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

8 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  2. 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';…

  3. 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

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 · found on this site
  • 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.

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention straehl.ch, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for straehl.ch right now. New leaks arrive continuously, so monitoring on Breach alerts you if that changes.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

The company operates in the manufacturing and retail sectors, focusing on cheese production and sales. Their business model includes direct retail via their Chäslädeli, B2B customized cheese production, and recipe content to engage consumers. The firm leverages social media channels like Instagram and LinkedIn to enhance brand visibility. The domain and WHOIS data confirm legitimacy and consistency with the company's Swiss roots and long history. No suspicious patterns or privacy protection masking registrant data were found, reinforcing trustworthiness. The company appears medium-sized with a clear focus on quality and sustainability, positioning itself as a reputable player in the Swiss cheese market.

Security posture

The website uses HTTPS with an excellent SSL configuration, ensuring encrypted communications. Cookie consent mechanisms are in place, supporting privacy compliance. However, the lack of visible security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), X-Frame-Options, and HSTS reduces the overall security posture. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which could be a gap in transparency and readiness. The use of third-party scripts like Facebook Pixel and Google Analytics introduces moderate tracking but is common practice. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security maturity is moderate to good but could be enhanced by implementing additional security headers and publishing security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen security posture.
  2. Publish explicit security and incident response policies on the website to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all users.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts to mitigate potential security risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built with modern web standards including HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript. It uses SVG graphics for logos and icons, and integrates third-party analytics and marketing tools such as Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive images and preloaded fonts for performance. While the CMS or hosting provider is not explicitly identified, the site shows good SEO practices with meta tags and Open Graph data. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in caching and resource optimization. No major technical debt or errors were observed in the HTML content. The site could benefit from enhanced accessibility and security header implementation to align with best practices.
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.
