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

Ragnar Sellbergs stiftelse is a Swedish foundation supporting research projects at Swedish universities and institutes focused on waste and recycling. The website presents a professional and consistent brand image with good content quality tailored to its target audience of academic and research institutions. Technically, the site uses modern JavaScript frameworks, Episerver CMS, and is hosted on Microsoft Azure, with integrated analytics and monitoring tools such as Matomo, Piwik Pro, New Relic, and Microsoft Application Insights. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism, although explicit security headers and incident response information are absent. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain raises some concerns about domain registration legitimacy, which should be further investigated. Overall, the site is functional, privacy compliant, and trustworthy but could improve transparency and contact 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

5 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 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. 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.

    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048
  4. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Domain Expires Soon

      Domain expires in 13 days

      What to do: Renew domain registration before expiration

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 foundation operates in a niche sector providing funding for environmental research related to waste and recycling in Sweden. It appears to be a small entity with a focused mission. The website links to multiple related domains under the Ragnsells brand, indicating a partnership or group affiliation. The business model is non-profit, supporting research rather than commercial sales. The use of advanced analytics and monitoring tools suggests a mature digital presence. However, the lack of visible contact details and WHOIS information may limit trust for some stakeholders. The foundation could benefit from clearer business and contact disclosures to enhance credibility.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses a cookie consent banner that complies with GDPR, indicating good privacy practices. Multiple analytics and monitoring services are integrated, which helps in operational security and performance monitoring. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and others is a gap. No forms or input fields were detected, reducing attack surface. No incident response or security policy pages were found, limiting transparency. The missing WHOIS data is a concern for domain legitimacy. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by adding security headers, incident response contacts, and verifying domain registration.

Recommendations

  1. Add and enforce security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to improve protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish explicit security policy and incident response information on the website to increase transparency and preparedness.
  3. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration information to ensure domain legitimacy and trust.
  4. Provide clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for general and security-related inquiries.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and analytics tools to ensure no vulnerable or outdated libraries are in use.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack including Episerver CMS, Microsoft Azure hosting, and multiple analytics tools such as Matomo, Piwik Pro, New Relic, and Microsoft Application Insights. JavaScript modules are used extensively for frontend functionality. The site is mobile optimized and accessible with good SEO basics like meta tags and canonical links. Performance is moderate, likely due to multiple external scripts. No forms or user input fields were detected, reducing complexity and security risks. The site lacks some security headers and explicit technical security policies. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could benefit from performance tuning and enhanced security configurations.
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.
