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

7 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 Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  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 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';…

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

Nordax Bank holds a leading position in the Nordic banking sector as a specialist lender and savings provider. Its business model centers on retail banking products such as unsecured loans and savings accounts, targeting consumers seeking financial balance and loan consolidation. The company is part of NOBA Bank Group AB (publ), with a clear brand presence and professional content. The website links to career opportunities and social media, indicating active engagement and growth orientation. The use of structured data and clear navigation supports customer acquisition and retention. The bank's deposit guarantee information and regulatory compliance references enhance customer trust.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with strong SSL configuration and implements key security headers, indicating a mature security posture. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The login form appears secure, and third-party scripts are limited to trusted providers like Google Tag Manager. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response plan, or vulnerability disclosure program represents a compliance gap. No dedicated security contact emails were found, which could hinder incident reporting and response. Overall, the security posture is good but could be improved by publishing explicit security governance documents and contact points.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security governance and controls.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information, including abuse and security emails.
  3. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Include data protection officer contact details to enhance GDPR compliance transparency.
  5. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate supply chain risks.

The website is built on a modern technology stack featuring React and Next.js frameworks, supported by Sanity CMS for content management. Hosting appears to be on Vercel, ensuring fast performance and scalability. The site is fully responsive with excellent mobile optimization and accessibility features. SEO is well implemented with proper meta tags, Open Graph data, and structured JSON-LD schema describing the organization.

The site demonstrates a high level of technical maturity suitable for a financial services provider.
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.
