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

Jobly.fi is a prominent Finnish digital recruitment platform offering a wide range of job listings across multiple sectors and regions. As part of Alma Media's Alma Career division, it holds a strong market position with over 25 years of experience in digital recruitment. The platform targets a broad audience including students, unemployed individuals, career changers, and professionals, providing services such as job search, employer profiles, recruitment campaigns, and CV search. Technically, the website is built on Drupal CMS and integrates modern marketing and analytics tools like Google Tag Manager, Adform, and Permutive, ensuring a responsive and user-friendly experience. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS and employs secure form practices but lacks published security policies and incident response contacts, indicating room for improvement. Overall, Jobly.fi demonstrates a mature digital presence with good content quality, technical implementation, and business credibility, though enhancing security transparency and compliance documentation would strengthen its posture further.

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.

Priority findings

8 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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

  2. 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"

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

Jobly.fi operates as a key player in the Finnish digital recruitment market under Alma Media, leveraging a large job database and extensive sector coverage. Its business model centers on connecting job seekers with employers through a digital platform, supported by recruitment campaigns with performance guarantees. The company benefits from strong brand recognition and a comprehensive service offering that includes employer branding and CV search capabilities. Its target customers range from individual job seekers of various backgrounds to employers seeking recruitment solutions. The platform's integration with multiple social media channels and marketing tools indicates a robust partnership ecosystem and a focus on growth and user engagement. Strategic observations suggest that maintaining and expanding its market leadership will depend on continuous technological upgrades and enhanced security and privacy compliance.

Security posture

The website exhibits a moderate to good security maturity level with enforced HTTPS and no visible exposure of sensitive data. However, the absence of a publicly available security policy, incident response information, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms such as a security.txt file highlights gaps in transparency and readiness. The use of multiple third-party scripts and tracking services necessitates regular security audits to mitigate risks. Compliance with GDPR is indicated through privacy and cookie policies, but explicit incident response contacts and data protection officer details are missing. Overall, while the platform maintains a secure baseline, enhancing formal security documentation and response capabilities would improve its security posture and trustworthiness.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive security policy accessible on the website.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact channels, including security@ or abuse@ emails.
  3. Implement and publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosures.
  4. Enhance HTTP security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HSTS, and X-Frame-Options.
  5. Conduct regular security audits of third-party scripts and tracking services to identify and mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

Jobly.fi is built on the Drupal CMS platform, utilizing a modern tech stack that includes jQuery, Google Tag Manager, Google Maps API, and various marketing and tracking tools such as Adform and Permutive. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization and basic accessibility features, with structured data implemented via JSON-LD for SEO benefits. Performance is moderate, with preloading and DNS prefetching techniques employed to improve load times. The technical infrastructure reflects a mature digital platform, though opportunities exist to enhance accessibility and security header implementations. The integration of multiple third-party services requires ongoing management to prevent potential security and privacy risks.
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.
