With over 130 years of history and more than 650,000 stairlifts installed worldwide, Handicare holds a strong market position supported by ISO certifications and a consistent brand presence.

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

4 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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 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. 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

Handicare Treppenlifte Schweiz operates in the healthcare sector, focusing on mobility solutions for the elderly and disabled. Its business model centers on manufacturing customized stairlifts and distributing them through a certified partner network, ensuring localized service and support. The company benefits from a strong brand legacy and international presence, with multiple localized websites and language options. Revenue streams likely include product sales, installation fees, maintenance contracts, and warranty services. The partnership ecosystem includes the parent Handicare Group and regional distributors. Growth indicators include extensive installed base and ongoing product innovation. The company maintains a professional online presence with clear contact channels and trust certifications, positioning it competitively in the Swiss and broader European markets.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and secure form handling. Cookie consent is managed effectively, aligning with GDPR requirements. The use of multiple analytics and tracking tools is transparent and user-consent based. However, the absence of a dedicated security policy page and incident response contact information represents a compliance gap. No security headers were explicitly detected in the provided data, suggesting room for enhancement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found. Overall, the security maturity is good but could benefit from formalized policies and improved header configurations to mitigate advanced threats and improve security culture.

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 configure security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Conduct regular audits of third-party scripts and dependencies to identify and mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance website accessibility features to meet WCAG standards and improve user inclusivity.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a custom CMS platform (Statichs) and uses modern JavaScript libraries including jQuery and Swiper.js for UI components. It integrates multiple analytics and tracking services such as Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity, Hotjar, and ClickCease for fraud prevention. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and includes structured data (JSON-LD) for SEO enhancement. Performance is moderate, with room for optimization in loading speed. The technical infrastructure supports a professional user experience but could benefit from improved accessibility and security header implementations. No major technical debt or outdated technologies were detected.
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.
