The platform targets wine enthusiasts, industry professionals, and consumers interested in Swiss wines, providing detailed information about wine regions, producers, and events.

Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS and includes essential security headers, though it lacks a publicly available security policy or incident response information.

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

5 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"

    • 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';…

  2. 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

  3. 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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 384-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

Business profile

Swiss Wine Promotion occupies a niche market focused on the Swiss wine industry, serving as a promotional and informational hub. Its business model centers on supporting Swiss wine producers and the hospitality sector through marketing, event organization, and information dissemination. The company targets a mature audience including importers, distributors, and wine consumers. The website's content quality and branding consistency position it as a trusted source within its sector. While the domain's WHOIS data is missing, the company's physical address and contact details reinforce its credibility. The site uses Google Analytics and Tag Manager for marketing insights, reflecting a data-driven approach. No affiliate or advertising networks were detected, suggesting a focus on organic promotion rather than aggressive marketing. The absence of security certifications or vulnerability disclosures indicates potential areas for strategic enhancement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with HTTPS enforced and multiple security headers implemented, contributing to an excellent SSL configuration. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the lack of a published security policy, incident response plan, or vulnerability disclosure mechanism limits transparency and preparedness perception. No security.txt file or dedicated security contact was found, which could hinder effective communication in case of security incidents. The site’s forms appear secure with no visible issues. Overall, the security posture is good but could be strengthened by adding formal security documentation and incident response channels to enhance trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a detailed security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Establish and publicize an incident response contact or page to improve transparency.
  3. Implement a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance WHOIS domain registration transparency to improve business credibility.
  5. Regularly review and update privacy and cookie policies to maintain GDPR compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern technology stack featuring Nuxt.js (Vue.js framework), Tailwind CSS for styling, and JavaScript libraries such as Swiper.js and Mapbox GL JS for interactive elements. The site is well-optimized for performance and mobile responsiveness, with clean and valid HTML/CSS. SEO best practices are followed with proper meta tags and structured data. Accessibility is good, supporting a wide range of users. Hosting details are not explicitly identified, but the use of CDN resources suggests a distributed content delivery approach. The technical infrastructure supports a professional and engaging user experience with minimal technical debt or performance bottlenecks.
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.
