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

Regionale 2025 is a regional government-backed initiative focused on promoting cultural, spatial, and societal projects in the Limmattal region of Switzerland. The website serves as a platform to showcase around 30 innovative projects supported by 16 municipalities and the cantons of Aargau and Zürich, with a program of events running from May to October 2025. The target audience includes local residents, cultural stakeholders, and visitors interested in regional development and community engagement. The business model is primarily public sector and non-profit, emphasizing regional collaboration and cultural promotion. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern plugins such as Gravity Forms for data collection, Instagram Feed Pro for social media integration, and Google reCAPTCHA for form security. It uses Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel for analytics and marketing. The site is mobile-optimized with good accessibility and SEO practices, though some improvements in security headers and cookie consent mechanisms are recommended. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses reCAPTCHA to protect forms, with no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. However, it lacks explicit security policies and incident response information, which could be enhanced to improve trust and compliance. Privacy compliance is basic, with a privacy policy present but no cookie consent banner detected. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and well-aligned with its public sector mission. Strategic recommendations include implementing cookie consent for GDPR compliance, adding security and incident response policies, and enhancing security headers to strengthen the security posture further.

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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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 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

Regionale 2025 occupies a niche regional government position, leveraging partnerships with cantons and municipalities to promote cultural and societal projects. Its competitive advantage lies in official backing and a comprehensive event program that engages the community. Revenue streams are likely public funding and grants, with no commercial sales evident. The target customers are local residents, cultural organizations, and visitors. Growth indicators include a robust event schedule and active social media presence. The partnership ecosystem includes cantonal governments, media outlets, and cultural institutions, reinforcing legitimacy and reach. Operationally, the initiative focuses on community engagement, cultural promotion, and regional development.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and use of Google reCAPTCHA to protect forms. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and lack of explicit security or incident response policies indicate room for improvement. GDPR compliance is partially addressed with a privacy policy but lacks cookie consent mechanisms. Incident response readiness is not documented. Overall, the security culture appears cautious but could benefit from formalized policies and enhanced technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a cookie consent banner to comply fully with GDPR requirements.
  2. Add explicit security and incident response policies accessible on the website.
  3. Configure and enforce security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Document data retention policies and privacy practices more comprehensively.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve inclusivity and compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern WordPress CMS with well-known plugins such as Gravity Forms and Instagram Feed Pro, indicating a mature technical infrastructure. It integrates Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel for analytics and marketing, showing digital maturity in user tracking and engagement. Performance is moderate with preloaded fonts and images, and mobile optimization is good. Some technical debt is evident in missing security headers and lack of cookie consent mechanisms. The site is well-structured with valid HTML and CSS, but could benefit from further optimization and security hardening to reduce risks and improve compliance.
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.
