Risk levelMedium

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

The website apotea.se is currently inaccessible due to a Cloudflare Turnstile security challenge page, which blocks access to the actual site content. Based on the domain WHOIS data, the domain is well-established since 2011, registered through EuroDNS S.A, and uses Cloudflare for DNS and security services. The domain status is active and not privacy protected, indicating a legitimate business presence. However, the lack of accessible content prevents detailed analysis of business operations, policies, or contact information. The site appears to be an e-commerce platform based in Sweden, likely large in size given the domain age and market presence. The technical infrastructure leverages Cloudflare's security mechanisms, which is a positive indicator for protection against automated threats but currently limits content visibility. Security posture cannot be fully assessed due to blocked content, but the use of Cloudflare suggests a baseline of security best practices. Privacy compliance and business credibility cannot be confirmed without access to policies or contact details. Overall, the site is safe in content but inaccessible for full analysis, resulting in a low AI score and recommendations to access the site post-challenge for comprehensive review.

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. 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

    • 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 Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  2. 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';…

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

Apotea.se is an established e-commerce business operating in Sweden, likely specializing in pharmaceutical or health-related products given the domain name. The domain age and stable registration suggest a mature market position with a significant customer base. The business model is presumably direct-to-consumer online retail. No direct information on partnerships, subsidiaries, or revenue streams is available due to content blocking. The use of Cloudflare indicates a focus on security and performance. Growth indicators and competitive advantages cannot be determined from the current data. Strategic observations include the importance of ensuring user access beyond security challenges to maintain customer trust and engagement.

Security posture

The website employs Cloudflare's Turnstile captcha as a security measure to prevent automated access, indicating a proactive approach to mitigating bot traffic and potential abuse. However, the lack of visible security headers or detailed security policies limits the assessment of overall security maturity. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerabilities are visible due to the blocked content. Compliance with GDPR or incident response readiness cannot be confirmed. The security culture appears to prioritize perimeter defense but would benefit from transparent policies and contact channels for security incidents. The current security score is low due to inaccessibility but the infrastructure choice is positive.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a user-friendly security challenge flow to reduce access friction and improve user experience.
  2. Publish clear and accessible privacy, cookie, and terms of service policies to enhance compliance and trust.
  3. Expose verified contact information including security incident response contacts to improve transparency.
  4. Conduct a comprehensive security header and SSL/TLS configuration review to ensure best practices.
  5. Develop a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to engage with security researchers and improve security posture.
Site observations

Technical notes

Notes

The website is hosted behind Cloudflare, utilizing their DNS and Turnstile captcha security service. The HTML content is minimal and serves only as a security challenge page, preventing access to the actual site content. No CMS or additional frameworks are detectable from the provided HTML. Performance and SEO cannot be evaluated due to content blocking. The technical stack is modern in terms of security infrastructure but lacks visible implementation details. There is an opportunity to improve accessibility and SEO by reducing challenge friction and exposing metadata and structured data on the main site.
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.
