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

Norsk entomologisk forening is a Norwegian non-profit organization dedicated to promoting interest and study of entomology. The website serves as an information hub for members and enthusiasts, offering event announcements, educational content, and membership information. The organization targets hobbyists, researchers, and the general public interested in insects in Norway. Technically, the site is built on WordPress using Elementor and related plugins, providing a modern and responsive user experience with moderate performance. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled but lacks advanced security headers and formal privacy or cookie policies, which are compliance gaps. Overall, the site is professional and trustworthy but could improve 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

10 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

  2. 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';…
  3. GDPR outside view

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

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

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.

Breach exposure

Leaked credentials and lookalike domains from OffSeq Breach. The counts are free; the detailed lists are paid add-ons.

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention entomologiskforening.no, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for entomologiskforening.no right now. New leaks arrive continuously, so monitoring on Breach alerts you if that changes.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

The organization operates as a small non-profit entity focused on education and community engagement in entomology. Its business model revolves around membership fees, events, and publications. The website reflects a stable market position within Norway's scientific and hobbyist communities. There is no evidence of commercial advertising or monetization beyond membership. The lack of detailed WHOIS data suggests privacy protection, common for non-profits. The organization maintains a clear contact email and physical address linked to the University of Oslo, enhancing credibility. Growth indicators include regular event postings and active content updates.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate, ensuring encrypted communications. However, it lacks important security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options, which could mitigate common web attacks. No vulnerability disclosures, incident response contacts, or security policies are published, limiting transparency. The absence of tracking scripts reduces privacy risks but also limits analytics capabilities. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved by implementing recommended headers, formal policies, and incident response mechanisms.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy to improve GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web vulnerabilities.
  3. Establish and disclose a vulnerability disclosure policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and security readiness.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve usability for all users, including those with disabilities.
  5. Regularly audit and update all plugins and themes to mitigate risks from outdated software.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform using Elementor page builder and several plugins such as Elementskit Lite and Swiper.js for UI components. The site loads moderate amounts of CSS and JS assets, with some lazy loading for images. Mobile optimization is good, and the site uses Google Fonts for typography. No major technical errors or broken elements were detected. However, SEO and accessibility could be improved by adding meta descriptions, alt attributes, and ARIA roles. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. Performance is moderate, with potential for optimization in asset delivery and caching.
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.
