Risk levelHigh

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

Honey Design is a Stockholm-based creative agency specializing in design services such as packaging, film, typography, identity, advertising, and web design. The website showcases a comprehensive portfolio of projects, targeting businesses seeking professional design solutions. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with common plugins like Contact Form 7 and Jetpack, and includes interactive elements such as social sharing and a contact form. However, the Google Maps integration is broken due to missing API credentials, and there is no visible HTTPS enforcement or security headers, which are critical for secure user interactions. Privacy and cookie policies are absent, indicating compliance gaps. Overall, the site presents a professional image but requires improvements in security and privacy compliance to enhance trust and protect user data.

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

12 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

    • 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"

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

The company operates as a small, specialized design agency with a clear focus on creative services. Their portfolio indicates a well-established presence in the Swedish market, serving clients in various sectors through branding and design projects. The business model is service-oriented, relying on client engagements and project delivery. The website's content and structure support client acquisition and brand promotion. There is no evidence of e-commerce or direct sales. The absence of privacy and security policies may affect client confidence, especially in regulated markets. The company could benefit from formalizing compliance and security practices to strengthen market position and client trust.

Security posture

The website currently lacks key security features such as HTTPS enforcement confirmation and security headers, which are essential for protecting data in transit and mitigating common web vulnerabilities. The broken Google Maps API integration suggests misconfiguration and potential exposure of API keys if not properly managed. The contact form uses a reputable plugin with validation, but no explicit anti-spam or security measures are evident. There is no published security policy or incident response information, which limits transparency and preparedness. These gaps represent moderate security risks that should be addressed to safeguard the website and its users.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTPS with a valid SSL/TLS certificate and enforce secure connections site-wide.
  2. Add essential security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  3. Fix Google Maps API key configuration and ensure billing is properly set up to avoid service disruption.
  4. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to comply with GDPR and inform users.
  5. Establish and communicate a security policy and incident response plan to enhance trust and readiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 6.7.2 using the Kabuto theme and several plugins including Contact Form 7, Jetpack, Responsive Lightbox, and Mappress Google Maps. It uses jQuery and Isotope for interactive UI elements. Fonts are loaded from Google Fonts (Roboto and Open Sans). The site includes social sharing features and a likes widget powered by Jetpack. Performance appears moderate with standard scripts and CSS. Mobile responsiveness is good, supported by media queries and fluid layouts. Accessibility is basic with some semantic HTML but lacks advanced ARIA or accessibility features. SEO is basic with meta tags and Open Graph tags but no structured data like JSON-LD. The Google Maps integration is broken due to missing API key or billing issues, impacting user experience.
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.
