Risk levelMedium

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

Tocco AG is a Swiss company specializing in modular ERP software solutions tailored for education, non-profit organizations, associations, and social institutions. With over 20 years of experience, Tocco offers cloud-based SaaS products with data hosting and operations based in Switzerland, targeting primarily Swiss educational and NPO sectors. The company maintains a professional online presence with clear business information, customer references, and active social media channels. Technically, the website uses a custom CMS framework with JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and js-cookie, and integrates Google Tag Manager and AddThis for analytics and sharing. However, the site lacks a valid SSL/TLS certificate and does not serve content over HTTPS, which is a critical security gap. Security headers are present but the SSL configuration is insufficient, exposing the site to potential risks. Privacy and cookie policies are implemented with consent mechanisms, indicating good privacy compliance. Overall, the website is professional and content-rich but requires urgent improvements in SSL/TLS deployment to enhance security and trust.

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

4 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

    • 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

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

Tocco AG holds a strong market position in the Swiss education and NPO software sector, offering integrated ERP solutions that streamline administration and communication. Their SaaS business model with cloud hosting in Switzerland appeals to organizations requiring data sovereignty. The company demonstrates growth through recent product releases and leadership appointments. Partnerships with Microsoft 365 Outlook and Brevo for communication enhancements indicate a collaborative ecosystem. The website content and blog reflect active engagement with customers and industry developments. The company targets medium-sized organizations and emphasizes Swiss data protection standards, which is a competitive advantage in the region.

Security posture

The current security posture of the website is weak due to the absence of a valid SSL certificate and lack of HTTPS support, which is a critical vulnerability. While security headers such as X-Content-Type-Options, X-XSS-Protection, Referrer-Policy, and a report-only Content Security Policy are implemented, the lack of TLS protocols and strong cipher suites severely undermines transport security. The site uses secure cookie attributes but does not enable OCSP stapling or session resumption, limiting performance and security. No explicit security or incident response policies are published, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files are found. The domain's DNS records are well configured with SPF and DMARC policies, reducing email spoofing risks. Immediate remediation of SSL/TLS issues is essential to protect user data and maintain trust.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Enable modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 or TLS 1.3) and configure strong cipher suites.
  3. Enforce HSTS with includeSubDomains and preload directives to prevent protocol downgrade attacks.
  4. Enable OCSP stapling and session resumption to improve security and performance.
  5. Transition Content Security Policy from report-only to enforce mode after thorough testing.
  6. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency.
  7. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks.
  8. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a custom CMS framework named 'Tocco Business Framework' and uses nginx as the web server. JavaScript libraries include jQuery and js-cookie, with Google Tag Manager and AddThis integrated for analytics and social sharing. DNS records are properly configured with A, AAAA, MX, NS, TXT, SPF, and DMARC records, indicating good email security posture. However, the SSL/TLS configuration is critically lacking, with no valid certificate and no TLS protocols enabled, resulting in HTTP-only access. Performance metrics are not available, but the site includes responsive design and mobile optimization. The site uses meta tags and Open Graph tags effectively for SEO and social media sharing. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but requires urgent SSL/TLS improvements to meet modern security standards.
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.
