Swiss Ski School is a Swiss-based service provider specializing in ski and snow sports instruction across multiple disciplines and age groups. The website presents a comprehensive offering of winter and summer activities, targeting a broad audience from beginners to experts, including people with disabilities. The business appears to be well-positioned nationally within Switzerland, leveraging a multi-language platform to serve diverse customers. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with Elementor and integrates modern tools such as Google Tag Manager and Leaflet.js for maps. The site is mobile-optimized and SEO-friendly, though some accessibility features could be improved. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and no exposed sensitive data, but lacks some security headers and explicit security policies.

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

6 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 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

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  4. 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 · 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.

Technical appendix

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

Business context

Business profile

The Swiss Ski School operates in the hospitality sector, focusing on ski instruction and related outdoor activities. Its business model revolves around providing educational and recreational services for winter and summer sports. The website's detailed categorization of services by activity, age, and region indicates a mature organizational structure. The use of multilingual support and structured data suggests an intent to reach a wide audience and improve search visibility. The absence of explicit contact details on the homepage may indicate a preference for contact via forms or internal pages. The company appears to maintain a consistent brand identity and leverages partnerships with regional ski schools. Growth potential exists through expanding digital presence and enhancing direct customer engagement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with HTTPS enforced and no visible leakage of sensitive information. The use of Google Tag Manager and analytics is standard but requires ongoing monitoring to avoid privacy issues. The lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a gap that could expose the site to certain web attacks. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are provided, which limits transparency in security management. The cookie consent mechanism is a positive privacy feature, but the absence of a detailed privacy policy reduces GDPR compliance confidence. Overall, the security posture is moderate with opportunities for enhancement in headers, policies, and disclosure.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages to improve legal compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to harden the website against common attacks.
  3. Add a security.txt file and vulnerability disclosure policy to facilitate responsible reporting and incident response.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve usability for all users, including those with disabilities.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and plugins to ensure they are up to date and free from vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress platform using Elementor for page building, supported by plugins such as Yoast SEO for search optimization and GeoDirectory for location-based services. It integrates Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics for tracking and performance monitoring. The site uses Leaflet.js for interactive maps and Bootstrap for responsive design. Performance is moderate with caching and minification evident. The multi-language setup via WPML is well implemented with hreflang tags. Some inline styles and scripts could be optimized further. No major technical debt is apparent, but security enhancements and privacy policy integration are recommended 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.
