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

TouristDataShop AG operates as a specialized provider of digital tourism data and booking solutions in Switzerland, primarily focusing on the Holidu Smart Destination platform. The company targets destinations, cities, and accommodation providers, offering services including sales, support, shared services, and helpdesk functions. Their market position is that of a niche player within the Swiss tourism technology sector, leveraging partnerships and integrations to enhance their offerings. Technically, the website is built on the Contao CMS platform, utilizing modern web technologies such as jQuery and Google Tag Manager for analytics and tracking. The site is mobile-optimized with good navigation and content quality, though some accessibility features could be improved. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and no visible vulnerabilities, but lacks advanced security headers and explicit incident response policies. Privacy compliance is partial, with a privacy policy present but no cookie consent mechanism detected. Overall, the website reflects a professional and trustworthy business presence with room for enhancements in security and privacy transparency.

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 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

  4. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

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

The company maintains a focused business model serving the tourism sector in Switzerland, providing digital distribution and support services for accommodation and experience providers. Their competitive advantage lies in their specialization and partnership with Holidu Smart Destination, enabling them to offer integrated solutions. Revenue streams likely include service contracts, support fees, and shared service offerings. The target customers are tourism destinations, cities, and hospitality providers seeking digital booking and data management solutions. The presence of multiple linked service platforms (TMANAGER, TSMART, TBASE, PRODESTINATION) indicates a broader ecosystem partnership, enhancing their service portfolio. Growth indicators include active news updates and system status monitoring, reflecting operational maturity and customer engagement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to strong security posture with mandatory HTTPS and no exposed sensitive data. The use of Google Tag Manager is implemented asynchronously, reducing performance impact. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represents a potential risk vector. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are visible, which could hinder rapid response to security incidents. GDPR compliance is partially addressed with a privacy policy but lacks cookie consent mechanisms, which may expose the company to regulatory risks. Overall, the security maturity is adequate for the business size but would benefit from formalized policies and enhanced technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a cookie consent banner to ensure GDPR compliance and user transparency.
  2. Add security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to strengthen defense against common web attacks.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve trust and readiness.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate risks from external libraries.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve usability for all users and comply with standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Contao Open Source CMS, leveraging jQuery and Owl Carousel for UI components, and integrates Google Tag Manager for analytics. The presence of a YouTube background video player adds dynamic content but may impact load times moderately. DNS prefetching for Google Fonts and Tag Manager is used to optimize performance. The site is mobile responsive with good navigation clarity and SEO meta tags including Open Graph for social sharing. However, no advanced hosting provider details or CDN usage were detected. Performance is moderate, with opportunities to optimize media delivery and reduce script load. The technical stack is modern but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and accessibility improvements.
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.
