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
7 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.
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
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
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"
This scan found 25 issues across 6 checks. Monitoring re-runs those checks daily, emails you when something material changes and records each fix, so you can show progress.

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.

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.

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Business context
Business profile
The company holds a stable position in the Swiss Christian media market, leveraging partnerships with related media outlets such as Life Channel and Music Loft. Revenue streams primarily come from donations, supported by transparent communication of broadcasting costs. The website supports audience engagement through newsletters and multiple listening platforms including DAB+, apps, and internet streaming. The partnership ecosystem is well integrated, enhancing reach and brand consistency. Growth indicators include regular content updates and active social media channels. Strategic observations suggest maintaining strong compliance and expanding digital outreach could further solidify market presence.
Security posture
The website demonstrates a good security maturity level with enforced HTTPS, GDPR-compliant cookie consent, and use of reputable analytics platforms with consent mechanisms. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. However, explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options are not evident and should be implemented to harden defenses. Incident response and security policy documentation are absent, indicating room for improvement in formal security governance. Overall, the security culture appears adequate for the organization's size and risk profile but could benefit from formalized policies and enhanced header configurations.
Recommendations
Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response plan to improve transparency and preparedness.
Add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
Conduct regular third-party script audits to ensure no vulnerable libraries are in use.
Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.
Automated reading of the public site. Ratings are indicative.

Technical notes
Notes
The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS with a well-curated tech stack including UIkit for UI components, JW Player for media playback, and multiple analytics tools (Google Analytics, Matomo, Plausible) integrated with consent management. Performance is moderate with asynchronous script loading and caching strategies implied. The site is mobile optimized and SEO-friendly with proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). Technical debt appears low, but opportunities exist to improve security headers and accessibility compliance. Hosting details are not explicit but the site uses multiple external CDNs and tracking services. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business needs effectively with room for incremental 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.
