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

1 finding 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 Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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 business operates in the hospitality and government sectors, focusing on tourism promotion for the Canton of Vaud. It leverages a content-driven model to attract visitors and support local tourism businesses. The site integrates with partner domains such as shop.myvaud.ch and virtual.myvaud.ch for e-commerce and virtual tours. The absence of direct contact details on the main page suggests a focus on information dissemination rather than direct sales. The use of structured navigation and rich media content indicates a mature digital presence aimed at enhancing visitor engagement and supporting sustainable tourism initiatives.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security posture with HTTPS enabled and the use of cookie consent management. However, explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options are not evident in the provided HTML snippet, representing an area for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. The integration of third-party scripts such as Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel is managed with consent mechanisms, aligning with privacy best practices. Incident response and security policy information are not publicly available, which could be enhanced to improve transparency and trust.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish clear and accessible privacy policy and terms of service pages to enhance compliance and user trust.
  3. Provide explicit contact information including security incident response contacts to improve transparency.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and provide detailed data retention policies to align with GDPR and other regulations.

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack with JavaScript frameworks, SVG icons, responsive images, and integrates analytics and consent management tools. It is built on the MyCity Tourism Information System CMS, which supports multilingual content and structured navigation. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization. The site could benefit from improved accessibility features and additional SEO enhancements. Hosting appears to be stable and likely based in Switzerland, supporting regional compliance and performance. Technical debt is minimal based on the provided content, but ongoing maintenance of third-party scripts is recommended.
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.
