The website targets private investors in Switzerland, offering a broad portfolio including ETFs, index funds, thematic investments, and real estate products.

Technically, the website is built on Adobe Experience Manager, leveraging modern JavaScript and SVG graphics, and implements a cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR. The site is well-structured, mobile-optimized, and professionally designed, providing a positive user experience. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS and uses consent management tools, though explicit security headers could be further verified.

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

1 finding rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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.

Technical appendix

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

Business context

Business profile

Swisscanto holds a strong market position in the Swiss financial sector, focusing on fund management and sustainable investment solutions. Their business model revolves around offering diversified investment products to private clients, leveraging thematic and strategic funds to capture market trends. The company likely generates revenue through fund management fees and related financial services. The website's multi-language support and comprehensive product navigation indicate a broad target audience within Switzerland. Partnerships are evident with product subdomains and analytics providers, supporting a robust digital ecosystem. Growth indicators include thematic investment offerings aligned with current sustainability trends. The lack of explicit parent or subsidiary information suggests Swisscanto operates as a standalone or primary brand entity in this domain.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security posture with mandatory HTTPS usage and integration of a consent management platform (OneTrust), indicating compliance with privacy regulations. Security headers are implied but not explicitly confirmed in the provided data, suggesting an area for improvement. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The absence of a public vulnerability disclosure or incident response contact is a gap in transparency. The missing WHOIS data raises minor concerns but is likely due to privacy or registry policies rather than malicious intent. Overall, the site maintains good security hygiene appropriate for a financial services provider but should consider publishing explicit security policies and incident response contacts to enhance trust.

Recommendations

  1. Verify and explicitly implement security headers such as X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Content-Security-Policy.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Conduct regular third-party library vulnerability assessments and update dependencies accordingly.
  4. Enhance WHOIS information availability or provide justification for privacy protection to reduce trust concerns.
  5. Maintain and regularly update cookie consent mechanisms to ensure ongoing GDPR compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Adobe Experience Manager, a robust enterprise CMS platform, indicating a mature technical infrastructure. It uses modern JavaScript libraries and SVG for scalable graphics, contributing to good performance and visual quality. The site includes responsive design elements for mobile optimization and accessibility features such as skip links. Analytics and consent management are integrated via Adobe Analytics and OneTrust, supporting data-driven insights and privacy compliance. Performance is moderate, with potential for optimization in loading times and script management. The technical stack is well-suited for a financial services website, though continuous monitoring and updates are recommended to mitigate technical debt and security risks.
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.
