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

Graz Tourismus operates as the official tourism board for the city of Graz, Austria, providing comprehensive information and booking services for accommodation, sightseeing, and events. The website targets tourists and visitors interested in exploring Graz, positioning itself as a trusted source for travel planning in the region. The business model focuses on tourism promotion and visitor engagement, leveraging digital channels to enhance the city's attractiveness. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including Bootstrap 5 for responsive design, Google Tag Manager for analytics, and Cookiebot for GDPR-compliant cookie management. The presence of Pimcore personalization scripts suggests a mature digital infrastructure aimed at delivering tailored user experiences. The site demonstrates good performance, mobile optimization, and accessibility standards. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS with strong SSL configuration and implements key security headers. Cookie consent mechanisms are in place, and privacy policies are comprehensive and GDPR compliant. However, there is no explicit security policy or incident response contact published, which could be improved to enhance transparency and readiness. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and well-aligned with its business purpose. The risk profile is low, with no detected vulnerabilities or suspicious activities. Strategic recommendations include publishing a dedicated security policy, adding incident response contacts, and considering a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosures.

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

Graz Tourismus holds a strong market position as the official tourism entity for Graz, Austria, focusing on promoting the city as a travel destination. Its competitive advantage lies in authoritative content, official endorsements, and comprehensive service offerings including accommodation and event information. Revenue streams likely include partnerships with local businesses and tourism-related services. The target customer segments are leisure travelers, cultural tourists, and event attendees. The organization benefits from a clear partnership ecosystem with local stakeholders and maintains a consistent brand presence. Growth indicators include digital personalization and multi-language support, enhancing international reach.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, robust SSL configuration, and implementation of essential security headers. Privacy compliance is strong, supported by Cookiebot consent management and detailed privacy policies. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. However, the absence of a public security policy and incident response contacts represents a compliance gap. The site lacks a vulnerability disclosure mechanism such as a security.txt file, which is recommended for transparency. Overall, the security culture appears proactive but could benefit from enhanced communication of security practices.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Provide explicit incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosures.
  4. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and libraries for security vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance transparency by publishing data retention policies and cookie usage details.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern technology stack including Bootstrap 5 for responsive UI, Google Tag Manager for analytics, and Cookiebot for GDPR-compliant cookie management. The use of Pimcore personalization scripts indicates a sophisticated CMS and digital experience platform. Performance is moderate with room for optimization, but mobile responsiveness and accessibility are excellent. The site uses canonical and hreflang tags for SEO and multi-language support. Technical risks are minimal, with no outdated or vulnerable libraries detected. Opportunities exist to improve hosting transparency and implement advanced performance optimizations.
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.
