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

The website lovgivning.gl serves as an official Greenland government portal providing access to Greenlandic legislation and administrative regulations. It targets residents and legal professionals in Greenland, primarily Danish-speaking users, offering a searchable legal database and updates on recent laws. The site is operated under the Greenland Self-Government authority, with hosting and domain registration managed by Modulo ApS, a Danish registrar. The content is professionally presented with consistent branding and clear navigation, supporting a medium-sized government service model founded in 2008. Technically, the site uses modern frontend technologies including Vue.js and JavaScript, with a moderate performance profile and good mobile optimization. However, the absence of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS support is a critical security shortfall. The site lacks security headers, HSTS, and DNSSEC, which exposes it to potential risks. No analytics or tracking tools are detected, indicating minimal user tracking and a privacy-respecting approach, though no formal privacy or cookie policies are published. From a security perspective, the site’s lack of HTTPS and security best practices significantly lowers its security posture score. The domain is mature and consistent with official government use, enhancing trustworthiness. However, the absence of incident response contacts, security policies, and vulnerability disclosures suggests room for improvement in security governance. Overall, the site is functional and credible as a government resource but requires urgent security enhancements to protect user data and ensure trust. Strategic recommendations include immediate implementation of HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate, enabling security headers and DNSSEC, publishing privacy and cookie policies to comply with GDPR, and establishing clear incident response channels. These steps will improve security, compliance, and user trust, aligning the site with best practices for government digital services.

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

Lovgivning.gl operates as a government legal information portal for Greenland, positioning itself as the authoritative source for Greenlandic laws and administrative regulations. Its competitive advantage lies in official status and direct linkage to Greenland Self-Government. The business model is public service, funded by government resources, targeting legal professionals, government officials, and citizens seeking legislative information. Revenue streams are non-commercial. The site demonstrates growth potential through digital modernization and expanded legal content. Partnerships with Danish government domains and Greenlandic legal archives strengthen its ecosystem. Operationally, the site maintains consistent branding and content relevance, supporting its role as a trusted government resource.

Security posture

The website currently exhibits a low security maturity level due to the absence of HTTPS and a valid SSL certificate, which is a critical vulnerability exposing users to data interception and man-in-the-middle attacks. The lack of security headers and DNSSEC further weakens its defense against common web threats. No evidence of incident response readiness or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms is present, indicating gaps in security governance. Compliance with GDPR is unclear due to missing privacy and cookie policies. While no malware or phishing indicators are detected, the security posture requires urgent improvements to safeguard user data and maintain trust. The site’s security culture appears minimal, with no visible security certifications or frameworks implemented.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a valid SSL/TLS certificate and enable HTTPS site-wide immediately.
  2. Enable HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) with includeSubDomains and preload directives.
  3. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to ensure GDPR compliance.
  4. Add essential security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options.
  5. Establish clear incident response contact channels and consider publishing a security.txt file.

Notes

The website uses a modern frontend technology stack centered on Vue.js and JavaScript, delivering a responsive and user-friendly interface. Hosting is managed by Modulo ApS, a reputable Danish registrar. Performance is moderate with a page load time of approximately 3.7 seconds and a page size of 215 KB, which is acceptable but could be optimized. Accessibility features are basic, with some attention to mobile optimization. SEO practices are basic, with meta tags and Open Graph tags present but no structured data like JSON-LD. The absence of HTTPS and security best practices represents a significant technical risk. There is no evidence of a CMS or advanced backend technologies from the provided data.
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.
