Risk levelHigh

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

Communique is a Danish language media blog focused on providing inspiration and content related to communication and lifestyle topics. The website operates on a WordPress platform with a moderate technical infrastructure including common plugins such as Yoast SEO and jQuery. The site is small in scale and targets Danish-speaking audiences interested in communication insights and related content. While the website uses HTTPS and has a privacy policy page, it lacks a cookie consent mechanism and explicit GDPR compliance indicators. Contact information is limited to a contact page form without visible emails or phone numbers. Security posture is moderate with no visible security headers or vulnerability disclosure policies. Overall, the site is functional and professional but could improve in privacy compliance and security best practices.

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

11 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

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

  2. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  3. 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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

  4. 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

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

The website serves as a content publishing platform with a business model likely based on advertising and affiliate marketing. It targets a niche audience interested in communication and lifestyle topics within Denmark. The site shows consistent branding and regular content updates, indicating active maintenance. Partnerships with linkbuilding.dk and nordskovmedia.dk suggest some collaboration within the digital marketing ecosystem. The absence of detailed company registration or VAT information limits deeper business intelligence insights. The site is positioned as a small media entity with potential for growth through enhanced content and marketing strategies.

Security posture

The security maturity of the website is basic to moderate. HTTPS is properly implemented, ensuring encrypted communication. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. No incident response or security policy information is provided, which may hinder rapid response to security events. The absence of a cookie consent mechanism and GDPR compliance statements indicates privacy compliance gaps. No known vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. To improve security posture, the site should implement recommended headers, privacy controls, and formal security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive cookie consent and tracking transparency to comply with GDPR.
  2. Add security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information.
  4. Regularly update WordPress core and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve transparency and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using standard technologies such as PHP, jQuery, and CSS3. It employs the Yoast SEO plugin for search engine optimization and includes social media sharing plugins. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and moderate performance. No advanced frameworks or hosting provider details were identified. The technical implementation is solid but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and privacy compliance tools. There is no evidence of advanced analytics or tracking services, indicating minimal user tracking. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the site's content goals but has room for modernization and security enhancements.
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.
