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

7 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  2. 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';…

  3. 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

The platform holds a strong niche position in the Swiss public administration job market, leveraging the parent company jobchannel ag's infrastructure and partnerships such as with kununu for employer reviews. Its business model centers on job advertisement placements, subscription services, and value-added content like salary information and career advice. The target audience includes professionals and job seekers in the Swiss public sector. The site demonstrates consistent branding and content quality, supporting a medium-sized operation with a clear focus on government sector employment. The partnership ecosystem enhances credibility and user engagement.

Security posture

The website maintains a good security posture with enforced HTTPS, secure form handling, and a cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR. However, it lacks explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HSTS, and X-Frame-Options which could further harden the site against common web attacks. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure information are not publicly available, which is a potential area for improvement. Overall, the security maturity is solid but could benefit from enhanced transparency and additional technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency.
  2. Add security headers like CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to strengthen protection against web attacks.
  3. Consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance data protection officer contact visibility if applicable to improve GDPR compliance.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack with JavaScript, jQuery, Bootstrap, and integrates Google Tag Manager and Analytics for tracking. The site is mobile responsive and accessible with semantic HTML and ARIA landmarks. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts. The platform appears custom-built or based on jobchannel's proprietary system rather than a common CMS. There is no explicit hosting provider identified. SEO is well addressed with meta tags, canonical links, and structured data for job listings. Technical risks are minimal but could be reduced by adding security headers and improving incident response readiness.
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.
