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

3 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 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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

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

Eimskip holds a strong market position as a key player in the transportation sector in Iceland and the North Atlantic. Their business model focuses on integrated logistics solutions, combining sea freight with inland trucking and warehousing. The company targets commercial clients requiring reliable shipping and logistics services, as well as individuals needing household goods transport. The website's multilingual and regional office links suggest a broad international footprint. The presence of detailed service pages, pricing calculators, and shipment tracking tools indicates a customer-centric approach. Partnerships with regional shipping companies and subsidiaries enhance their service network. The company appears to be well-established with consistent branding and trust signals such as official registration numbers and comprehensive policies.

Security posture

The website exhibits a good security posture with HTTPS enabled and no exposed sensitive data in the HTML content. Use of third-party consent management and live chat widgets is handled via reputable providers. However, the absence of explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a minor gap. No incident response or security policy pages were found, which could be improved to enhance transparency and readiness. No vulnerabilities or suspicious domains were detected. Overall, the site is secure for typical business operations but could benefit from enhanced security header implementation and published security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to avoid vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance accessibility features and conduct periodic SEO audits to maintain high standards.
  5. Consider adding structured data (JSON-LD) for organization and contact information to improve search engine visibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses modern JavaScript libraries including Hyperscript and htmx for dynamic content, Google Tag Manager for analytics, and CookieHub for cookie consent management. The presence of a service worker indicates progressive web app capabilities. The site is mobile optimized with responsive images and accessible navigation. Performance appears moderate with deferred script loading and preloading of fonts. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting provider details are not evident from the HTML. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and user-friendly experience with room for optimization in performance and security headers.
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.
