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. 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

  3. 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
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

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

transfair operates as a membership-based union representing public service employees in Switzerland, focusing on labor rights and fair compensation. Its market position is that of an essential organization within the government and non-profit sectors. The business model revolves around member services, advocacy, and labor representation. The website's integration of multiple analytics and marketing tools indicates an active approach to user engagement and outreach. The absence of direct contact information on the main page suggests that member interaction may be handled through other channels or member portals. The organization appears stable and well-established, with no indications of suspicious or fraudulent activity.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security posture with HTTPS enabled and multiple security headers implemented, which protect against common web vulnerabilities. The use of Cookiebot ensures compliance with cookie consent regulations and enhances privacy protection. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided HTML content. However, the lack of a publicly accessible security policy or incident response contact information is a gap that could be addressed to improve transparency and readiness. There is no evidence of malware, phishing, or other security threats. Overall, the security maturity is good but could benefit from enhanced documentation and disclosure.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and compliance.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosures.
  4. Enhance visibility of contact information to improve user trust and support.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack with asynchronous loading of analytics and marketing scripts, improving performance and user experience. Cookiebot is integrated for GDPR-compliant cookie management. The site includes responsive design elements and accessibility features, contributing to good mobile optimization and usability. Performance is moderate, likely influenced by multiple external scripts. No CMS or hosting provider details were explicitly detected in the HTML content. The site benefits from proper meta tags and Open Graph data for SEO and social media sharing. Technical debt appears low, but continuous monitoring of third-party dependencies is recommended to mitigate risks.
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.
