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. 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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  3. 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

  4. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

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

Business profile

OWNBIT operates in the technology sector as a specialized web agency targeting Swiss KMUs and design agencies. Their competitive advantage lies in delivering tailored digital experiences and maintaining long-term client relationships. The business model focuses on project-based custom web development and ongoing support. The company showcases a robust partnership ecosystem with notable Swiss clients and partners, enhancing its market position. Growth indicators include a diverse portfolio of projects and positive customer testimonials. The use of Mailchimp for marketing and active social media presence supports their outreach strategy. The absence of detailed financial or founding year data limits deeper revenue insights but the 12+ years market claim suggests established operations.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security posture with HTTPS enforced and a cookie consent banner indicating GDPR awareness. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or Strict-Transport-Security reduces the overall security hardening. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The lack of a dedicated security policy or incident response contact limits transparency in security governance. There is no evidence of vulnerability disclosure or security certifications. Overall, the security maturity is moderate with room for improvement in formal policies and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and configure essential security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response information on the website to improve transparency and customer trust.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and dependencies to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance privacy compliance by detailing data retention policies and providing explicit GDPR compliance statements.
  5. Consider obtaining recognized security certifications (e.g., ISO 27001) to strengthen business credibility and security posture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern JavaScript stack using Vue.js and Gridsome, enabling fast performance and excellent mobile responsiveness. The use of lazy loading for images and preloading of critical CSS and JS assets contributes to optimized loading times. WordPress is used as a CMS for some projects, indicating flexibility in platform choice. The site structure is clear with well-organized navigation and semantic HTML elements. No major technical debt or outdated technologies were observed. Hosting provider details were not identified from the content. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable web presence.
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.
