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

Dynea AS is a Norwegian-based manufacturer specializing in wood adhesives and related chemical solutions, serving primarily the European market with additional sales in Asia, Africa, and the Americas. The company offers a broad portfolio of products including amino-based resins, polyurethanes, emulsion polymers, and hot melt adhesives, complemented by services such as consulting, tank cleaning, and toll production. Established in 1947, Dynea maintains a strong market position as a leader in the European wood adhesives sector with multiple production sites and subsidiaries. Technically, the website employs modern front-end technologies such as Bootstrap, AOS, and Swiper, providing a good user experience with responsive design and clear navigation. However, the site lacks HTTPS support and a valid SSL certificate, which critically undermines its security posture. The absence of cookie consent mechanisms and limited privacy compliance features further highlight areas for improvement. From a security perspective, the site shows no evidence of common vulnerabilities like Heartbleed or POODLE but suffers from the lack of encryption and security headers. The WHOIS data confirms the legitimacy and consistency of the domain registration with the business claims, supporting trustworthiness despite technical security shortcomings. Overall, Dynea's website reflects a professional and established business with solid content and branding but requires urgent security enhancements to protect user data and comply with modern web security standards.

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

7 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

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

  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.

    • 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

  3. 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';…

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

Dynea AS operates in the manufacturing sector with a focus on wood adhesives and chemical solutions, targeting wood processing industries and industrial coatings markets. The company benefits from a diversified product portfolio and a broad geographic footprint across Europe and beyond. Its business model combines product manufacturing with value-added services such as consulting and regulatory compliance support. Revenue streams are primarily from product sales and service contracts. Dynea's competitive advantage lies in its chemical expertise, innovation, and sustainability focus. The company maintains strategic partnerships, including with dynoadd.com, enhancing its market reach. Growth indicators include a stable turnover and a workforce of approximately 220 professionals. The company’s transparency and sustainability policies reflect a commitment to responsible business practices.

Security posture

Dynea's current security maturity is low due to the absence of HTTPS and valid SSL certificates, exposing users to potential data interception risks. While no critical vulnerabilities like Heartbleed or POODLE are detected, the lack of security headers and encryption is a significant gap. Privacy compliance is partial, with a comprehensive privacy policy present but no cookie consent mechanism. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure information are not publicly available, indicating limited readiness for security incidents. The security culture is implied through published policies but lacks visible technical enforcement. Overall, the security posture requires immediate improvements to meet industry best practices and regulatory requirements such as GDPR and NIS2.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a valid SSL/TLS certificate and enforce HTTPS across the entire website to secure data transmission.
  2. Enable HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) to prevent protocol downgrade attacks and ensure secure connections.
  3. Configure DNSSEC and CAA records to enhance DNS security and control certificate issuance.
  4. Add comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options.
  5. Introduce a cookie consent banner and update privacy practices to fully comply with GDPR requirements.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern front-end technologies such as Bootstrap for responsive design, AOS for animations, and Swiper for interactive sliders, contributing to a good user experience. The site is hosted on servers managed by iplace.se, with DNS records properly configured but lacking DNSSEC and CAA. Performance metrics are unavailable, but the site structure and resource usage suggest moderate performance. No CMS is detected, indicating a custom or static site approach. The absence of HTTPS and security best practices represents a critical technical debt. Opportunities exist to modernize security infrastructure, improve SEO and accessibility, and implement analytics for better user insights.
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.
