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

Land Vorarlberg operates an official regional government website serving the Austrian state of Vorarlberg. The site provides public information, services, and resources to citizens and visitors. It holds a strong market position as the authoritative source for regional government content and services. The website leverages a mature technical infrastructure based on Liferay Portal CMS, enhanced with modern JavaScript frameworks such as React and Metal.js, and employs self-hosted Matomo analytics for privacy-conscious user tracking. Cookie consent is managed via Cookiebot, ensuring GDPR compliance. Security posture is robust with HTTPS enforcement, security headers, and no detected vulnerabilities.

Priority findings

1 finding rated critical or high in the checks that completed. Fix these first.

  1. 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.

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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • Email security: did not complete in this scan.
  • DNS health: did not complete in this scan.
  • Network security: did not complete in this scan.
  • GDPR outside view: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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 targets residents, businesses, and visitors of Vorarlberg, providing government services and information. Its business model is public service oriented, funded by government resources. The site integrates with partners like Stripe for payment processing and Airtable for session management, indicating digital maturity and operational efficiency. The use of self-hosted analytics and cookie consent tools reflects a strong commitment to privacy and regulatory compliance. The absence of explicit contact emails or phone numbers in the HTML suggests reliance on contact forms and footer links for communication. The site’s consistent branding and comprehensive content support its authoritative market position in the government sector.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS, security headers (HSTS, X-Frame-Options, etc.), and cookie consent mechanisms. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. The use of Cookiebot with blocking mode enhances user privacy. However, the lack of a published security policy, vulnerability disclosure program, or incident response contact reduces transparency and may impact incident handling readiness. The site should consider publishing these to improve trust and compliance. Overall, the security measures align well with best practices for government websites, minimizing risk exposure.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and user guidance.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file.
  3. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  4. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance Content Security Policy headers to further restrict resource loading and reduce attack surface.

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.
