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

The website rapperswil-zuerichsee.ch serves as the official travel guide for the Rapperswil and Zurichsee region in Switzerland, providing comprehensive tourism information including events, accommodations, and local attractions. It targets tourists and visitors seeking regional insights and services, positioning itself as a key regional tourism portal. The business model focuses on tourism promotion and visitor engagement, supported by clear contact information and official branding. Technically, the site is built using modern web technologies including Nuxt.js and Tailwind CSS, with integrations for Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, and a consent management platform ensuring GDPR compliance. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization, accessibility, and SEO practices, contributing to a positive user experience. From a security perspective, the website enforces HTTPS, employs standard security headers, and integrates cookie consent mechanisms. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. However, the site lacks a dedicated security policy or incident response page, and no vulnerability disclosure mechanism is present, which could be areas for improvement. Overall, the website presents a low-risk profile with strong business credibility and technical maturity. Strategic recommendations include publishing a formal security policy, establishing an incident response contact, and considering a vulnerability disclosure page to enhance transparency and trust.

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.

  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 site operates as an official regional tourism entity, focusing on hospitality and government sectors. It leverages partnerships and digital marketing tools to attract visitors. The business benefits from a clear market position as a regional guide, with key services including event promotion and accommodation listings. The target audience is primarily tourists and regional visitors. The business model is service-oriented, relying on information dissemination and visitor engagement rather than direct sales. Growth potential lies in expanding digital services and enhancing user engagement through personalized content and booking integrations.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforcement and comprehensive security headers. The use of a consent management platform aligns with GDPR requirements. No critical vulnerabilities or security misconfigurations were found. However, the absence of a published security policy and incident response information indicates room for improvement in transparency and preparedness. The site does not currently provide a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file, which are best practices for responsible security management. Overall, the security posture is strong but could be enhanced by formalizing policies and communication channels.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Establish and publicize an incident response contact or page for reporting security issues.
  3. Implement a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and integrations for security risks.
  5. Enhance form input validation and monitoring to prevent injection or abuse.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack with Nuxt.js and Tailwind CSS, enabling responsive and accessible design. Integration with Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel supports analytics and marketing efforts. The site loads with moderate performance, with opportunities to optimize asset delivery and caching. Accessibility features are well implemented, and SEO metadata is comprehensive. Hosting details are not explicitly identified but the site uses HTTPS with good SSL configuration. Technical risks are minimal but ongoing maintenance of third-party scripts and consent mechanisms is recommended to maintain compliance and security.
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.
