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

HAUD Systems AB is a specialized provider of SMS messaging security and A2P monetisation solutions targeted at Mobile Network Operators. Established in 2012 and based in Sweden, HAUD offers a suite of services including messaging monetisation, messaging security, and managed monetisation services, leveraging AI-powered tools to protect networks from fraud and maximize revenue. Their market position is that of an independent, trusted partner with a strong focus on telecom operators' needs. Technically, the website is built on the Webflow platform, utilizing modern web technologies such as Google Fonts, Typekit, Google Analytics, Hotjar, and Mailchimp for marketing and analytics. The site is well-optimized for performance and mobile devices, with a good SEO foundation and accessibility features, although some improvements could be made in accessibility compliance. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS, uses CSRF protection cookies, and implements a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR requirements. However, explicit security policies and incident response contact information are not publicly available, which could be improved to enhance trust and compliance. Overall, the website presents a professional and credible digital presence with a strong focus on privacy compliance and user experience. The domain registration data aligns well with the business claims, supporting legitimacy. Strategic recommendations include publishing detailed security and incident response policies, adding terms of service, and enhancing accessibility to further strengthen the 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.

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. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

  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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

  3. 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';…

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

HAUD operates in the telecommunications sector, focusing on messaging security and monetisation for mobile network operators. Their business model is B2B, offering SaaS and managed services to detect fraud, block grey routes, and optimize A2P messaging revenue. The company has a medium-sized footprint with a history dating back to 2012, indicating maturity and stability. Their competitive advantage lies in AI-powered real-time detection and comprehensive service offerings tailored to telecom operators. The website content and structure reflect a clear understanding of their target market and business goals, with a strong emphasis on security and revenue assurance. Partnership ecosystems are not explicitly detailed, but integrations with analytics and marketing tools suggest a modern digital marketing approach.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and security cookies in place. The presence of a cookie consent banner with granular controls indicates GDPR compliance efforts. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a dedicated security policy page and incident response contact channels limits transparency and preparedness visibility. The use of third-party scripts like Google Analytics and Hotjar is managed with consent mechanisms, reducing privacy risks. Overall, the security maturity is good but could benefit from enhanced documentation and incident response readiness disclosures.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page detailing security frameworks and controls.
  2. Add explicit incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and document accessibility improvements to meet WCAG standards.
  4. Create and publish a terms of service page to clarify user agreements.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Webflow CMS platform, leveraging modern web fonts and asynchronous loading of analytics and marketing scripts. Performance is optimized with CDN hosting and minimal blocking scripts. The site is mobile responsive and uses semantic HTML elements, though accessibility can be improved. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. The technical stack is modern and well-maintained, with no visible technical debt or deprecated technologies. Opportunities exist to enhance accessibility and security documentation to align with best 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.
