Risk levelHigh

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

ADDSEC AB is a Swedish IT security company with over 30 years of experience providing consulting, project management, installation, and maintenance services focused on IT security and network reliability. Their market position is that of a trusted local partner specializing in security solutions such as OT security, firewall solutions, zero trust access, antivirus/EDR, and cloud security. The website is professionally designed using modern technologies like Bootstrap and jQuery, with good mobile optimization and clear navigation. Google Analytics is used for visitor tracking, but privacy compliance is lacking due to missing privacy and cookie policies. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS enabled but no visible security headers or published incident response contacts. Overall, the site is functional and credible but could improve compliance and security transparency.

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

10 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.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

  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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

  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
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

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.

Add-on

Leaked records that mention addsec.se, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for addsec.se right now. New leaks arrive continuously, so monitoring on Breach alerts you if that changes.

Business context

Business profile

ADDSEC AB targets businesses in Sweden needing IT security consulting and solutions. Their business model centers on providing expert advisory and managed security services, including compliance with regulations like NIS2. The company leverages partnerships with major security vendors and cloud platforms. Their website reflects a stable, small-sized company with consistent branding and professional contact details. The presence of a LinkedIn profile supports their market presence. No parent or subsidiary companies were identified. The company appears focused on steady growth within the Swedish IT security sector.

Security posture

The website uses HTTPS, which is mandatory for secure communication. However, no advanced security headers were detected, and no vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is published, which are gaps in security transparency and readiness. No forms are present on the homepage, reducing attack surface, but also limiting direct user interaction. The use of Google Analytics introduces moderate user tracking without visible cookie consent mechanisms, which may impact GDPR compliance. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be improved by adding security headers, privacy policies, and incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options.
  3. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve transparency.
  4. Provide dedicated incident response contact information (e.g., security@addsec.se).
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern front-end stack including Bootstrap for responsive design, jQuery for scripting, Font Awesome for icons, and Animsition for page transitions. Google Analytics is integrated for visitor tracking. The site loads with moderate performance and good mobile optimization. No CMS or hosting provider details were detected. The HTML is well structured with proper meta tags and Open Graph data for SEO. However, no advanced security headers were found, and no forms are present on the homepage. The technical implementation is solid but could benefit from improved security and privacy features.
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.
