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. 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';…

  2. 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

      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
  • 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 targets regional commuters, tourists, and groups requiring transport services. Their business model centers on public transport operations funded through ticket sales and subscriptions. Partnerships with related e-commerce and tourism sites enhance their service offerings. The company maintains a consistent brand presence and leverages social media channels for engagement. Growth indicators include digital ticketing and mobility services expansion. The ecosystem includes partners like shop.mbc.ch and lavoiedessens.ch, supporting ancillary services. Strategic observations suggest focusing on enhancing privacy compliance and security transparency to strengthen customer trust.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS, modern security headers, and secure form handling. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates gaps in security governance and transparency. GDPR compliance is partially addressed via a privacy policy, but cookie consent mechanisms are lacking. The security score is good but can be improved by formalizing security policies and providing clear incident response channels.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a visible cookie consent banner to comply with GDPR and enhance user trust.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and frameworks.
  3. Add incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  4. Create and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve inclusivity and compliance with standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern React and Next.js stack with Bootstrap for UI components, ensuring responsive and mobile-friendly design. Hosting via a CDN (gatemedia.ch) supports performance and availability. SEO is well addressed with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. The site loads asynchronously with multiple JavaScript chunks, indicating modular architecture. No CMS was detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary solution. Performance is moderate, with potential for optimization in loading times. Accessibility is basic and could be improved. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business needs effectively but can benefit from enhancements in accessibility and performance tuning.
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.
