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

VetroSwiss operates as a key organization managing glass recycling processes and fees in Switzerland, focusing on the administration of the 'vorgezogene Entsorgungsgebühr' (VEG) for glass beverage packaging. The website targets business partners involved in fee payments and compensation, providing a user-friendly customer portal and extensive informational resources about glass recycling. The organization positions itself as a central authority in the Swiss glass recycling ecosystem, emphasizing efficiency and digital transformation. Technically, the website is built on WordPress 6.6.4 with the Yoast SEO plugin, leveraging UIkit for frontend components and Matomo for privacy-respecting analytics. The site is well-structured with multi-language support (German, French, Italian), good SEO practices, and a cookie consent mechanism, reflecting a moderate to advanced digital maturity. Hosting details are not explicit but suggest a professional setup possibly involving Cubetech services. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and implements cookie consent but lacks explicit security headers and incident response information. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. The absence of a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file indicates room for improvement in transparency and security communication. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and compliant with GDPR requirements, with a strong focus on business credibility and user experience. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing security policies, and improving accessibility to further strengthen the security posture 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

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

  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

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.

Business context

Business profile

VetroSwiss holds a pivotal role in Switzerland's environmental sector, specifically in glass recycling management. Its business model is non-profit, focusing on fee collection and administration for glass packaging recycling. The organization serves a niche market of fee-paying and compensation-eligible business partners, supported by a digital customer portal. The website's multi-language approach and detailed informational content indicate a commitment to broad stakeholder engagement. The use of Matomo analytics and cookie consent reflects awareness of privacy regulations. The lack of social media presence suggests a focus on direct stakeholder communication rather than broad consumer marketing. The organization's partnerships and external links, such as the Recycling Map, enhance its service ecosystem. Overall, VetroSwiss demonstrates stable market positioning with opportunities to expand digital engagement and security transparency.

Security posture

The website exhibits a solid baseline security posture with mandatory HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms in place. The use of Matomo analytics aligns with privacy-conscious data collection practices. However, the absence of key security headers (e.g., Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options) and lack of published security policies or incident response contacts represent gaps that could be exploited or reduce stakeholder trust. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found, indicating good operational security hygiene. The site would benefit from formalizing vulnerability disclosure processes and enhancing accessibility compliance. Overall, the security maturity is moderate with clear pathways for improvement to meet higher compliance and trust standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and stakeholder trust.
  3. Develop and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Enhance website accessibility features to comply with recognized standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to minimize risks from vulnerable components.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform (version 6.6.4) with the Yoast SEO plugin for search engine optimization and UIkit for frontend UI components. It uses jQuery and a cookie notice plugin for user consent management. Analytics are handled via Matomo, a privacy-focused alternative to Google Analytics, indicating a commitment to data privacy. The site is multi-lingual (German, French, Italian) and includes structured data (JSON-LD) for enhanced SEO. Performance is moderate with responsive design for mobile devices. Hosting details are not explicit but the presence of Cubetech analytics scripts suggests professional hosting or service providers. The technical stack is well-maintained with no visible deprecated or vulnerable libraries. Opportunities exist to improve security headers and accessibility compliance to reduce technical debt and enhance robustness.
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.
