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

Touring Club Schweiz (TCS) operates as a prominent Swiss mobility club offering roadside assistance and a variety of member benefits tailored to mobility needs. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand presence, targeting members and mobility service users in Switzerland. The technical infrastructure includes modern consent management via Usercentrics, performance monitoring with AppDynamics, and integration of multiple analytics and advertising tools. The site is built on Weblication® CMS and employs HTTPS, ensuring secure communications. Security posture is solid but could be enhanced by implementing security headers and publishing explicit privacy and security policies. Overall, the website is functional, well-branded, and trustworthy, though it lacks some compliance documentation and direct contact details in the visible content.

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

3 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 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 Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  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

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

TCS holds a strong market position as a large, established transportation sector entity in Switzerland. Its business model revolves around membership services, roadside assistance, and exclusive offers, targeting a broad audience of mobility users. The website's integration with multiple advertising and analytics platforms indicates active marketing and user engagement strategies. The absence of visible contact information and formal privacy/terms pages suggests areas for improvement in transparency and customer support. No suspicious or privacy-protected WHOIS data enhances trust in the domain's legitimacy.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses advanced monitoring tools, indicating a mature security approach. However, the lack of security headers and absence of published security policies or incident response contacts represent gaps. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. The use of consent management aligns with GDPR requirements, but the missing privacy policy reduces compliance confidence. Overall, the security posture is good but could be strengthened with additional best practices and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages accessible from the homepage.
  2. Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Add a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure policy to facilitate responsible reporting.
  4. Include clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for customer and security inquiries.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern CMS (Weblication®) and integrates multiple third-party services including Usercentrics for consent management, AppDynamics for performance monitoring, and Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and good SEO metadata. Performance is moderate, with room for optimization. No deprecated or vulnerable libraries were detected in the scripts loaded. The technical setup supports a professional digital presence but could benefit from improved security headers and enhanced accessibility 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.
