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

Oriented.net is a Swiss-based managed services provider specializing in open-source software services and Linux server management. The company operates from a self-owned data centre in Switzerland and holds ISO 27001 certification, underscoring its commitment to information security. Their service portfolio includes various server types such as ARM VPS, GPU servers, physical servers, and managed security services like web application firewalls. The website targets businesses seeking reliable and secure Linux-based hosting and managed services. Technically, the site employs modern JavaScript libraries and Matomo analytics for privacy-conscious tracking, hosted on their own infrastructure. However, the site lacks visible privacy and cookie policies, and no contact information is directly available in the provided HTML content. Security posture is solid due to ISO certification and domain transfer protection, but could be improved by enabling DNSSEC and adding security headers. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy but would benefit from enhanced privacy compliance and contact transparency.

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.

    • 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

  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

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 384-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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 niche provider in the technology sector, focusing on managed open-source Linux services with a strong emphasis on security and compliance. Their long domain age (since 2002) supports their established market presence. The business model revolves around managed hosting and security services, targeting small to medium enterprises requiring specialized Linux infrastructure. Partnerships with related service providers such as pihost.ch and woelkli.com expand their service ecosystem. The lack of visible contact details and privacy policies may limit customer trust and regulatory compliance. Growth potential exists through enhanced digital presence and compliance improvements.

Security posture

Oriented.net demonstrates a mature security posture highlighted by ISO 27001 certification and domain transfer lock status. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers reduces the overall security hardening. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is publicly available, which could hinder transparency and trust. The use of Matomo analytics suggests a privacy-aware approach, but the lack of cookie consent mechanisms and privacy policies indicates compliance gaps. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. Enhancing security headers, enabling DNSSEC, and publishing incident response contacts would strengthen their security maturity.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to protect against DNS spoofing and improve domain security.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with GDPR compliance statements to enhance legal compliance and user trust.
  3. Add visible and verified contact information including emails and phone numbers to improve customer support and transparency.
  4. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to harden web security.
  5. Establish and publish an incident response policy and vulnerability disclosure program to demonstrate security readiness and transparency.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern JavaScript stack including Modernizr and asynchronous loading of Matomo analytics, indicating a contemporary technical approach. Hosting is managed in a self-owned Swiss data centre, which supports data sovereignty and control. Performance is moderate with basic mobile optimization and accessibility features. SEO is basic with canonical tags and meta descriptions present but no advanced structured data or Open Graph tags detected. No CMS was identified, suggesting a custom or static site approach. The absence of security headers and DNSSEC are technical risks that should be addressed. Overall, the technical implementation is solid but has room for modernization and compliance improvements.
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.
