House Of Builders · Real Estate · Norway

Medium risk. 4 critical or high findings in Security headers and SSL/TLS.

Security score

69/100

Risk levelMedium

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

House Of Builders operates as an innovative showroom and meeting place within the Norwegian construction industry, targeting professionals and companies in this sector. The website presents a professional image with good SEO and structured data, reflecting a small but focused business established in 2017. The technical infrastructure is based on WordPress, utilizing common libraries and plugins such as jQuery, Bootstrap, FontAwesome, and Cookiebot for cookie consent management. Google Analytics is employed for visitor tracking, indicating moderate user tracking levels. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented, though the absence of a published privacy policy and terms of service pages represents compliance gaps. No WAF or blocking mechanisms were detected, and no suspicious or malicious content was found.

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. 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';…

  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.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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 positions itself as a niche player in the Norwegian construction sector, offering a physical showroom and networking platform for industry firms. Its business model revolves around facilitating collaboration and showcasing industry partners. The website content and metadata emphasize this focus, targeting construction professionals. The lack of detailed contact information and formal policies suggests room for maturity in business communications. The use of common web technologies and third-party services like Google Analytics and Cookiebot reflects a standard digital presence. No direct partnerships or subsidiaries were identified from the domain or content analysis.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms in place. Security headers are likely present though not fully confirmed in the data. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates limited transparency in security governance. The site would benefit from publishing these documents to enhance trust and compliance, especially under GDPR and related regulations. Overall, the security posture is adequate but could be improved with formalized policies and disclosures.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page detailing data collection, usage, and user rights.
  2. Add a terms of service page to clarify user agreements and legal disclaimers.
  3. Include explicit contact information for general inquiries and security incidents.
  4. Implement and disclose a security policy and incident response procedures.
  5. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and cookies for compliance and security.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern tech stack including jQuery, Bootstrap, FontAwesome, and various plugins for UI and functionality. Cookiebot is used for cookie consent management, and Google Analytics for visitor tracking. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and good SEO metadata including Open Graph tags and JSON-LD structured data. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in accessibility features. Hosting appears to leverage Cloudflare services for CDN and security. No critical technical issues were detected, but ongoing maintenance and updates are recommended to mitigate risks from third-party dependencies.
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.
