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

Schindler Aufzüge AG operates a regional contact website (schindlerplus.ch) focused on providing localized customer support and fault reporting services for elevators and escalators in Switzerland and Liechtenstein. The site offers a postal code and location-based search to connect users with their nearest contact person. The business is positioned as a medium-sized service provider in the transportation sector with a clear focus on customer service and operational support. Technically, the website uses a traditional tech stack including jQuery, jQuery UI, Bootstrap, and Fresco for UI components. The site is moderately optimized for mobile devices and provides basic accessibility features. However, there is no evidence of advanced CMS or modern frameworks, and SEO optimization is minimal. Performance is moderate with no major errors detected. From a security perspective, the site lacks visible HTTPS enforcement details and security headers, which lowers its security posture. Input validation is implemented on the search form to prevent illegal characters, but no published security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are found. Privacy and cookie policies are absent, indicating potential compliance gaps with GDPR and related regulations. Overall, the website is functional and serves its business purpose but requires improvements in security, privacy compliance, and transparency to enhance trust and meet modern standards. Strategic recommendations include implementing HTTPS, publishing privacy and cookie policies, adding security headers, and establishing a vulnerability disclosure process.

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. 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"

  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

  3. 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.

Business context

Business profile

Schindler Aufzüge AG holds a strong regional presence in Switzerland and Liechtenstein with 21 business offices, focusing on elevator and escalator maintenance and customer support. The business model centers on service provision with a direct customer contact approach via localized search. The company benefits from brand recognition and trust signals such as a dedicated 24-hour fault reporting phone line. The lack of visible partnerships or subsidiaries on the site suggests a focused operational scope. Growth opportunities may lie in digital transformation and enhanced customer engagement through improved online services and compliance. The website's limited content and absence of marketing or analytics tools indicate a conservative digital strategy, prioritizing functional service delivery over aggressive online marketing. This approach aligns with the company's essential service nature but may limit broader market reach or data-driven insights.

Security posture

The current security posture is basic with some input validation on user inputs but lacking critical security headers and HTTPS confirmation. The absence of privacy and cookie policies, as well as no visible incident response or vulnerability disclosure information, indicates gaps in compliance and security maturity. No evidence of exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries was found, but the lack of security best practices such as CSP or HSTS headers reduces defense-in-depth. The site would benefit from implementing HTTPS with strong TLS configurations, adding security headers, publishing a privacy policy, and establishing clear incident response contacts. These steps would improve GDPR compliance and reduce risk exposure. Monitoring and updating third-party libraries to avoid vulnerabilities is also recommended.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTPS with a valid SSL/TLS certificate and enforce secure connections site-wide.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  3. Add security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Enhance input validation and sanitization to prevent injection attacks and improve security posture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a traditional technology stack with jQuery, jQuery UI, Bootstrap, Fresco, and Tipped libraries for UI and interaction. The site is structured with responsive design elements and basic accessibility features. However, there is no evidence of a modern CMS or advanced frameworks. Performance is moderate with no major errors, but SEO optimization is minimal due to lack of meta tags and structured data. Technical debt is indicated by the use of older JavaScript libraries and absence of modern security headers. Opportunities exist to modernize the stack, improve SEO with structured data, and enhance performance through optimization and caching strategies. Hosting provider and infrastructure details are not available, limiting deeper technical assessment.
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.
