Risk levelMedium

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

The website tott.ch serves as an online presence for Thomas Ott, a Swiss comic artist and cartoonist. The site primarily functions as a portfolio or promotional platform showcasing his artistic work. The content is minimal on the main domain and is delivered via a frameset loading content from an external domain (trinity.ch). The business model is focused on artist promotion and engagement with fans and art enthusiasts. The site targets a niche audience interested in comics and graphic art, with a small-scale operation based in Switzerland. From a technical perspective, the website uses a legacy frameset structure, which is outdated and limits mobile optimization and accessibility. There is no evidence of modern CMS or frameworks, and no analytics or tracking scripts were detected. The hosting appears to be provided by trinity.ch. SEO and accessibility are poor due to minimal content and lack of meta descriptions or structured data. Security posture is weak, with no visible security headers or policies, and no HTTPS confirmation in the provided data. There are no privacy, cookie, or terms of service policies, and no contact or incident response information. The WHOIS data is consistent with the website's Swiss artist identity, indicating legitimacy. Overall, the site lacks modern security and privacy compliance features, which could expose it to risks and reduce user trust. Recommendations include implementing HTTPS, adding privacy and cookie policies, improving mobile responsiveness and accessibility, and providing clear contact and incident response information to enhance trust and compliance.

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

8 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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 Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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

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 website represents a niche artist portfolio for Thomas Ott, a Swiss comic artist. The market positioning is focused on art enthusiasts and fans of graphic novels and cartoons. The business model is primarily promotional, likely supporting sales of artwork or books through external channels. There is no direct e-commerce or transactional functionality detected. Revenue streams may include art sales, exhibitions, or licensing. The partnership ecosystem is minimal, with only a hosting provider domain linked. Growth indicators and strategic partnerships are not evident from the data. The site serves as a digital identity rather than a commercial platform.

Security posture

The security maturity level of the website is low. There is no evidence of HTTPS enforcement or security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options. No privacy or cookie policies are present, indicating non-compliance with GDPR and related regulations. The absence of contact or incident response channels suggests limited readiness for security incidents. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided HTML, but the legacy frameset approach and lack of modern security controls present potential risks. The site would benefit from adopting basic security best practices and compliance measures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate to secure user connections.
  2. Add comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to comply with GDPR and inform users.
  3. Replace frameset with modern responsive design to improve accessibility and mobile experience.
  4. Include clear contact information and establish incident response channels (e.g., security@ or abuse@ emails).
  5. Add security headers and conduct regular security audits to identify and mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses an outdated frameset HTML structure, loading main content from an external domain (trinity.ch). No modern CMS or JavaScript frameworks are detected. Meta tags are present but lack descriptive content and structured data such as JSON-LD or Open Graph. No analytics or tracking scripts are included. The hosting provider appears to be trinity.ch. Performance is likely moderate but limited by legacy design and lack of optimization. Mobile and accessibility features are poor due to frameset usage and minimal content. SEO optimization is weak with no meaningful meta description or keywords usage beyond a large keyword list.
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.
