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

3 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 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. 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

The company holds a strong market position in the Swiss pharmaceutical sector, focusing on generics and health solutions. Their business model includes product distribution, health education, and professional medical engagement through events and secure portals. Partnerships with DocCheck and SwissRX enhance professional user authentication. The website content and structure support both consumer and professional audiences, indicating a dual-segment strategy. The presence of career links and transparency pages suggests a well-established corporate governance and recruitment focus. The company leverages modern analytics and consent tools to optimize marketing and compliance, indicating a forward-looking digital strategy.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with strong SSL configuration and uses cookie consent mechanisms compliant with GDPR. Tracking is done via reputable services like Google Analytics and Microsoft Application Insights. No critical security headers were explicitly detected, suggesting room for improvement in CSP, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options headers. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were found in the HTML content. Login forms redirect to trusted third-party authentication services, reducing risk. The absence of explicit security or incident response policies on the site is a minor gap. Overall, the security posture is solid but could benefit from enhanced header policies and published security documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options headers to strengthen security.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher compliance standards and improve user experience for all users.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools for vulnerabilities and privacy compliance.
  5. Maintain and update privacy and cookie policies to reflect evolving regulations and best practices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack including Microsoft Application Insights for telemetry, Google Tag Manager for analytics, and OneTrust for cookie consent management. The presence of ASP.NET handlers suggests a Microsoft-based backend. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and uses SVG icons for scalability. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and canonical URLs. The CMS appears custom or enterprise-grade, with no common open-source CMS detected. Technical debt is minimal based on the HTML structure, but security header implementation could be improved. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and compliant online presence.
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.
