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

5 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • 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

  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
    • High

      SSL Certificate Expires Soon

      SSL certificate expires in 12 days

      What to do: Renew SSL certificate before expiration

      • NIS2 21(2)(h)
      • IR 2024/2690 9.2(c): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 9.2(c): Cryptography

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

Neu.sw holds a stable position as a regional utility provider, serving both private and commercial customers with energy and transport services. Its competitive advantage lies in integrated offerings including energy supply, public transport, and digital services like a customer portal and mobile app. Revenue streams likely derive from energy tariffs, transport ticketing, and ancillary services. The company targets local residents and businesses, emphasizing community engagement and sustainability. Partnerships with local organizations and digital innovation initiatives are evident. Growth indicators include active news updates and service expansions. The business ecosystem is focused on regional utility and public service delivery.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and script nonce attributes used to mitigate injection risks. However, the absence of advanced security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represents an area for improvement. No exposed credentials or vulnerable libraries were detected. The lack of a published security policy or incident response contact limits transparency. GDPR compliance is partial, with cookie consent implemented but no detailed privacy policy found. Overall, the security culture appears adequate but could benefit from formalized policies and enhanced HTTP header configurations.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages to improve transparency and compliance.
  2. Implement advanced HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Provide a dedicated security or incident response contact channel to facilitate vulnerability reporting and incident management.
  4. Enhance cookie consent mechanisms with detailed information on data processing and retention policies.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is powered by TYPO3 CMS, a robust open-source content management system, indicating a stable and scalable infrastructure. Frontend technologies include modern CSS and JavaScript frameworks such as Swiper.js for interactive elements. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility features. Performance is moderate, with deferred script loading and optimized images. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured data including JSON-LD for video content. Hosting details are not explicit, but domain name servers suggest professional DNS management. Opportunities exist to improve technical security and privacy disclosures.
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.
