Low risk. 2 critical or high findings in Security headers and GDPR outside view.

Security score

77/100

Risk levelLow

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

Vága Floghavn operates the main airport in the Faroe Islands, providing essential airport services including flight schedules, parking, duty-free shopping, and passenger amenities. The website targets travelers, airlines, and visitors, offering clear and relevant information about airport operations and services. The business is positioned as the primary transportation hub in the region with a small organizational size and focused service offerings. Technically, the website uses legacy JavaScript frameworks such as AngularJS 1.5.7 and jQuery 1.11.3, indicating a need for modernization to improve security and performance. The site is moderately optimized for mobile devices and SEO, with good navigation and content quality. However, no advanced CMS or hosting details are evident. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS but lacks visible security headers and employs outdated libraries that may expose vulnerabilities. There is no explicit security or incident response policy published, and no dedicated security contact channels are provided. Privacy compliance is basic, with a privacy policy and cookie policy present but no active consent mechanism. Overall, the website is functional and professional but would benefit from technical and security upgrades to enhance trust and compliance. Strategic improvements in security posture and privacy mechanisms are recommended to align with best practices and regulatory requirements.

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

2 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 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

Vága Floghavn holds a critical position as the sole airport operator in the Faroe Islands, serving both domestic and international travelers. Its business model revolves around airport operations, including passenger facilitation, retail (duty-free), and transportation services. The company leverages partnerships with duty-free operators and local service providers. The website reflects a focused approach to customer service with flight information, parking, and ancillary services. Growth indicators include recent news about infrastructure projects and service expansions. The absence of social media presence suggests a traditional marketing approach. The company maintains transparent contact information and a clear service portfolio, supporting credibility in its niche market.

Security posture

The current security maturity level is moderate but shows gaps that could impact business risk. The use of outdated AngularJS and jQuery versions introduces potential vulnerabilities. The absence of security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), X-Frame-Options, and HSTS reduces defense-in-depth. No visible incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies limit preparedness and transparency. Privacy compliance is partial, lacking active cookie consent mechanisms. No exposed sensitive data or credentials were detected in the HTML. Overall, the security posture requires enhancements in library updates, header implementation, and policy publication to meet modern standards and regulatory expectations.

Recommendations

  1. Update all JavaScript libraries and frameworks to supported, secure versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  2. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Deploy a cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR and other privacy regulations to improve compliance.
  4. Publish explicit security and incident response policies with dedicated contact channels for vulnerability reporting.
  5. Conduct regular security audits and penetration testing to identify and remediate potential risks proactively.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using AngularJS 1.5.7 and jQuery 1.11.3, both of which are outdated and may pose security and maintenance challenges. The HTML structure is valid with responsive design elements supporting mobile devices. Performance is moderate, with image assets served via a CDN (fae.cdn.fo) enhancing load times. No modern CMS or advanced platform detected, suggesting a custom or lightweight solution. SEO is supported by meta tags and Open Graph properties, but no JSON-LD structured data is present. Accessibility features are basic, with some ARIA or semantic enhancements recommended. Overall, the technical infrastructure is functional but would benefit from modernization and improved security practices.
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.
