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

Grandes Tables Suisses is a Swiss association of chefs dedicated to promoting high-quality cuisine and hospitality services nationally and internationally. The organization focuses on culinary excellence, health-conscious food practices, and training future generations. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with multilingual support, targeting a general audience interested in Swiss gastronomy and hospitality. Technically, the site is built on WordPress using modern plugins and frameworks such as Elementor and Yoast SEO, with integration of Google Maps and Mailchimp for marketing and user engagement. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enabled and no visible vulnerabilities, though the absence of explicit privacy and cookie policies indicates compliance gaps. The domain registration is consistent with the business claims, enhancing trustworthiness. Overall, the site is well-positioned in its niche but should improve privacy compliance and security transparency.

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

9 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 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 Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

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.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

The association operates in the hospitality sector, leveraging a network of partner organizations and renowned chefs to maintain a strong market presence in Switzerland. Its business model centers on membership, promotion, and training services rather than direct commercial sales. The website supports this model by showcasing chefs, recipes, partners, and news, fostering community and brand recognition. The presence of multiple partner domains indicates a collaborative ecosystem. The site’s multilingual capabilities and social media integration suggest an intent to reach diverse audiences. Growth indicators include active content updates and event promotion. However, the lack of direct contact details and formal policies may limit user trust and engagement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to high security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and no exposed sensitive data in the HTML. Use of WordPress plugins and external scripts is standard, but no advanced security headers were detected in the provided data. There is no evidence of a dedicated security or incident response policy, nor contact channels for reporting security issues. Privacy compliance is minimal, lacking visible cookie consent mechanisms or privacy policies, which could expose the organization to regulatory risks under GDPR. The site should enhance its security posture by implementing security headers, formalizing incident response contacts, and publishing privacy and cookie policies.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  2. Implement a cookie consent mechanism to inform and obtain user consent for tracking.
  3. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Provide explicit contact information for security incidents and data protection inquiries.
  5. Regularly audit and update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a WordPress CMS with Elementor page builder and Yoast SEO plugin, indicating a modern and flexible infrastructure. It integrates Google Maps API for location services and Mailchimp for marketing automation. The CSS framework Foundation is used for responsive design. Performance appears moderate with multiple external scripts and stylesheets loaded, but no critical performance bottlenecks detected. Accessibility is basic, with room for improvement in ARIA roles and keyboard navigation. SEO is well addressed through meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. Technical risks include potential plugin vulnerabilities and missing security headers, which should be addressed to ensure operational stability and security.
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.
