Security score

76/100

Risk levelLow

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

Båstadgruppen is a well-established Nordic supplier specializing in workwear, safety shoes, and occupational protective equipment. With a history dating back to 1907, the company serves professional and business customers across Europe, offering durable and innovative products. Their market position is strong within the Nordic region, supported by a comprehensive product catalog and multiple brand partnerships. Technically, the website is built on modern frameworks such as React and Material-UI, hosted behind Cloudflare, and incorporates advanced analytics and consent management tools, reflecting a mature digital infrastructure. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS, employs security headers, and integrates cookie consent mechanisms, though it lacks a public security policy or vulnerability disclosure page. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and user-friendly, but the absence of WHOIS data for the domain introduces some uncertainty regarding domain registration legitimacy.

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 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

  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 SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

Båstadgruppen operates primarily in the retail and manufacturing sectors, focusing on supplying workwear and safety equipment to businesses and professionals. Their business model combines B2B and B2C sales through retailers and direct channels. The company leverages partnerships with multiple brands and maintains a strong online presence with detailed product information and marketing materials. Growth indicators include new product launches and a broad geographic reach across Nordic and European markets. The company emphasizes sustainability and compliance, as evidenced by their EU Declaration of Conformity and certificates. Their digital ecosystem includes integrations with marketing and analytics platforms, supporting data-driven decision-making and customer engagement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security posture with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and cookie consent management. Use of Microsoft Application Insights and Google Tag Manager indicates active monitoring and analytics. However, the absence of a dedicated security policy, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms suggests room for improvement in transparency and incident readiness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. The missing WHOIS data for the domain is a concern from a trust perspective but does not directly impact the website's technical security. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be enhanced by publishing security policies and establishing clear incident response channels.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and compliance.
  2. Implement a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  3. Provide incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and analytics tools to mitigate risks.
  5. Investigate and resolve the missing WHOIS data to improve domain registration trust.

No CMS like WordPress or Drupal was detected, indicating a custom or proprietary content management solution.

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.
