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

Föreningen för utvecklingsfrågor (FUF) is a well-established Swedish non-profit organization dedicated to knowledge sharing, debate, and engagement on global development and sustainability issues. The website serves as a platform for articles, reports, events, and educational programs targeting academics, students, professionals, and organizations interested in international development. With over 50 years of history, FUF holds a strong market position in Sweden's development discourse. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern frameworks like Bootstrap and integrates various plugins for enhanced user experience, including social media feeds and sliders. Hosting is provided by Loopia AB, a reputable Swedish registrar and hosting provider. The site is mobile-optimized and demonstrates good SEO practices, although some accessibility features could be improved. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and implements basic security best practices such as cookie consent and safe external link attributes. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, and some security headers like Content Security Policy are missing. There is no visible security policy or vulnerability disclosure page, which could be areas for improvement. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and compliant with GDPR requirements, though it lacks explicit terms of service and direct contact emails or phone numbers. The domain registration is consistent with the organization's profile, enhancing legitimacy. Strategic recommendations include enabling DNSSEC, adding security headers, and publishing a security policy to strengthen security posture and user trust.

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.

Priority findings

6 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • 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

  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';…

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

FUF operates as a niche non-profit focused on global development education and advocacy in Sweden. Its competitive advantage lies in its neutrality, long history, and broad network spanning academia, government, civil society, and business. Revenue streams likely include memberships, supporters, event fees, and educational services. The target customer segments include students, young professionals, NGOs, and companies interested in sustainable development. Growth indicators include active social media presence and ongoing event programming. Partnerships with organizations like WeEffect and Svensk Drift enhance its ecosystem. The organization's operations emphasize knowledge dissemination, community engagement, and capacity building.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and basic security best practices in place. The absence of DNSSEC and some security headers represents a moderate risk, potentially exposing the domain to DNS spoofing and content injection attacks. Lack of a published security policy or incident response contact reduces transparency and preparedness. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. The site uses safe link attributes to prevent tabnabbing. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a non-profit informational site but could be improved to meet higher standards and regulatory expectations.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement a Content Security Policy (CSP) header to mitigate cross-site scripting and data injection attacks.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and vulnerability disclosure page to improve transparency and incident response readiness.
  4. Add additional security headers such as X-Content-Type-Options and Referrer-Policy for better browser security.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party plugins and scripts to avoid vulnerabilities and maintain performance.

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.
