Portes Ouvertes Suisse is a well-established Swiss non-profit organization dedicated to supporting persecuted Christians worldwide since 1955. The website serves as a comprehensive portal for information, prayer campaigns, donation facilitation, and awareness raising, primarily targeting French-speaking audiences. It maintains a strong market position within the non-profit sector focused on religious freedom and humanitarian aid. Technically, the site leverages modern frameworks such as Bootstrap and Microsoft PowerApps Portal, integrating multiple analytics and marketing tools including Google Tag Manager, Microsoft Clarity, and Facebook Pixel. The hosting and telemetry suggest a robust Microsoft Azure infrastructure.

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. 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 SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-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
  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 Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Cloudflare, Google APIs

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  3. 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"

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 organization operates on a donation-based business model with volunteer engagement and advocacy as key components. Its target audience includes donors, volunteers, and supporters concerned with Christian persecution. The website's content quality and navigation facilitate user engagement and conversion. Partnerships with payment processors like Payrexx enhance operational efficiency. The lack of visible certifications or security policies suggests room for improvement in formal trust signals. The organization's long history and consistent WHOIS data reinforce its credibility. Growth opportunities may include expanding multilingual support and publishing detailed compliance and security documentation.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS, anti-forgery tokens, and consent-based analytics activation. Security headers are implied and telemetry is actively used for monitoring. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response plan, or vulnerability disclosure mechanism limits transparency. The site should consider publishing these documents and providing dedicated security contact channels to enhance trust and compliance, especially under GDPR and NIS2 frameworks. Regular audits of third-party scripts and dependencies are recommended to mitigate supply chain risks.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page with contact information
  2. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file
  3. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher standards
  4. Regularly review and update third-party scripts to avoid vulnerabilities
  5. Expand multilingual support and clearly link privacy and cookie policies in all languages

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Microsoft PowerApps Portal integrated with Bootstrap 4 and jQuery, ensuring responsive design and moderate performance. It uses multiple third-party analytics and marketing tools, including Google Tag Manager, Microsoft Clarity, Facebook Pixel, and ClickDimensions, indicating a mature digital marketing strategy. Hosting appears to be on Microsoft Azure, supported by Application Insights telemetry. While the site is generally well-structured and SEO-optimized, some technical debt may exist due to multiple external dependencies. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in load times and accessibility. The use of anti-forgery tokens and consent management scripts reflects good security hygiene.
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.
