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

ALSO A/S operates a large B2B e-commerce platform focused on IT hardware, software, and services distribution primarily in Denmark and potentially broader European markets. The company supports a vast ecosystem of approximately 120,000 resellers and over 700 suppliers across more than 1,450 product categories. The website serves as a digital marketplace and information hub for these offerings, targeting IT resellers and business customers. Technically, the site uses a custom CMS (Pegasos) with modern JavaScript libraries, Bootstrap for responsive design, and integrates multiple analytics and advertising tools including Webtrekk, Google Ads, Facebook Pixel, and LinkedIn Insight Tag. User consent for cookies is managed via Usercentrics CMP, indicating attention to privacy compliance. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS enforced and no obvious exposed sensitive data, though explicit security headers are not clearly present. The WHOIS data for the domain is missing or not publicly available, which slightly reduces trust but does not contradict the professional and extensive nature of the website. Overall, the site is well-structured, professionally branded, and serves a critical role in the IT distribution market.

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

4 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 Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  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.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

ALSO A/S holds a strong market position as a major IT technology distributor and service provider in Denmark and Europe. Their business model revolves around enabling a large reseller network with access to a broad portfolio of hardware, software, and IT services. Revenue streams likely include product sales, digital services, cloud marketplace commissions, financial services, and logistics. The company maintains a comprehensive partnership ecosystem with many well-known IT vendors such as HP, Dell, HPE, Lenovo, and others, as evidenced by the extensive microsite navigation structure. Growth indicators include digital transformation initiatives like cloud marketplace and IoT platforms. The company targets B2B customers, primarily IT resellers and business clients, leveraging a multi-channel approach combining e-commerce, digital services, and physical logistics.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with mandatory HTTPS, cookie consent management, and no visible exposure of sensitive data. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options suggests room for improvement. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are published, which could hinder rapid response to security incidents. The extensive use of third-party tracking and advertising scripts increases the attack surface and privacy risks, though these are managed via consent mechanisms. The missing WHOIS data is a concern for domain legitimacy verification but may be due to privacy protection services. Overall, the security posture is solid but could be enhanced by publishing security policies, improving header configurations, and providing clear security contact channels.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish explicit security headers including CSP, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the main site footer to improve transparency and compliance.
  3. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Provide clear contact information including security and data protection officer contacts to enhance trust and incident response readiness.
  5. Review and optimize third-party tracking scripts to minimize privacy risks and improve site performance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a custom CMS platform named Pegasos, utilizing a combination of jQuery, Bootstrap, and Modernizr for frontend functionality and responsiveness. The tech stack includes multiple JavaScript libraries for UI components, tracking, and consent management. The site loads multiple external scripts for analytics and advertising, including Webtrekk, Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, and LinkedIn Insight Tag. The presence of Usercentrics CMP indicates a modern approach to cookie consent and privacy compliance. Performance appears moderate with standard libraries and some legacy versions (e.g., jQuery 2.1.3). Mobile optimization is good due to Bootstrap usage and responsive design. Accessibility features are basic and could be improved. No CMS name is explicitly stated beyond Pegasos, which appears to be a proprietary or custom solution. Hosting provider details are not discernible from the HTML content.
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.
