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

QD Sverige AB is a medium-sized Swedish IT service provider specializing in delivering comprehensive IT and operational solutions. Acting as an external IT department for its clients, QD offers a broad range of services including user support, IT security, cloud services, and strategic IT advisory. The company positions itself as a flexible yet stable IT partner, targeting businesses and organizations seeking reliable and scalable IT solutions. Their market presence is supported by multiple certifications and a strong focus on customer satisfaction. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies such as jQuery, SignalR, and Google Tag Manager, with responsive design and good SEO practices. While the site uses HTTPS and has cookie consent mechanisms, it lacks some advanced security headers and explicit security policies. Analytics usage is moderate, primarily through Google Tag Manager, with basic privacy compliance measures in place. From a security perspective, the site demonstrates a solid baseline with HTTPS and cookie consent but could improve by publishing detailed security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. The domain registration data aligns well with the business claims, enhancing trustworthiness. Overall, QD Sverige AB presents a professional and credible online presence with good technical implementation and business clarity. Strategic improvements in security transparency and compliance documentation would further strengthen their security posture and customer 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

5 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

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

    • 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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Google APIs

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

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

QD Sverige AB operates in the Swedish IT services sector, focusing on providing external IT department functions, user-centric IT support, and IT security solutions. Their business model revolves around service delivery with a strong emphasis on customer relationships and proactive IT management. The company targets medium-sized enterprises and organizations requiring scalable and flexible IT solutions. Certifications such as ISO 27001 and Microsoft Partner status reinforce their competitive positioning. Their partnership ecosystem includes related domains like shop.qd.se for e-commerce and my.qd.se as a customer portal, indicating a diversified service offering. Growth indicators include active customer satisfaction metrics and a visible marketing presence. The company maintains a consistent brand and professional content, supporting a high level of business credibility.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and implements a cookie consent banner, indicating awareness of basic security and privacy requirements. However, it lacks explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, which are recommended to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. No dedicated security policy or incident response contact information is published, limiting transparency for security incidents. The absence of a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure page suggests limited formal vulnerability management communication. Analytics and tracking scripts are present but appear to be managed responsibly. Overall, the security posture is moderate with room for improvement in policy transparency and technical security controls.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  2. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection.
  3. Create and maintain a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and improve transparency.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to avoid vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet compliance standards and improve user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack including jQuery, SignalR for real-time features, Google Tag Manager for analytics, and Bootstrap for responsive design. The site loads external fonts from Google Fonts and icons from FontAwesome, contributing to a polished visual presentation. Performance is moderate, with no obvious blocking scripts or heavy resources detected. The site is mobile-optimized with a responsive navigation menu and clear content structure. However, no CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. Technical debt appears low, but improvements in security headers and accessibility could be addressed to reduce risk and improve compliance.
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.
