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

Hugin Cybersecurity AS is a newly established Norwegian cybersecurity company focused on providing effortless cybersecurity solutions for small and medium businesses. The website's title and meta description emphasize this target audience and business focus. However, the website content is currently minimal and displays a client-side application error, limiting user engagement and information availability. The technical infrastructure leverages modern JavaScript frameworks such as Next.js and React, with integrations of HubSpot and Apollo tracking scripts, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. Hosting is provided via Cloudflare, but DNSSEC is not enabled, and no security headers are detected, suggesting room for improvement in security hardening. The security posture is weak due to missing privacy and cookie policies, lack of incident response contact information, and absence of security best practices visible in the HTML content. Overall, the website presents a low trustworthiness level and poor user experience. Strategic recommendations include fixing the application errors, implementing comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with GDPR compliance, enabling DNSSEC and security headers, and providing clear contact and incident response information to enhance credibility and security posture.

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"

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  3. 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

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 in the technology sector, specifically cybersecurity for SMBs, which is a growing market segment. The domain registration is consistent with the company's Norwegian origin and recent founding date in 2024. The business model appears to be service-oriented cybersecurity solutions, but detailed offerings and market positioning are not discernible from the website content. The presence of HubSpot and Apollo tracking scripts suggests an intent to engage in inbound marketing and lead generation. No partnerships or subsidiaries are identified. The lack of visible contact information and policies may hinder customer trust and acquisition. Growth indicators and revenue streams cannot be assessed due to limited data.

Security posture

The current security posture is immature. The absence of DNSSEC, security headers, and privacy policies indicates gaps in security best practices. The website uses HTTPS (implied by Cloudflare hosting) but no explicit enforcement or HSTS headers are visible. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which is critical for cybersecurity companies. Tracking scripts are present without visible consent mechanisms, raising privacy compliance concerns. The domain WHOIS data is transparent and consistent, which supports legitimacy. Overall, the security maturity level is low, and the company should prioritize foundational security and compliance measures.

Recommendations

  1. Fix the client-side application error to restore full website functionality and content availability.
  2. Implement and publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  3. Enable DNSSEC and configure essential security headers such as HSTS, CSP, and X-Frame-Options.
  4. Provide clear contact information including security incident response and abuse contacts.
  5. Review and optimize tracking and analytics scripts to ensure user consent and privacy compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web technologies including React and Next.js, indicating a contemporary technical stack. Hosting is via Cloudflare, providing CDN and security benefits, though DNSSEC is not enabled. Multiple asynchronous JavaScript tracking scripts are loaded from HubSpot, Apollo, and Plausible Analytics, which may impact performance and privacy. The site currently suffers from a client-side application error, severely impacting content delivery and user experience. SEO metadata is present but basic. No CMS is detected. Performance is moderate but cannot be fully assessed due to the error. Accessibility and mobile optimization cannot be reliably determined from the provided data.
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.
