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. 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.

    • Critical

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  2. 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

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

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

Moneyhouse operates in the finance and technology sectors, providing subscription-based access to Swiss commercial register data and economic reports. Its business model includes freemium and premium tiers, corporate offerings, and API services for integration into client IT environments. The platform serves SMEs and business professionals, offering tools for risk management, sales enhancement, and background checks. The parent company Neue Zürcher Zeitung AG adds trust and market presence. Partnerships with advertising and data service providers enhance its ecosystem. The website's multilingual support and regional news offerings indicate a broad market reach within Switzerland. Growth indicators include daily new company registrations and liquidation reports, reflecting active data updates.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses consent management scripts to comply with GDPR cookie requirements. No security headers were explicitly detected in the HTML content, suggesting room for improvement. There is no published security policy or incident response contact, which is a gap in transparency and readiness. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were found. Forms are present but appear secured by standard web practices. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by publishing explicit security policies, adding security headers, and providing clear incident response channels.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Add explicit incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and configure security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all users.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern JavaScript-based front end with asynchronous loading of Google Tag Manager and consent management scripts. It employs structured data (JSON-LD) for SEO and business information, and supports multiple languages with hreflang tags. The site includes responsive design elements for mobile optimization and uses select2 for enhanced dropdown UI. Performance appears moderate with some deferred script loading. No CMS or hosting provider details are explicitly detected. The technical stack is solid but could benefit from improved accessibility and additional security headers. The site integrates advertising and tracking through known networks and manages user consent effectively.
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.
