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

The Nobel Peace Center website serves as the official online presence of the museum dedicated to the Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo, Norway. It offers visitors information about exhibitions, events, and guided tours inspired by Nobel Peace Prize laureates. The site targets a broad audience including tourists, peace advocates, and the general public interested in peace and cultural heritage. The business operates as a non-profit cultural institution with a medium organizational size and a strong market position in Norway's museum sector. Technically, the website is built using modern web technologies including Next.js (React framework) and Sanity CMS, ensuring fast performance and excellent mobile optimization. The site integrates Cookiebot for cookie consent management and Google Tag Manager for analytics, reflecting a mature digital infrastructure. Accessibility and SEO optimizations are well implemented, contributing to a positive user experience. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and employs a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism with granular user controls, supporting GDPR compliance. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. However, the absence of explicit security headers and a security.txt file suggests room for improvement in security best practices. The WHOIS data is unavailable due to query failure or privacy protection, but the domain and website content indicate legitimacy. Overall, the website demonstrates a strong security posture, good privacy compliance, and high business credibility. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing security and incident response policies, and improving contact information visibility to further strengthen trust and compliance.

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 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

The Nobel Peace Center holds a prominent position as a non-profit museum focused on the Nobel Peace Prize, serving both local and international visitors. Its business model revolves around cultural education, exhibitions, and events. Revenue streams likely include ticket sales, donations, and partnerships with payment processors such as Stripe and PayPal. The website's integration with major partners like Microsoft and Spotify for analytics and preferences cookies indicates a well-established partnership ecosystem. Growth indicators include a professional online presence and active social media engagement. The organization maintains a clear focus on peace advocacy and cultural heritage, positioning itself uniquely in the museum sector.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS and a robust cookie consent framework that aligns with GDPR requirements. The use of Cookiebot and Google Tag Manager for privacy and analytics management reflects a commitment to user data protection. No signs of malware, phishing, or exposed credentials were found. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and absence of a security.txt file indicate potential gaps in defense-in-depth and vulnerability disclosure readiness. Incident response and security policy documentation are not publicly available, which could be improved to enhance transparency and preparedness. Overall, the site is secure but could benefit from additional security best practices.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to enhance browser security.
  2. Publish a security.txt file and a dedicated vulnerability disclosure policy to facilitate responsible reporting and improve security transparency.
  3. Add explicit security and incident response policy pages to inform users and stakeholders about security governance and procedures.
  4. Enhance visibility of contact information including official emails and phone numbers to improve user trust and support accessibility.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerable components are included and maintain up-to-date dependencies.

Technical notes

Notes

The website leverages a modern technology stack centered on Next.js for server-side rendering and React-based UI, supported by Sanity CMS for content management. Performance is optimized with preloading of critical images and scripts, and the site is mobile responsive with good accessibility features. Analytics and marketing tools include Google Tag Manager and Cookiebot, enabling compliant data collection and user consent management. The absence of detected hosting provider details suggests possible use of cloud or CDN services. Overall, the technical infrastructure is robust, scalable, and aligned with current web development best practices, though security header implementation could be improved.
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.
