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

Kalis Media is a small Poland-based IT company specializing in custom web development services primarily targeting the Norwegian market. They focus on programming advanced WordPress themes and Shopify stores with interactive animations and custom functionalities. Their business model revolves around delivering tailored web solutions, including SaaS applications and website redesigns, emphasizing usability and maintainability. The company has a strong portfolio and positive client testimonials, positioning them as a niche expert in their field. Technically, the website employs a modern technology stack including PHP, JavaScript, GSAP animations, and popular frameworks like Laravel and CodeIgniter. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and SEO-friendly, though performance is moderate. They use Google Tag Manager and Elfsight widgets for analytics and social media integration. However, there is room for improvement in security headers and privacy compliance. Security posture is good with HTTPS enforced and no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. The absence of security headers and privacy/cookie policies are notable gaps. No WAF or blocking mechanisms were detected, allowing full content access. WHOIS data aligns well with the business claims, supporting legitimacy. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and technically sound but would benefit from enhanced privacy compliance and security best practices to reduce risk and improve user trust.

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

8 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 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"

  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

Kalis Media operates as a specialized web development service provider with a focus on custom WordPress and Shopify solutions. Their competitive advantage lies in deep technical expertise, bespoke theme development, and advanced animation capabilities. Revenue streams likely come from project-based contracts and ongoing maintenance. The target customers are Norwegian businesses and design agencies requiring high-quality, custom web solutions. The company maintains a lean team with founders having complementary skills and long-standing collaboration. Their presence in media and conferences indicates active industry engagement and thought leadership. Partnerships with Shopify and WordPress ecosystems enhance their market reach and credibility.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enabled and no evident exposure of sensitive information. The use of email obfuscation reduces spam risk. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security is a weakness that could expose the site to certain attacks. No incident response or security policy information is published, which could hinder rapid response to security events. Privacy compliance is weak due to missing privacy and cookie policies, potentially exposing the company to regulatory risks under GDPR. Overall, the security culture appears professional but could be improved with formalized policies and technical hardening.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to ensure GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Establish and communicate an incident response policy with dedicated contact channels for security issues.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance transparency by providing clear data retention policies and user privacy controls.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a solid technical foundation using PHP, WordPress, Shopify, and modern frontend technologies including GSAP for animations. It integrates multiple third-party services such as Google Tag Manager and Elfsight widgets for analytics and social media feeds. The site is responsive and accessible with good SEO practices. Performance is moderate, possibly due to rich animations and external scripts. There is no explicit hosting provider information. The codebase avoids no-code builders, favoring custom development which improves maintainability and scalability. Technical risks include missing security headers and potential privacy compliance gaps.
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.
