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

DCode Websolutions AS is a Norwegian small-sized professional service company specializing in web design and web development with over 10 years of experience. The company targets businesses seeking to establish or improve their online presence through custom websites and intranet solutions. Their market position is that of an established local player with a focus on quality and client satisfaction. The website reflects a professional image with clear service offerings and client references. Technically, the site uses a modern tech stack including jQuery, Cookiebot for cookie consent, Facebook Pixel, Google Analytics, LinkedIn Insight Tag, and Tawk.to for live chat support. The site is mobile optimized and provides a good user experience with clear navigation and relevant content. Security-wise, the site uses HTTPS and implements a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism, but lacks visible HTTP security headers and explicit security policies. WHOIS data is unavailable, likely due to privacy protection, which slightly reduces trust but is common for small businesses. Overall, the site demonstrates good digital maturity and compliance with privacy regulations.

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

4 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
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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

DCode operates in the technology sector providing web design and development services primarily to Norwegian businesses. Their business model is service-based, focusing on custom web solutions and intranet systems. The company leverages social media and digital marketing tools to enhance visibility and client engagement. The presence of multiple tracking and advertising technologies indicates an active marketing strategy. The company maintains a professional online presence with clear contact information and client references, supporting credibility and trust. The lack of WHOIS data suggests privacy protection measures, which is typical for small service providers. No partnerships or subsidiaries were identified from the data. The company appears to be stable with a focus on quality service delivery and client satisfaction.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security posture. HTTPS is used, ensuring encrypted communications. The implementation of Cookiebot indicates attention to privacy and consent management, aligning with GDPR requirements. However, the absence of visible HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and HSTS is a gap that could expose the site to certain web-based attacks. The site uses several third-party scripts and tracking pixels, which should be regularly audited for vulnerabilities. Forms are present but no explicit mention of CSRF tokens or input validation was found in the provided data. No security or incident response policies are publicly available, which could be improved to enhance trust and preparedness. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small web service provider but could benefit from additional hardening and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and HSTS to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response plan to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize vulnerabilities.
  4. Ensure all web forms have CSRF protection and robust input validation to prevent injection attacks.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct periodic security and privacy compliance reviews.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a combination of jQuery and modern third-party services such as Cookiebot for cookie management, Facebook Pixel, Google Analytics, and LinkedIn Insight Tag for analytics and marketing. The presence of Tawk.to chat indicates real-time customer engagement capabilities. The site is mobile responsive with good navigation clarity and SEO optimization. However, no CMS or hosting provider information was detected. Performance is moderate, likely influenced by multiple external scripts. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. The site lacks visible security headers which is a technical risk. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid for a small business 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.
