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

2 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

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

  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

Qlik is positioned as a major player in the technology sector, focusing on enterprise data integration and AI-driven analytics. The company leverages its acquisition of Talend to enhance its data fabric and quality offerings. Its business model centers on providing SaaS and on-premises solutions that enable organizations to unify, govern, and analyze data effectively. Qlik's revenue streams likely include software licensing, cloud subscriptions, professional services, and training. The target customers are large enterprises across various industries including financial services, healthcare, manufacturing, and public sector. The company maintains a robust partner ecosystem, including global system integrators and technology partners like AWS, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, and Snowflake. Strategic observations highlight Qlik's emphasis on innovation, customer success, and comprehensive data solutions that address complex business challenges.

Security posture

Qlik's security posture is strong, with HTTPS enforced and no visible security misconfigurations or vulnerabilities in the website content. The use of privacy management tools like OneTrust and compliance with GDPR are evident. However, explicit security policy and incident response information are not directly found on the site, which could be improved. The site avoids exposing sensitive data and uses modern security headers. The integration of multiple third-party scripts is managed carefully, with no known vulnerable libraries detected. Overall, the security maturity appears high, supporting enterprise-grade trust and compliance requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page detailing security frameworks and practices.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ emails.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and scripts to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet or exceed compliance standards.
  5. Maintain transparency on data retention policies and user data handling.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern, performant tech stack including React and Gatsby, with Tailwind CSS for responsive design. It uses advanced client-side libraries for carousels, video embedding, and A/B testing. Hosting is via AWS Cloudfront, ensuring global delivery and scalability. The site demonstrates good SEO practices with comprehensive meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). Performance optimizations such as lazy loading and prefetching are implemented. The technical infrastructure supports a seamless user experience across devices, with strong integration of marketing and analytics tools. Potential technical risks include reliance on multiple third-party scripts which require ongoing maintenance to avoid security or performance issues.
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.
