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

TREUHAND|SUISSE is a Swiss professional association serving the treuhand (fiduciary) sector, providing a recognized quality seal for members, educational offerings, job matching services, and cybersecurity information. The website positions the organization as a trusted intermediary for SMEs and private individuals seeking reliable fiduciary partners. The site is well-structured, multilingual, and professionally designed, reflecting a mature digital presence. Technically, it is built on Drupal 11 with modern front-end technologies and integrates Google Tag Manager for analytics. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms, though formal security policies and incident response contacts are absent. Overall, the domain registration aligns with the business identity, supporting legitimacy and trustworthiness.

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

5 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 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

  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

The organization operates as an essential entity within the fiduciary services sector in Switzerland, targeting SMEs and private clients. Its business model revolves around membership services, professional education, and facilitating employment connections within the industry. The association maintains a strong market position as a quality label and knowledge hub, supported by partnerships and a clear brand identity. The presence of multilingual content and regional sections indicates a broad national reach. The website's content and structure support member engagement and public trust, with ongoing updates and news reflecting active operations.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with enforced HTTPS, cookie consent with opt-in, and no visible exposure of sensitive data. However, it lacks published security policies, incident response contacts, and advanced security headers, which are recommended best practices. The use of third-party scripts like Google Tag Manager is standard but requires ongoing monitoring for vulnerabilities. No vulnerabilities or suspicious activities were detected in the content. The absence of a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt is a minor gap in transparency and incident management readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and configure security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Consider establishing a vulnerability disclosure program or publishing a security.txt file to enhance transparency.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal 11, leveraging modern CSS frameworks (Tailwind CSS) and JavaScript libraries (jQuery). It uses Google Tag Manager for analytics and tracking. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and SEO-friendly with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Performance is moderate, with room for optimization. The hosting provider is not explicitly identified in the content. The technical implementation reflects a well-maintained platform suitable for a professional association, though some enhancements in security headers and incident response readiness are advisable.
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.
