Risk levelHigh

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

websiteria.ch is a Swiss-based small technology service provider specializing in website creation, revision, and hosting services, complemented by Joomla! refresher courses and data protection consulting. The website is professionally designed with consistent branding and clear navigation, targeting individuals and businesses seeking reliable web services in Switzerland. The technical infrastructure relies on classic web technologies including jQuery and custom JavaScript, with moderate performance and basic mobile optimization. Security posture is adequate with SSL usage and cookie consent mechanisms, but could be improved by updating outdated libraries and implementing security headers. Overall, the site is trustworthy and compliant with GDPR, though contact information is not explicitly visible on the homepage HTML. Strategic improvements in security and transparency would enhance the business's digital maturity and customer trust.

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

8 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: PostgreSQL

      Port 5432 (PostgreSQL) is publicly accessible - PostgreSQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to PostgreSQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  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

  3. 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

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 · found on this site
  • 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

websiteria operates in the niche Swiss market for web development and hosting, leveraging a service-based business model focused on small to medium clients. Their competitive advantage lies in combining website services with educational offerings like Joomla! courses and data protection advice. The partnership with supcura (IFAS) suggests a collaborative ecosystem. Revenue streams likely include service fees for website projects, hosting subscriptions, and course enrollments. The company maintains a professional online presence with clear service descriptions and trust signals such as SSL and privacy policies. Growth potential exists through expanding digital marketing and enhancing technical infrastructure.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and cookie consent implemented, supporting GDPR compliance. However, the use of an outdated jQuery version introduces potential vulnerabilities, and the absence of security headers reduces defense-in-depth. No explicit security policies or incident response contacts are published, which limits transparency and preparedness. There is no evidence of vulnerability disclosure or security certifications. To improve, websiteria should update third-party libraries, implement recommended HTTP security headers, and publish clear security and incident response policies to strengthen trust and resilience.

Recommendations

  1. Update jQuery and other JavaScript libraries to current supported versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  2. Implement HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Publish explicit security policies and incident response contact information on the website.
  4. Enhance mobile optimization and accessibility to improve user experience and compliance.
  5. Increase transparency by adding clear company contact details on the homepage or contact page.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a traditional web stack with HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript libraries including jQuery 1.10.2. It employs licensed web fonts and SVG graphics for branding. Performance is moderate with room for improvement in mobile responsiveness and accessibility. No modern frameworks or CMS are explicitly detected on the homepage, though Joomla! is referenced in course offerings. External dependencies include Google-hosted jQuery and MyFonts for typography. No analytics or tracking scripts were found, indicating minimal user tracking. The site lacks advanced SEO and accessibility features but maintains a clean and professional structure.
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.
