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

6 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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. GDPR outside view

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

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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

The company positions itself as a key player in the Swiss real estate sector, focusing on property listings and advertising. Its business model revolves around providing a digital marketplace for property seekers and advertisers. The platform's integration with major analytics and consent tools indicates a commitment to data-driven marketing and compliance. The absence of direct contact details on the homepage suggests contact information may be located elsewhere or requires further discovery. The company appears to maintain consistent branding and a clear market focus, with no suspicious or misleading elements detected.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enabled and the use of a reputable cookie consent management platform. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the lack of published security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates room for improvement in transparency and readiness. The site does not appear to be behind a WAF challenge or security block, allowing full content access. Security headers are assumed but not explicitly visible in the HTML content, suggesting a need for explicit documentation and implementation verification.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the homepage.
  2. Add a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and improve security transparency.
  3. Provide clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for customer support and security incidents.
  4. Explicitly implement and document security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher compliance standards and improve user experience for all users.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Angular 18.2.12, indicating a modern and maintainable frontend framework. It uses Google Tag Manager and Usercentrics CMP for analytics and cookie consent, respectively, showing adherence to privacy regulations. Hosting appears to be via Cloudflare, providing performance and security benefits. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and good SEO practices including hreflang tags for multilingual support. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary solution. Performance is fast with preloading and prefetching of fonts and scripts. Technical debt appears low, but the absence of explicit security headers in the HTML source is a potential risk area.
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.
