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

FERI Schweiz is a well-established Swiss financial services company specializing in investment management and advisory services, particularly focused on Swiss securities and asset management solutions for private and institutional investors outside the Eurozone. The company leverages the expertise of the FERI Gruppe to provide tailored investment solutions, positioning itself as a trusted player in the Swiss finance sector. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image, targeting a sophisticated investor audience. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including JavaScript libraries like Flickity for UI components, Cookiebot for GDPR-compliant cookie consent management, and integrates analytics tools such as Google Analytics and Microsoft Application Insights. Hosting appears to be on Microsoft Azure, indicating a robust infrastructure. The site is mobile-optimized with good SEO and accessibility basics, though some accessibility enhancements could be made. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS with strong SSL configuration and implements multiple security headers to protect against common web vulnerabilities. Cookie consent is actively managed, and no critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. However, the absence of a dedicated security policy or incident response contact is a gap that could be addressed to improve transparency and readiness. Overall, the website demonstrates a strong security posture, good privacy compliance, and credible business representation. Strategic recommendations include publishing a formal security policy, providing incident response contacts, and enhancing accessibility features to further strengthen trust and compliance.

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

2 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
  2. 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.

Business context

Business profile

FERI Schweiz operates in the finance sector with a focus on asset management and investment advisory services. Its market positioning is that of a specialized Swiss investment group with a strong reputation and expertise in Swiss securities. The business model centers on providing tailored investment solutions to private and institutional investors, particularly those outside the Eurozone. Revenue streams likely include asset management fees and advisory services. The company maintains a partnership ecosystem with related domains supporting client portals and authentication services. Growth indicators include a professional digital presence and compliance with GDPR through Cookiebot. Strategic observations suggest a focus on maintaining trust and regulatory compliance in a competitive financial market.

Security posture

The security maturity level of the website is good, with HTTPS enforced and multiple security headers implemented. The use of Cookiebot ensures GDPR-compliant cookie management, and analytics tools are integrated with user consent. No exposed credentials or sensitive data were found, and no vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided content. Compliance gaps include the lack of a published security policy and incident response contact information, which are important for transparency and readiness. Data protection practices are aligned with GDPR, but incident response readiness could be improved. The security culture appears professional but could benefit from enhanced communication of security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and controls.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file.
  4. Enhance website accessibility to meet higher standards for users with disabilities.
  5. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and libraries for security vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern JavaScript technologies and libraries, including Flickity for UI components and Cookiebot for consent management. It integrates Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Application Insights for analytics and telemetry. Hosting appears to be on Microsoft Azure, providing a reliable and scalable infrastructure. Performance is moderate with room for optimization. The site is mobile-optimized and includes SEO best practices such as meta tags and Open Graph data. Technical risks are minimal, but continuous monitoring of third-party dependencies is recommended to mitigate potential vulnerabilities. Opportunities exist to improve accessibility and to formalize security and privacy 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.
