Etisk Handel Norge operates as Norway's leading network of businesses, organizations, and public entities committed to promoting sustainable and ethical supply chains. Established in 2001, the organization provides membership benefits, training, certification guidance, and project collaboration to ensure responsible international trade practices that respect human and labor rights as well as environmental stewardship. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand presence targeting Nordic stakeholders interested in sustainability and corporate responsibility. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using Elementor and several Jet plugins, supported by modern JavaScript libraries and tracking tools such as Google Tag Manager, Microsoft Clarity, and Facebook Pixel. The site is mobile-optimized with good SEO practices and moderate performance. Hosting appears to leverage CDN services for optimization. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS with a strong SSL configuration and uses standard security practices, though explicit security headers and policies are not fully implemented. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. Privacy compliance is partial, with a cookie consent mechanism present but no explicit privacy or terms of service pages found in the analyzed content. Overall, Etisk Handel Norge's website demonstrates a mature digital presence with strong business credibility and a solid security posture. Enhancements in privacy documentation and security policy transparency would further strengthen trust and compliance.

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

8 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. 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

    • 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

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

Etisk Handel Norge holds a prominent position as a non-profit network facilitating sustainable trade practices in Norway and the Nordic region. Its business model centers on membership services, offering resources and certifications to companies and organizations aiming to improve supply chain ethics. The organization benefits from a well-established reputation since 2001, supported by active social media engagement and partnerships. Revenue likely derives from membership fees and service offerings. The website content and structure support clear communication of benefits and obligations to members, fostering a collaborative ecosystem focused on ethical commerce.

Security posture

The website exhibits a good security maturity level with enforced HTTPS and no visible exposure of sensitive information. However, the absence of comprehensive security headers and a public security policy or incident response contact limits transparency. No vulnerability disclosures or security.txt files were found, indicating room for improvement in vulnerability management and communication. The use of third-party tracking and advertising scripts is balanced with a cookie consent mechanism, though privacy policy documentation is lacking. Overall, the security posture is solid but could benefit from enhanced policy disclosures and header implementations.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages to improve compliance and user trust.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen defense-in-depth.
  3. Create and maintain a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting and incident management.
  4. Provide explicit incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher standards and broaden user inclusivity.

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.
