Ferienhaus Braunwald is a small hospitality business offering two holiday houses in the mountain village of Braunwald, Switzerland. The website targets families and groups seeking vacation accommodations in a scenic, car-free alpine environment. The business operates a niche model focusing on group and family stays with clear descriptions of their properties and local attractions. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern plugins such as Revolution Slider and Contact Form 7, and integrates Google Analytics and Tag Manager for visitor tracking. The site is mobile-optimized and presents a professional design with good navigation and relevant content. Security-wise, the site uses HTTPS and hCaptcha for form protection but lacks visible security headers and formal privacy or cookie policies, which are compliance gaps. The domain uses privacy protection for WHOIS data, which is common and justified for this business type. Overall, the website is functional, trustworthy, and safe for general audiences but would benefit from enhanced privacy compliance and security hardening.

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.

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.

Business context
Business profile
The company, Cevi Region Basel, operates in the hospitality sector providing holiday accommodation in Braunwald, Switzerland. Their market position is regional and niche, focusing on families and groups interested in mountain vacations. The business model is rental-based, with key services including group house rental and family holiday stays. The website supports their market presence with social media integration and clear service descriptions. There is no evidence of parent companies or subsidiaries. The business appears small in size with a focused target audience. The website content and branding are consistent, supporting a moderate level of trustworthiness. No direct revenue streams or partnerships beyond tourism links are evident from the website.
Security posture
The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security posture. HTTPS is enforced, and hCaptcha is used to protect forms from automated abuse. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces the overall security robustness. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are provided, which limits transparency in security management. The use of privacy protection in WHOIS is appropriate. There are no visible signs of vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. The site would benefit from implementing security best practices and formalizing privacy and cookie policies to improve compliance and user trust.
Recommendations
Implement and display a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent banner to comply with GDPR and enhance user trust.
Add security headers (Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to improve protection against common web attacks.
Regularly update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
Consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve transparency and incident response readiness.
Enhance accessibility features to meet WCAG standards and improve user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes
Notes
The website is built on WordPress 6.5.5 with a modern tech stack including jQuery 3.7.1, Revolution Slider, Contact Form 7, and TablePress. It uses Google Fonts, Google Analytics, and Google Tag Manager for tracking and styling. The site loads asynchronously scripts and uses hCaptcha for form security. Performance is moderate with responsive design and mobile optimization. SEO is basic with meta tags and canonical links but lacks structured data like JSON-LD or Open Graph tags. Hosting provider details are not evident from the HTML. The site uses standard CSS and JavaScript with no apparent technical debt or errors. Opportunities exist to improve SEO with structured data and enhance performance with caching and security headers.
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.
