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

5 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 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

Hemsö occupies a strong market position as a key player in Sweden's social infrastructure real estate sector. Their competitive advantage lies in their long-term sustainable approach and close collaboration with the public sector. The company targets municipalities, public institutions, and investors interested in stable, socially responsible property investments. Revenue streams are primarily from property leasing and development projects. The website's multi-regional domains indicate a broad geographic footprint in Northern Europe. Growth indicators include active project portfolios and sustainability reporting. Partnerships with Cookiebot and Matomo reflect a mature approach to privacy and analytics. The company maintains a professional brand image with consistent messaging and clear calls to action for investors, tenants, and job seekers.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security maturity level with enforced HTTPS and a robust cookie consent mechanism that blocks non-essential cookies until consent is given. Use of Matomo analytics respects user privacy by activating only after consent. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and security.txt files indicates gaps in transparency and readiness for vulnerability disclosures. The site would benefit from implementing security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection against common web threats. Overall, the security posture is strong but could be improved with formalized policies and enhanced header configurations.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy page and provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ emails.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosures.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet or exceed WCAG standards, improving inclusivity and compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with modern front-end technologies including JavaScript frameworks (likely Alpine.js or Vue.js) and Swiper.js for interactive carousels. SEO is optimized using Yoast SEO plugin, with proper meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. Performance is optimized with responsive images and lazy loading. Cookiebot manages cookie consent with blocking mode enabled, ensuring compliance with GDPR. Matomo analytics is integrated with consent-based activation, reflecting a privacy-conscious approach. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with clear navigation and well-structured content. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified from the HTML content. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a fast, secure, and user-friendly experience with room for minor security enhancements.
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.
