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

The website www.performanceartaward.ch is dedicated to the Swiss Performance Art Award, presenting information primarily in French with multilingual support. It serves as a cultural platform to promote performance art in Switzerland, targeting artists and the general public interested in this art form. The site uses modern web technologies such as Next.js and React, indicating a contemporary digital infrastructure with moderate performance and good mobile optimization. However, the site lacks visible privacy and cookie policies, contact information, and security headers, which are important for compliance and trust. No analytics or tracking scripts were detected, suggesting minimal user tracking. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be improved with better policy disclosures and security best practices. The site content is safe for general audiences with no adult or explicit material detected.

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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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 Swiss Performance Art Award website positions itself as a niche cultural entity focused on performance art within Switzerland. It appears to be a small-scale operation without visible commercial activities or extensive business information. The business model likely revolves around cultural promotion and event organization. The absence of contact details and business registrations limits the ability to assess revenue streams or partnerships. The multilingual approach indicates an intent to reach a broad Swiss audience across language regions. The site does not show signs of advertising or monetization, suggesting a non-profit or grant-funded model. Growth indicators and partnerships are not evident from the provided data.

Security posture

The website currently exhibits a basic security posture. HTTPS is assumed but not explicitly confirmed from the HTML content. No security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or Strict-Transport-Security were detected, which are recommended to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. The absence of privacy and cookie policies indicates potential GDPR compliance gaps. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is available, which could hinder timely security issue reporting. No forms or input fields were found on the homepage, reducing immediate attack surface but also limiting user engagement features. Overall, the site would benefit from implementing standard security headers, publishing privacy and cookie policies, and establishing clear contact channels for security incidents.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  2. Add visible contact information including general and security incident contacts.
  3. Implement and configure security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Verify and enforce HTTPS across the entire site to ensure secure communications.
  5. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Next.js and React frameworks, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries and CDN-hosted assets such as Plyr for media and Cloudinary for upload widgets. The site structure is well-organized with multilingual support and prefetching of scripts for performance optimization. No CMS was detected, suggesting a custom or static site generation approach. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility features. SEO optimization is basic with meta tags present but no advanced structured data or rich snippets. No analytics or tracking tools were found, indicating minimal data collection. The technical stack is modern but could be enhanced with improved accessibility and SEO practices.
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.
