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 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. 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 company holds a solid market position as the official tourism entity for Graz, Austria, focusing on hospitality and tourism sectors. Its competitive advantage lies in its authoritative status and comprehensive service offerings including accommodation booking and city highlights. The target customer segment includes international and domestic tourists seeking travel information and services in Graz. The website reflects a medium-sized organization with consistent branding and professional content. Partnerships and related domains are not explicitly identified, but the use of Cookiebot and Google Tag Manager indicates integration with common marketing and compliance tools. Growth indicators are positive given the modern web presence and compliance adherence.

Security posture

The security maturity of the website is good, with HTTPS enforced and multiple security headers implemented. The use of Cookiebot ensures GDPR-compliant cookie management, and no sensitive data is exposed in the HTML content. However, the absence of a dedicated security policy page and incident response contact details suggests room for improvement in transparency and readiness. No vulnerabilities or outdated libraries were detected. The site does not publish a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file, which could enhance trust and security culture. Overall, the security posture supports business continuity and user trust effectively.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  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 to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Regularly review and update third-party libraries and scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance transparency by detailing data retention policies and user privacy rights more explicitly.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern tech stack including Bootstrap 5 and Pimcore CMS, ensuring responsive design and good accessibility. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts like Cookiebot and Google Tag Manager, optimizing user experience. SEO is well addressed with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with a clear navigation structure. Hosting appears stable and secure, likely based in Europe aligning with the business location. Technical risks are minimal, but continuous monitoring and updates are recommended to maintain security and performance standards.
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.
