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

Pure Norwegian Seafood is a Norwegian family-owned seafood producer specializing in high-quality salmon products. The company emphasizes sustainability, quality assurance, and traceability, aiming to be a leading supplier for premium seafood markets. Their website reflects a professional and consistent brand image focused on natural purity and product excellence. Technically, the site uses modern tracking tools such as Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager, with images optimized via Imgix CDN. The site is mobile-optimized and SEO-friendly, though no explicit CMS or hosting provider is identified. Security posture is good with HTTPS enabled and cookie consent mechanisms in place, but lacks visible security headers and detailed security policies. WHOIS data is unavailable due to Norid's privacy policies for .no domains, which is typical and justified for this business type. Overall, the website presents a trustworthy and credible business presence with room for improvement in security transparency and contact information availability.

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

8 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.

    • Critical

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  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"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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';…

  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

The company operates in the manufacturing sector, specifically seafood production, with a focus on premium Norwegian salmon. Their market positioning leverages family heritage dating back to the 1920s and a commitment to environmental sustainability. The business model centers on producing and supplying high-quality seafood products with traceability and quality control as key differentiators. The target customers include seafood processors, smokers, and discerning consumers seeking healthy and sustainable seafood. The website content and structure indicate a small-sized enterprise with a clear branding strategy and consistent messaging. No direct partnerships or subsidiaries are identified from the website content.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level. HTTPS is properly implemented, and a cookie consent banner indicates GDPR awareness. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security posture. No forms or input fields are present on the homepage, minimizing attack surface. There is no visible incident response or vulnerability disclosure information, which could be improved to enhance security readiness and transparency. The lack of WHOIS data is standard for .no domains and does not indicate suspicious activity. Overall, the site is secure for typical user interactions but could benefit from enhanced security best practices and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen browser security.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Provide clear company contact information including emails and phone numbers to improve business credibility and user trust.
  5. Regularly review and update privacy and cookie policies to maintain compliance with evolving regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack with Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager for analytics and tracking, and Imgix CDN for image optimization. The HTML is well-structured with responsive design elements ensuring good mobile optimization. No explicit CMS or hosting provider is detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Performance is moderate with optimized images but no explicit performance metrics available. Accessibility features are basic but present. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. The site lacks visible security headers and detailed technical security documentation, representing an area for technical improvement.
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.
