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

2 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 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. 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

Arte Collectum occupies a unique niche in the Nordic financial and art markets by combining impact investment principles with art asset management. Their competitive advantage lies in their focus on underrepresented artists and active lending strategy, which supports both financial returns and cultural impact. The business model leverages publicly traded fund units registered with Euroclear, appealing to institutional and private investors interested in socially responsible investments. The company maintains partnerships with galleries, museums, and exhibition venues, strengthening its market presence and credibility.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with HSTS enabled, ensuring secure communications. Cookie consent mechanisms are in place, supporting GDPR compliance. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, representing a potential area for DNS security improvement. No explicit security policies or incident response contacts are published, which could enhance transparency and trust. The absence of a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure policy limits external security engagement. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from formalized policies and DNS security enhancements.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to enhance compliance and user trust.
  3. Add a security policy page and incident response contact information to improve transparency.
  4. Implement a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  5. Enhance website accessibility features to improve inclusivity and compliance with standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Squarespace platform, leveraging its CMS capabilities and hosting infrastructure. It uses modern web technologies including Google Fonts, JavaScript libraries, and integrates third-party services such as LinkedIn Insight and Sibforms for marketing and analytics. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and SEO practices. The technical stack is stable and well-maintained, though reliance on third-party platforms limits customization. Opportunities exist to improve accessibility and implement advanced security headers.
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.
