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

PS Werbung (PSW) is a Swiss-based small media agency specializing in web design, graphic design, branding, and signage services primarily targeting small and medium-sized enterprises (KMU) in the Zurich region. The company offers comprehensive creative services including logo creation, corporate identity development, website design, and physical advertising solutions such as vehicle and building signage. Their market position is that of a trusted regional partner with a portfolio including long-term clients like ERF Medien. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with Elementor, leveraging modern web technologies and optimized for mobile devices. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and no visible vulnerabilities, but lacks advanced security headers and formal incident response disclosures. Privacy compliance is weak due to absence of privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the website is professional, well-branded, and trustworthy, but could improve in compliance and security 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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  2. 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 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';…

  3. 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

    • 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

  4. 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

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

PSW operates in the media sector with a focus on creative services for KMU and municipalities. Their business model is service-based, generating revenue through project work in web and graphic design. The company demonstrates competitive advantages through specialized local knowledge, a strong portfolio, and long-standing client relationships. Target customers are regional businesses and public entities seeking professional branding and advertising solutions. Growth indicators include recent projects and active content updates. The partnership ecosystem is not explicitly detailed but includes clients like ERF Medien. Strategic observations suggest opportunities to enhance compliance and security posture to strengthen market trust.

Security posture

The website shows a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and no exposed sensitive data. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is provided, which limits transparency and readiness perception. Privacy policies and cookie consent mechanisms are missing, indicating GDPR compliance gaps. The site uses common third-party libraries with no known vulnerabilities detected. Overall, the security posture is functional but could be significantly improved by implementing security headers, formal policies, and incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with GDPR-compliant consent mechanisms.
  2. Add security headers (Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Create and expose a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability reporting and improve transparency.
  4. Provide clear incident response contact information (e.g., security@ or abuse@ email addresses).
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party plugins and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform using Elementor page builder and several supporting libraries such as jQuery and Font Awesome. It employs lazy loading for images and Google Fonts for typography. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and good SEO metadata including Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data. Performance is moderate, with caching and CSS optimization evident. No hosting provider details were found. Technical risks include missing security headers and lack of formal compliance documentation. The site is well-maintained with recent content updates and a professional design consistent with industry standards.
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.
