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

Fiken.no is a Norwegian accounting software provider targeting small business owners and self-employed individuals. Founded in 2015, it offers a subscription-based SaaS platform that simplifies bookkeeping, invoicing, and tax reporting. The website is professionally designed using modern technologies such as Next.js and React, hosted on Vercel, and optimized for mobile devices. It employs comprehensive cookie consent mechanisms and integrates multiple third-party analytics and marketing tools, including Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and Intercom. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced and appropriate cookie management, although explicit privacy and terms of service pages are not detected in the provided content. The domain WHOIS data aligns well with the business claims, supporting legitimacy.

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 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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

Fiken operates in the finance sector, focusing on the Norwegian market with a medium-sized business profile. Its competitive advantage lies in offering an easy-to-use accounting solution tailored for small businesses, with a free trial to attract users. The business model is subscription-based SaaS, generating revenue from recurring payments. The company leverages partnerships with major advertising platforms and uses advanced tracking for marketing optimization. Growth indicators include a well-maintained website with modern infrastructure and active use of analytics. No direct contact or detailed corporate information is visible, which could be improved to enhance trust and customer engagement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enabled, use of cookie consent tools, and no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. Security headers are likely implemented, and the site avoids common pitfalls such as unencrypted data transmission. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms limits transparency. Compliance with GDPR is partially indicated by cookie consent but lacks a formal privacy policy. Incident response readiness and security culture indicators are not evident from the content. Overall, the site is secure but could improve compliance documentation and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page accessible from the website footer or main navigation.
  2. Add a terms of service page detailing user agreements and legal disclaimers.
  3. Provide clear contact information including email and phone for customer support and data protection inquiries.
  4. Implement a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  5. Enhance transparency by publishing a security policy and incident response procedures.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern React/Next.js stack, hosted on Vercel, ensuring fast performance and scalability. It uses Cookiebot for cookie management and integrates Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with proper meta tags for SEO. No CMS is detected, indicating a custom or framework-based solution. The technical infrastructure is robust with no signs of technical debt or outdated libraries. Opportunities exist to improve documentation and user engagement features such as contact forms and policy pages.
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.
