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

Kon-Tiki museet is a specialized cultural museum located in Norway, dedicated to the life and expeditions of Thor Heyerdahl. The museum offers exhibitions, educational programs, and events focused on Heyerdahl's voyages and related anthropological explorations. It targets a general audience interested in history and exploration, operating primarily as a small-sized institution with a clear focus on cultural heritage. Technically, the website is built on the Squarespace platform, leveraging modern web technologies and integrating tracking tools such as Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel. The site is mobile-optimized and provides a good user experience with clear navigation and professional design. Security-wise, the website enforces HTTPS with HSTS and uses reCAPTCHA to protect forms, but lacks some advanced security headers and does not publish explicit security or privacy policies. The absence of WHOIS data due to privacy protection is common and does not detract from the site's legitimacy. Overall, the website is trustworthy and professionally maintained, though it would benefit from enhanced privacy and security disclosures.

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

3 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 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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  3. 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.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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

The museum holds a niche market position as a cultural and historical institution focusing on Thor Heyerdahl's legacy. Its business model revolves around visitor engagement through exhibitions, educational content, and ticket sales, supported by a partnership with booking.duell.no for ticketing services. The museum maintains an active social media presence across major platforms, enhancing outreach and engagement. The website's content quality and branding are consistent, supporting a credible and professional image. Growth opportunities may include expanding digital content and improving privacy compliance to align with evolving regulations.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid baseline security posture with HTTPS and HSTS enabled, protecting data in transit. The use of reCAPTCHA mitigates automated abuse of forms. However, the lack of comprehensive 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. The absence of published security policies or incident response contacts limits transparency and preparedness communication. Enhancing these aspects would strengthen the site's security maturity and compliance posture.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a comprehensive privacy policy page detailing GDPR compliance and data handling practices.
  2. Add security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to improve defense-in-depth.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to enhance transparency and readiness.
  4. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize security risks.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve inclusivity and compliance with standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is hosted on Squarespace, utilizing its CMS capabilities and content delivery network. It employs modern JavaScript libraries and integrates Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel for analytics and marketing. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization. The site uses structured data (JSON-LD) for SEO and social media integration. Some technical debt is noted in missing advanced security headers and limited accessibility features. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the museum's digital presence effectively but could benefit from incremental modernization and security 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.
