bootstrap for responsive design and jQuery for interactivity. External integrations include social media SDKs and analytics tools like Google Analytics and Plausible. Performance is moderate with room for optimization, particularly in script loading and caching strategies. The site is mobile-optimized and SEO-friendly with appropriate meta tags and structured navigation. Technical risks are minimal but could be reduced further by implementing security headers and improving accessibility compliance.
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.
