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

Ideo Solutions AS is a Norwegian-based interactive agency and internet software house specializing in responsive websites, e-commerce, mobile applications, e-learning platforms, digital marketing, and IT outsourcing services. With over 10 years of experience in Norway and a large team of experts in Poland, the company positions itself as a reliable technology partner offering flexible collaboration models including team leasing and outsourcing. Their market presence is supported by a professional website, client testimonials, and a portfolio showcasing diverse projects across sectors such as energy and education. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing, and likely uses the Edito CMS platform. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and SEO-friendly with a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR requirements. However, no explicit security headers were detected in the HTML source, and the WHOIS data for the domain is unavailable, which raises some concerns about domain registration transparency. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and enforces cookie consent with granular controls, but lacks visible security policies or incident response information. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the content. Overall, the website demonstrates a good security posture but could improve by implementing security headers and publishing clear security policies. The overall risk assessment suggests a legitimate and professional business with minor gaps in domain registration transparency and security policy disclosures. Strategic recommendations include verifying domain registration details, enhancing security headers, and publishing incident response and terms of service documents to strengthen trust and compliance.

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

7 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. 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

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

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

Ideo Solutions AS operates in the competitive Norwegian IT services market, leveraging a dual-location model with a strong Polish development team and Norwegian project management. Their business model focuses on B2B services including software development, digital marketing, and IT outsourcing, targeting medium to large enterprises in sectors like energy and education. The company emphasizes flexibility, quality, and partnership, which are key competitive advantages. Their revenue streams likely include project-based development, recurring maintenance and hosting fees, and outsourcing contracts. The presence of multiple language sites and partner domains indicates a strategic approach to internationalization and market expansion. Customer testimonials and a diverse portfolio reinforce their market credibility and client satisfaction.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and a detailed cookie consent mechanism supporting GDPR compliance. However, the absence of visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a gap that could expose the site to certain web-based attacks. No incident response or security policy information is published, which limits transparency and preparedness perception. The site does not expose sensitive data or vulnerable libraries in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is adequate for the business type but would benefit from enhanced header policies and documented security procedures to improve resilience and trust.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  2. Publish clear security policies and incident response procedures on the website to enhance transparency and preparedness.
  3. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration information to ensure domain legitimacy and reduce trust concerns.
  4. Add a terms of service page to clarify user and client agreements and legal protections.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy and security risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack with HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, and Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing. The presence of foundation-mq meta tag suggests use of the Foundation framework for responsive design. The CMS appears to be Edito, supported by references in testimonials and URLs. Performance is moderate with video backgrounds and carousel widgets, but mobile optimization and accessibility are excellent. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Hosting provider details are not explicit. The site uses asynchronous loading for scripts and has a cookie consent modal with granular controls, indicating good technical implementation of privacy features. Opportunities exist to improve security headers and domain registration transparency to reduce technical risks.
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.
