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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  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.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

The organization holds a strong market position as the official promoter of Swiss cheese, leveraging events like the World Cheese Awards and multiple language regional sites. The business model is non-profit focused on marketing and information dissemination. The target audience includes consumers, retailers, and food enthusiasts. The website integrates social media channels and partners with Switzerland Cheese Marketing, indicating a robust partnership ecosystem. Growth indicators include event hosting and multilingual content expansion.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS and consent management. However, the absence of explicit privacy and terms of service pages, lack of security headers, and no visible vulnerability disclosure policy indicate areas for improvement. Incident response readiness and data protection officer contact information are not found, which could be a compliance gap. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages accessible from the main navigation or footer.
  2. Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, and X-Frame-Options.
  3. Establish and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to enhance transparency and security posture.
  4. Provide clear contact information for data protection officer or security incident response contacts.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all users.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses TYPO3 CMS, a robust open-source content management system, combined with modern JavaScript libraries and third-party services like Vimeo for video content and Usercentrics for cookie consent. Google Tag Manager and Sentry are used for analytics and error monitoring respectively. The site is mobile optimized and SEO friendly with proper meta tags and alternate language links. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in loading times and accessibility compliance. Hosting provider details are not explicitly found.
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.
