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

Kvik is a well-established Danish retail company specializing in modern design solutions for kitchens, bathrooms, and wardrobes. The website reflects a strong brand presence with professional design and comprehensive content tailored to consumers interested in Scandinavian home interiors. The company operates multiple regional partner sites across Europe, indicating a broad market reach. Technically, the website is built on modern frameworks such as Next.js and React, leveraging advanced analytics and marketing tools including Google Tag Manager, Cookiebot, and Tealium. The site is well-optimized for performance, mobile responsiveness, and SEO, providing an excellent user experience. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforcement, security headers, and a detailed cookie consent mechanism, although explicit security policies and incident response contacts are not published. Overall, the site demonstrates good GDPR compliance and privacy practices. The lack of WHOIS data limits full verification of domain registration details but does not detract significantly from the site's legitimacy. Strategic recommendations include publishing a security policy, providing direct contact information, and adding a vulnerability disclosure mechanism to enhance trust and security readiness.

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

4 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"

    • 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. 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

Kvik holds a strong position in the retail sector focused on home design, targeting consumers seeking modern Danish aesthetics for kitchens, bathrooms, and wardrobes. The business model centers on retail sales and design services, supported by a network of regional partner websites. The company leverages extensive marketing and analytics tools to optimize customer engagement and advertising effectiveness. Growth indicators include a broad European presence and integration with multiple digital marketing platforms. The partnership ecosystem includes major ad networks and analytics providers, enhancing market reach and data-driven decision-making. The website's professional content and consistent branding reinforce its market credibility.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and a robust cookie consent framework that aligns with GDPR requirements. The use of multiple third-party scripts introduces potential risk vectors, but no immediate vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. The absence of a published security policy or incident response contact reduces transparency and may impact incident handling efficiency. No security.txt or vulnerability disclosure page was found, which is a recommended best practice. Overall, the site is secure but could improve by formalizing security governance and communication channels.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and compliance.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information, including security and abuse email addresses.
  3. Implement a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Audit and monitor third-party scripts regularly to mitigate supply chain risks.
  5. Enhance business credibility by adding visible contact details such as phone numbers and emails.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Next.js and React, indicating a modern and scalable front-end architecture. It integrates multiple analytics and marketing tools such as Google Tag Manager, Tealium, Cookiebot, and Sleeknote, enabling sophisticated user tracking and consent management. Hosting appears to be on Microsoft Azure, inferred from cookie providers and domains. Performance is optimized with preloading of fonts and images, and mobile responsiveness is excellent. Accessibility features are present but could be further enhanced. SEO is well addressed with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. The technical stack is robust, but reliance on numerous third-party scripts requires ongoing security vigilance.
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.
