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

Ilmoituskanava.fi is a Finnish whistleblowing channel service operated by Keskuskauppakamari, providing organizations with an efficient and cost-effective platform to establish whistleblowing channels. The website is professionally designed using WordPress CMS, integrating modern SEO and cookie consent technologies such as Yoast SEO and Cookiebot. The service targets organizations requiring compliance with whistleblowing regulations, positioning itself as a niche government-related service in Finland. The domain registration data aligns well with the business entity, reinforcing legitimacy and trust. Technically, the website employs a standard WordPress stack with essential plugins for forms and analytics, hosted on Finnish nameservers. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization and SEO practices, with structured data enhancing search engine visibility. Cookie consent is implemented with a clear mechanism, supporting GDPR compliance. Security headers and HTTPS are properly configured, contributing to a solid security posture. However, some areas such as accessibility and explicit security policies could be improved. Security-wise, the site shows no signs of vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. The use of third-party scripts is standard, with tracking and marketing cookies disclosed via Cookiebot. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is present, which could be a gap for security transparency. Overall, the site maintains a good balance of security, privacy, and usability. The overall risk assessment is low, with the site appearing trustworthy and compliant with relevant privacy regulations. Strategic recommendations include publishing explicit security and incident response policies, enhancing accessibility features, and maintaining regular audits of third-party integrations to mitigate potential risks.

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

No critical or high findings. These medium findings are worth fixing next.

  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.

    • Medium

      Missing Permissions-Policy header

      Controls browser features and APIs

      What to do: Implement a Permissions-Policy to restrict feature access

      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Permissions-Policy: accelerometer=(), autoplay=(), camera=(), cross-origin-isolated=(),…

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • Medium

      Privacy policy may not be GDPR compliant

      Privacy policy lacks explicit GDPR compliance elements

      What to do: Update privacy policy to explicitly address GDPR requirements and user rights

  3. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Medium

      No MTA-STS Policy

      MTA-STS enforces TLS for email delivery

      What to do: Implement MTA-STS to prevent downgrade attacks

  4. 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.

    • Medium

      SSL Certificate Expires Within 90 Days

      SSL certificate expires in 42 days

      What to do: Plan SSL certificate renewal

  5. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • Medium

      DNSSEC Not Enabled

      DNSSEC is not configured for this domain

      What to do: Enable DNSSEC to prevent DNS spoofing attacks

      • CAPEC-142

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

Ilmoituskanava.fi operates in the government sector, focusing on whistleblowing compliance services for organizations in Finland. The business model revolves around providing a hosted whistleblowing channel platform, likely generating revenue through service subscriptions or licensing. The company Keskuskauppakamari, a recognized Finnish entity, lends credibility and institutional backing. The target customers are organizations needing to comply with whistleblowing legislation, including public and private sectors. The website's content and structured data reflect a clear market positioning as a specialized compliance service provider. Partnerships with major technology providers (Google, Microsoft, LinkedIn, Twitter) for analytics and marketing tools indicate a mature digital ecosystem. Growth indicators include recent domain registration and active cookie consent management, suggesting ongoing compliance and operational maturity.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and multiple security headers present, including HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and Content-Security-Policy (partial). No sensitive data leakage or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The use of Cookiebot for cookie consent aligns with GDPR requirements, enhancing privacy compliance. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms represents a gap in transparency and readiness. The site uses standard WordPress plugins, which should be regularly updated to mitigate risks. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be enhanced by formalizing security governance documentation and incident response procedures.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Add incident response contact information or abuse reporting channels on the website.
  3. Implement a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance website accessibility to meet higher standards for inclusivity.
  5. Conduct regular security audits of third-party scripts and plugins to prevent vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS, leveraging popular plugins such as Contact Form 7 for forms and Yoast SEO for search engine optimization. Cookiebot is integrated for cookie consent management, ensuring GDPR compliance. The hosting is managed via Finnish nameservers (datacenter.fi), indicating local hosting infrastructure. Performance is moderate with standard optimizations; mobile responsiveness is good. Structured data in JSON-LD format is implemented for SEO benefits. The site uses Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing tag management. No advanced frameworks beyond WordPress were detected. Technical risks include dependency on third-party scripts and the need for continuous plugin updates. Opportunities exist to improve accessibility and security header completeness.
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.
