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

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

Make AS operates in the technology sector, targeting Norwegian enterprises and organizations requiring effective communication tools. Their SaaS business model offers a suite of services including newsletters, segmentation, automation, dynamic content, and SMS communication. The company leverages local data hosting to appeal to privacy-conscious customers. Their competitive advantages include Norwegian support, compliance with GDPR, and a strong brand presence supported by customer case studies and certifications. The partnership ecosystem includes Cookie Information for consent management and Cloudflare for security and performance. Growth indicators include a well-maintained website with extensive resources and customer testimonials.

Security posture

The security maturity level of Make AS is solid, with HTTPS enforced and a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism that respects user privacy and GDPR requirements. The website uses Cloudflare for DDoS protection and performance enhancement. Third-party scripts like Intercom are loaded conditionally based on user consent, reducing privacy risks. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. However, the absence of a publicly available security policy or incident response contact limits transparency. The company should consider publishing these to enhance trust and readiness. Overall, the security culture appears proactive and aligned with best practices for a small technology provider.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security controls and practices.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ emails.
  3. Explicitly implement and document security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Consider establishing a vulnerability disclosure program to encourage responsible reporting.

Technical notes

Notes

The website infrastructure is based on WordPress CMS with the Infinite theme and GoodLayers Core plugin framework. It uses modern JavaScript libraries including jQuery and integrates Google Tag Manager and Intercom for analytics and customer support. Hosting appears to be behind Cloudflare, providing CDN and security benefits. The site is well-optimized for mobile devices and accessibility, with SEO enhancements via Yoast SEO Premium. Performance is fast, and the site uses structured data (JSON-LD) for enhanced search engine understanding. Technical risks are minimal, but continuous monitoring of third-party dependencies is advised to maintain security and performance.
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.
