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

Montreux Riviera is a regional tourism organization promoting the Montreux Riviera area in Switzerland. The website offers comprehensive information on accommodations, events, activities, and local attractions, targeting tourists and visitors seeking travel and leisure experiences. The platform supports multiple languages and provides booking capabilities, event calendars, and curated content to enhance visitor engagement. Technically, the site uses a modern technology stack including Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, and a proprietary CMS (MyCity Tourism Information System). The site is mobile-optimized with good SEO and accessibility features. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS usage and no exposed sensitive data, though security headers are not explicitly detected. Privacy compliance is supported with visible privacy and cookie policies and consent mechanisms. However, the absence of WHOIS data for the domain reduces trustworthiness from a domain registration perspective. Overall, the site is professional, content-rich, and trustworthy for its intended audience.

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.

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 Montreux Riviera website serves as a key digital asset for the regional tourism authority, positioning itself as a central hub for travel planning and local discovery. Its business model revolves around destination marketing, accommodation bookings, and event promotion. The site leverages partnerships with local businesses and tourism stakeholders, evident from linked partner domains and sponsorship logos. The target customers are leisure travelers, families, and cultural tourists. The presence of special offers and gift ideas indicates diversified revenue streams. The organization maintains active social media channels to extend reach and engagement. The website's content and structure reflect a mature digital marketing approach with a focus on user experience and conversion.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced, and no sensitive data is exposed in the HTML content. The use of third-party tracking scripts is standard for marketing but requires ongoing monitoring for vulnerabilities. The lack of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options is a gap that could be addressed to enhance protection against common web attacks. No incident response or security policy information is publicly available, which is typical for tourism sites but could be improved for transparency. Privacy compliance is well addressed with clear policies and cookie consent mechanisms. Overall, the security posture is adequate but could benefit from enhanced header configurations and documented incident response.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen web security.
  2. Verify and publish domain WHOIS information to improve trust and legitimacy perception.
  3. Conduct regular security audits of third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Consider publishing a security policy and incident response contact information to enhance transparency.
  5. Maintain and update privacy and cookie policies to ensure ongoing GDPR compliance and user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the MyCity Tourism Information System CMS, integrating modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery, ProgressBar.js, and Swiper.js for UI enhancements. It uses Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel for analytics and marketing. The site is responsive and optimized for mobile devices, with good SEO metadata and Open Graph tags for social sharing. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous loading of scripts and optimized images. Accessibility is basic but present, with semantic HTML and ARIA attributes. There is room for improvement in security header implementation and possibly hosting provider transparency. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional tourism website with a good user experience.
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.
