Security score

40/100

Risk levelHigh

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

JOAB Försäljnings AB is a leading Nordic company specializing in truck superstructures, including liftdumpers, hooklifts, garbage trucks, fixed platforms, truck cranes, and innovative shift systems. The company has a strong market position with a history dating back to 1963, offering comprehensive services from development to after-sales support. The website reflects a mature digital presence built on WordPress with modern SEO and tracking technologies, providing a professional user experience and clear business information. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms, though some security headers could be improved. The absence of WHOIS data for the www subdomain is a notable anomaly but does not detract from the overall legitimacy of the business as presented online.

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

11 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

  2. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  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"

    • 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';…

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 · found on this site
  • 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

JOAB operates in the transportation manufacturing sector, targeting transport companies and professionals needing truck superstructures. Their business model combines product manufacturing with sales and extensive service support, including spare parts and authorized service partners. The company leverages multiple digital channels including social media and online marketplaces like Blocket. Growth indicators include recent product launches and facility expansions. The company maintains a strong brand with consistent messaging and a comprehensive product catalog. Partnerships and certifications are implied but not explicitly detailed on the site.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with enforced HTTPS and GDPR-compliant cookie consent. Tracking technologies like Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel are used responsibly with user consent. However, explicit security policies and incident response contacts are absent, which could be improved to enhance trust. Security headers beyond HTTPS are not clearly implemented, representing an opportunity for strengthening defenses. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from formalized policies and enhanced header configurations.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify comprehensive security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  3. Regularly update WordPress core and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Conduct periodic security audits and penetration testing to identify and remediate risks.
  5. Enhance transparency around data retention policies and user privacy practices.

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 6.8.3 using a combination of plugins including Yoast SEO for search optimization, Complianz GDPR for cookie management, Ninja Forms for form handling, and SiteOrigin Panels for layout. It uses modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and FontAwesome for UI elements. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and accessibility features. SEO is well implemented with proper meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. The site uses external services for analytics and marketing, including Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel, integrated with user consent mechanisms. Hosting provider details are not explicitly available. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern and well maintained with room for security header enhancements.
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.
