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

3 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

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 organization operates as an essential entity within the Swiss commerce sector, providing training and labor-related services to employees. Its business model revolves around association membership and competence development. The presence of multilingual partner domains indicates a broad regional reach within Switzerland. The site leverages partnerships with recognized entities and integrates marketing and analytics tools to enhance user engagement and outreach. The lack of direct contact details on the main page may indicate a preference for controlled communication channels or internal member access. The company’s long history and clear market positioning provide competitive advantages and trust signals in its domain.

Security posture

The website maintains a solid security posture with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and a cookie consent mechanism that aligns with GDPR requirements. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The use of reputable third-party services like Cookiebot and Google Tag Manager is well managed. However, the absence of a dedicated security policy or incident response contact information limits transparency in security governance. Regular audits and enhanced disclosure of security practices would strengthen the overall security culture and compliance readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security frameworks and practices.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ emails.
  3. Enhance transparency by listing data protection officer contact information.
  4. Regularly review and update third-party scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Improve visibility of contact information to facilitate user trust and support.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a mature and secure content management system, supported by RTP GmbH hosting. It employs modern web technologies including JavaScript and integrates Cookiebot for cookie consent management. The site is well optimized for SEO and accessibility, with responsive design for mobile devices. Performance is moderate, with potential for improvement through optimization of assets and caching strategies. The technical infrastructure is robust, but opportunities exist for modernization in areas such as enhanced security headers and progressive web app features to improve user experience and resilience.
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.
