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

The website 'Hitze und Gesundheit' is an official government health information portal managed by the Amt für Gesundheit of Liechtenstein. It focuses on educating the public about heat-related health risks, protective measures, and vulnerable groups. The site is well-positioned as a trusted source for health and climate-related information in the region, targeting the general population with clear, scientifically backed content. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with a modern theme and uses standard web technologies such as jQuery and Typekit fonts. It is mobile-optimized and provides a good user experience with clear navigation and relevant content. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS and obfuscates emails to reduce spam, but lacks some security headers and a formal vulnerability disclosure mechanism. Privacy compliance is partially met with a privacy policy present, but no cookie consent mechanism is detected, which could be improved. Overall, the site is credible, secure, and professionally maintained, serving its public health mission effectively.

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

8 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Network security

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

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  2. 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 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';…

  3. 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

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 · found on this site
  • 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.

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention hitze.li, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for hitze.li right now. New leaks arrive continuously, so monitoring on Breach alerts you if that changes.

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 operates as a government public health platform, providing authoritative information on heat as a health risk. Its market position is strong within the Liechtenstein region as an official source. The business model is informational and non-commercial, focusing on public service. The site leverages partnerships with related health platforms (bewegt.li and alleswurscht.li) and is backed by the Liechtenstein government. The content is tailored to residents and German-speaking audiences concerned about climate and health. Growth potential lies in expanding digital outreach and integrating more interactive tools. The partnership ecosystem is government-centric, emphasizing trust and reliability.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and email obfuscation to protect contact information. However, it lacks several recommended security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, which could enhance protection against common web attacks. There is no visible incident response or vulnerability disclosure information, which is a gap in security transparency. No vulnerable libraries or exposed sensitive data were detected. The absence of a cookie consent mechanism may pose compliance risks under GDPR. Overall, the security posture is good but can be improved by implementing additional headers and formalizing incident response channels.

Recommendations

  1. Implement standard security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner and mechanism to ensure full GDPR compliance.
  3. Create and publish a security.txt file to provide clear vulnerability disclosure and incident response contacts.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and plugins to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve usability for all users, including those with disabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 6.8.3 using the Avada theme, a widely used and supported CMS platform. It uses jQuery 3.7.1 and Adobe Typekit fonts for styling. The site loads scripts and styles efficiently but could benefit from performance optimizations such as caching and minification. Mobile responsiveness is good, with adaptive images and layout adjustments. No broken links or errors were detected. The site lacks advanced SEO structured data like JSON-LD but uses Open Graph tags for social sharing. Technical debt appears low, but adding modern security headers and privacy compliance features would modernize the infrastructure further.
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.
