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

Webling.ch is a well-established Swiss online software provider specializing in club and association management. The company offers a comprehensive SaaS platform that covers membership management, accounting, event organization, and communication tools tailored for clubs of all sizes. With over 15 years of experience and a strong customer base exceeding 8000 clubs, Webling positions itself as a trusted and user-friendly solution in the non-profit sector. The website reflects a professional and modern digital presence, leveraging advanced web technologies such as Nuxt.js and Vue.js, ensuring fast performance and excellent mobile responsiveness. Security practices are robust, including HTTPS enforcement, Swiss-based hosting, daily backups, and compliance with GDPR and Swiss data protection laws. However, the site lacks visible cookie consent mechanisms and explicit terms of service or security incident response contacts, which are areas for improvement. Overall, Webling demonstrates a mature technical infrastructure and a strong market position with high trust indicators.

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. 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

Webling operates in the non-profit software sector, targeting clubs and associations primarily in Switzerland and German-speaking countries. Its competitive advantage lies in its all-in-one cloud-based platform, transparent pricing with all features included, and a customer-centric approach with in-house development and personalized support. The business model is subscription-based SaaS, with pricing scaled by club size but inclusive of all features. The company maintains a strong partnership ecosystem with related domains for support and regional markets. Growth indicators include a large user base and consistent updates every two weeks. Strategic observations suggest focusing on expanding privacy compliance features and enhancing visible trust signals on the main website.

Security posture

Webling exhibits a solid security posture with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, encrypted data transmission, and Swiss data hosting that aligns with strict privacy regulations. Daily backups and GDPR compliance are explicitly stated, reinforcing data protection commitments. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. However, the absence of a published vulnerability disclosure policy and explicit incident response contacts may limit transparency in security incident handling. The use of third-party analytics and tracking tools like Crazy Egg and Matomo is balanced with privacy considerations but would benefit from a visible cookie consent mechanism to fully comply with EU regulations.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a clear and user-friendly cookie consent banner to comply with EU cookie laws and enhance privacy transparency.
  2. Publish a comprehensive terms of service page accessible from the main navigation or footer.
  3. Provide explicit security incident response contact information, such as a dedicated security@ or abuse@ email address.
  4. Consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Enhance visible contact information on the main website to improve user trust and business credibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern JavaScript framework stack using Nuxt.js and Vue.js, combined with Tailwind CSS for styling. This ensures a responsive, fast-loading, and accessible user experience across devices. The hosting appears to be Swiss-based, supporting data sovereignty and privacy compliance. The site integrates third-party analytics and heatmap tools for user behavior insights. SEO and accessibility best practices are well implemented, with proper meta tags, structured content, and keyboard navigability. Technical risks are minimal, with no outdated or vulnerable libraries detected. Opportunities exist to improve privacy compliance features and expand visible trust signals to users.
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.
