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

The website www.soelden.com serves as a tourism portal for the Sölden region in Austria, promoting summer and winter holiday activities such as skiing, biking, and hiking. The site targets tourists and outdoor sports enthusiasts, providing information and services related to alpine nature exploration and urban experiences in the valley. The business model focuses on destination marketing and visitor engagement, positioning itself within the hospitality industry. The website demonstrates a good level of content quality and branding consistency, with a professional design and clear navigation. From a technical perspective, the site employs modern JavaScript libraries including GSAP, Swiper, Leaflet, and Rive, alongside Google Tag Manager and Cookiebot for analytics and cookie consent management. The performance is moderate with good mobile optimization, though accessibility features are basic. No CMS or hosting provider details were identified from the provided data. Security posture shows room for improvement; while HTTPS is presumably enabled (not explicitly confirmed), no security headers were detected in the analyzed content. The site implements a cookie consent mechanism, indicating some privacy compliance efforts, but lacks visible privacy policy, terms of service, or security incident contact information. The WHOIS data is unavailable, raising concerns about domain registration legitimacy. Overall, the website is functional and professionally presented but would benefit from enhanced security practices, transparent privacy policies, and verified domain registration to improve trustworthiness and compliance.

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

2 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. 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 SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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 website operates in the tourism sector, specifically promoting the Sölden region in Austria as a destination for mountain sports and vibrant valley life. Its competitive advantage lies in its comprehensive presentation of both summer and winter activities, appealing to a broad audience of tourists. The business model is primarily informational and promotional, likely supported by partnerships with regional tourism entities as evidenced by multiple linked partner domains. Revenue streams may include advertising, partnerships, and possibly bookings or referrals, though no direct e-commerce was detected. The target customer segments are outdoor enthusiasts and holidaymakers seeking alpine experiences. The presence of multiple regional partner domains suggests a strong local partnership ecosystem. Strategic observations include the need for improved domain legitimacy and enhanced privacy and security transparency to strengthen market position.

Security posture

The current security maturity level of the website is moderate but incomplete. The site uses HTTPS (assumed from standard practice and external scripts loaded via HTTPS), and a cookie consent mechanism is in place, indicating awareness of privacy regulations. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options is a notable gap. No visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content, but the lack of WHOIS registration data and absence of security or incident response policies reduce overall trust. Compliance gaps include missing privacy and terms of service documentation and no visible contact channels for security incidents. Data protection practices appear minimal, and incident response readiness cannot be assessed. The security culture is not evident from the content. Business impact of these gaps includes potential trust erosion and compliance risks under GDPR and related regulations.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to enhance transparency and compliance.
  2. Configure and enforce security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  3. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration information to ensure domain legitimacy and improve trust.
  4. Establish and publicize incident response contact channels (e.g., security@ or abuse@ email addresses) to facilitate vulnerability reporting and response.
  5. Conduct a security audit to identify and remediate any potential vulnerabilities and improve overall security posture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website leverages a modern JavaScript-based front-end with libraries such as GSAP for animations, Swiper for sliders, Leaflet for maps, and Rive for interactive graphics. Google Tag Manager is used for analytics and marketing tag management, and Cookiebot manages cookie consent, indicating a mature approach to user privacy. The site appears to be well-structured with proper meta tags and SEO optimization. Mobile optimization is good, though accessibility features are basic and could be improved. No CMS or hosting provider information was identified, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Performance is moderate, with potential for optimization. Technical risks include lack of security headers and incomplete privacy documentation, which could impact user trust and regulatory 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.
