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

GLARNAIR Flugdienstleistungen is a Swiss-based aviation company established in 2009, offering flight school services, charter and taxi flights, and customized sightseeing flights with airplanes and helicopters. The company targets individuals aspiring to become pilots as well as customers seeking private charter or scenic flights. The website is professionally designed using WordPress with the Avada theme and integrates SEO best practices via Yoast SEO. It includes structured data for enhanced search engine understanding and uses Google Analytics for visitor tracking. Contact information is clearly presented, enhancing business credibility. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including HTTPS, jQuery, and SEO plugins, ensuring moderate performance and good mobile optimization. However, some security best practices such as security headers and cookie consent mechanisms are missing, which could be improved to enhance compliance and security posture. No forms collecting personal data are present on the homepage, reducing immediate privacy risks. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and a honeypot anti-spam plugin, but lacks explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms. WHOIS data confirms the legitimacy of the domain and its alignment with the business claims, indicating a trustworthy entity. Overall, the website is safe, professional, and credible but could benefit from enhanced privacy and security features. Strategic recommendations include implementing cookie consent for GDPR compliance, adding security headers, publishing a security policy and incident response contacts, and considering a vulnerability disclosure policy to improve transparency and trust.

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

5 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 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

    • 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

  3. 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

  • 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

GLARNAIR operates in the transportation sector, specifically aviation services, with a focus on flight training and charter flights. The company has a clear niche in the Swiss market, targeting aspiring pilots and private customers seeking personalized flight experiences. Its business model combines education (flight school) with service provision (charter and sightseeing flights). The website content and structure reflect a small but established business with steady growth since 2009. The partnership with diversified.ch for design indicates professional marketing support. The absence of social media links suggests a focus on direct customer engagement rather than broad digital marketing. The company’s growth potential lies in expanding flight training and charter services, possibly leveraging digital marketing and enhanced online presence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and anti-spam measures in place. However, the absence of security headers, cookie consent, and explicit security policies indicates gaps in compliance and best practices. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The lack of incident response contact information and vulnerability disclosure reduces readiness for security incidents. GDPR compliance is partial due to missing cookie consent and data protection officer information. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small business but requires improvements to meet higher compliance and security standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a cookie consent banner/mechanism to comply with GDPR requirements.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  4. Consider creating a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Enhance privacy compliance by appointing or disclosing a Data Protection Officer and clarifying data retention policies.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using the Avada theme and Yoast SEO plugin, indicating a modern and widely supported technology stack. It uses jQuery and Google Analytics for functionality and tracking. The site is served over HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate, ensuring secure data transmission. Performance is moderate with responsive design and mobile optimization. However, the absence of advanced security headers and cookie consent mechanisms suggests some technical debt in security implementation. The site does not expose sensitive data or use vulnerable libraries in the visible HTML. Opportunities exist to modernize security configurations and enhance privacy features to align with best practices.
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.
