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

Media One Group is a prominent private media company operating in the French-speaking region of Switzerland, specializing in radio and television broadcasting.

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

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

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 holds a strong market position as the leading private radio group in Suisse Romande, leveraging a portfolio of well-known brands such as One FM, LFM, Rouge, and Radio Lac. Their competitive advantage lies in regional focus, diversified media offerings, and integrated advertising solutions. Revenue streams likely include advertising sales across radio, TV, and digital platforms, event sponsorship, and production services. The target customers are regional listeners and advertisers seeking local engagement. Growth indicators include expansion into digital radio and multiple TV channels. The partnership ecosystem includes recognized media brands and digital platforms, enhancing market reach and brand visibility.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and CAPTCHA implemented on forms. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. Compliance gaps include missing publicly accessible privacy and cookie policies, and no incident response or security contact information. The security culture appears basic, with room for improvement in transparency and technical controls to meet GDPR and NIS2 standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  2. Add security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection.
  3. Publish an incident response policy and provide dedicated security contact channels (e.g., security@ or abuse@ emails).
  4. Ensure all forms have CSRF protection and input validation to prevent injection attacks.
  5. Enhance transparency by including data retention policies and user rights information.

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform using popular plugins such as WPBakery Page Builder, Contact Form 7, and Uber Grid. It leverages jQuery and Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and uses modern web fonts and icon sets. Performance is moderate with some optimization opportunities. No hosting provider details were identified. Technical risks include lack of security headers and incomplete privacy compliance. Modernization opportunities include adopting stricter security policies and improving accessibility features.
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.
