Priority findings

1 finding rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • GDPR outside view: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

Arvopaperi holds a solid position in the Finnish financial media market, offering subscription-based content and real-time market indices. Its business model revolves around media publishing with revenue streams from subscriptions and advertising. The platform targets investors and financial professionals, leveraging partnerships within Alma Media group. The presence of multiple ad networks and tracking services indicates a monetization strategy focused on advertising and user engagement analytics.

Security posture

The website demonstrates good security practices including HTTPS enforcement and use of security headers. Consent management scripts indicate GDPR compliance efforts, though explicit policies and incident response contacts are missing. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The use of multiple third-party scripts requires ongoing monitoring to mitigate supply chain risks. Overall, the security maturity is moderate to high but could be improved with clearer policy disclosures and incident response mechanisms.

Recommendations

  1. Publish clear and accessible privacy and cookie policies linked in the website footer.
  2. Implement a visible cookie consent banner with explicit user consent mechanisms.
  3. Add a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure policy to facilitate responsible reporting.
  4. Provide explicit incident response contact information including security and abuse emails.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all users.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern React framework with deferred JavaScript loading for performance. It integrates Google Tag Manager, Abtasty for A/B testing, and multiple ad networks including AppNexus and Adform. Fonts are loaded from Google Fonts and custom font files hosted on Alma Talent domains. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and preconnect/dns-prefetch hints for performance. Hosting appears to be managed by Alma Media or associated CDN providers. Technical debt is low with good separation of concerns and modern asset management. Opportunities exist to improve SEO metadata completeness and accessibility compliance.
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.
