Risk levelLow

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

The website www.pattex.no represents the Norwegian branch of Pattex, a well-known adhesive and DIY product brand under the global Henkel group. The site provides product information, news, and resources targeted at general consumers interested in DIY adhesive solutions. The business is positioned as a large manufacturing entity with a strong brand presence in Norway and internationally through Henkel. Technically, the website is built on Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) and uses modern web technologies including Adobe Analytics and OneTrust for cookie consent, indicating a mature digital infrastructure. The site is well-optimized for performance, mobile responsiveness, and accessibility, with good SEO practices in place. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced and standard security headers present, though no explicit security or incident response policies are published. The absence of WHOIS data from Norid raises some concerns about domain registration transparency, but the website content and branding strongly suggest legitimacy. Privacy compliance is partial, with a cookie consent mechanism but no visible privacy policy or terms of service pages. Overall, the site is professional and trustworthy but would benefit from enhanced transparency and contact information to improve compliance and user trust.

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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  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 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';…
  3. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

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

Pattex Norway operates as a subsidiary of Henkel, focusing on adhesive and DIY products. The business model centers on product manufacturing and consumer information dissemination. Market positioning is strong due to Henkel's global brand recognition. The website targets DIY consumers and professionals in Norway. Revenue streams likely include product sales through retail and distribution channels. The partnership ecosystem includes Henkel's global network and digital service providers like Adobe and OneTrust. Growth indicators include multi-language support and regional sites. Strategic observations suggest a focus on digital maturity and compliance, though improvements in privacy transparency and direct contact channels are advisable.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with HTTPS, security headers, and cookie consent mechanisms. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the lack of published security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure programs indicates room for maturity improvement. GDPR compliance is partial, with cookie consent but no visible privacy policy. Incident response readiness and security culture indicators are not evident from the site. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by publishing comprehensive policies and contact information.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page linked in the website footer to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Add clear contact information including general and security incident response emails or phone numbers.
  3. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerabilities are introduced.
  5. Enhance structured data with more detailed business and security information to improve SEO and trust signals.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Adobe Experience Manager (AEM), leveraging Adobe Helix RUM for performance monitoring and Adobe Analytics for user tracking. OneTrust is used for cookie consent management, indicating compliance efforts. The tech stack is modern and well-integrated, supporting fast loading times and good mobile optimization. Accessibility features are implemented, and SEO metadata is comprehensive. No technical debt or deprecated technologies were detected in the provided HTML content.

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.
