Priority findings

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

  2. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • GDPR outside view: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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 website targets a broad audience including tourists, families, and cultural enthusiasts interested in the Freiamt region. It leverages a content-rich approach with event calendars, multimedia content, and detailed guides. The presence of a newsletter and social media integration indicates active engagement strategies. The use of WordPress and Divi theme suggests a cost-effective, scalable platform suitable for small to medium-sized regional organizations. The lack of explicit commercial transactions or e-commerce points to an informational and promotional business model rather than direct sales.

Security posture

The site demonstrates a good security posture with HTTPS enforced, use of Google reCAPTCHA on forms, and a cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR. However, it lacks explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and a security.txt file, which are recommended best practices. HTTP security headers are not explicitly detected, suggesting room for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the analysis. Overall, the security measures are adequate for the site's purpose but could be enhanced to improve trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  2. Implement a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosures.
  3. Enhance HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Regularly update and audit WordPress plugins and themes to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Improve accessibility features to meet higher standards and broaden audience reach.

It uses jQuery and embeds multimedia content via YouTube. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and includes AJAX search functionality. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in loading speed and accessibility. Hosting provider details are not explicit, but the site uses standard web technologies and external resources from reputable domains. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern and suitable for the site's scope.
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.
