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.

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

Kolmas Polvi targets businesses seeking marketing and communication services in northern Finland, leveraging local market understanding and data-driven insights. Their business model centers on providing strategic and creative marketing solutions, supported by research and design expertise. The company benefits from its association with Valve-konserni and partnerships with other agencies, enhancing its market reach and service portfolio. The website content and branding are consistent and professional, reflecting a medium-sized agency with growth potential. Trust indicators such as Google Partner certification and Luotettava Kumppani logo reinforce credibility. The company’s digital footprint includes active social media channels and clear contact information, facilitating client engagement.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate, ensuring encrypted communications. Anti-spam measures like honeypot fields are implemented in contact forms, reducing risk of automated abuse. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represents an area for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. Privacy policies and cookie consent mechanisms are in place, supporting GDPR compliance. Incident response and security policy documentation are not publicly available, which could be enhanced to improve transparency and readiness. Overall, the security posture is good for a marketing agency but could be strengthened with additional headers and documented policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response plan accessible to users to enhance trust and compliance.
  3. Regularly audit third-party scripts and plugins for vulnerabilities and update them promptly.
  4. Enhance privacy compliance by detailing data retention policies and user rights related to personal data.
  5. Consider adding multi-factor authentication and regular security training for staff to strengthen internal security culture.

Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility features. SEO is well addressed with proper meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data.

Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and functional marketing agency website.
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.
