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

Scouternas folkhögskola is a Swedish folk high school affiliated with the national scouting organization, offering leadership and scout-related education primarily through digital and distance learning formats. The institution targets individuals interested in personal development, leadership skills, and scouting education, positioning itself as a specialized non-profit educational provider within Sweden. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with clear communication of courses, contact information, and social media engagement. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with modern plugins and SEO optimizations, delivering a good user experience with mobile responsiveness and structured content. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and privacy compliance measures such as cookie consent and a detailed privacy policy, though explicit security headers and incident response information are not publicly disclosed. The WHOIS data for the exact www subdomain is unavailable, likely due to querying the full subdomain rather than the base domain, but the overall legitimacy is supported by consistent branding and partner domain relationships. Overall, the site demonstrates a mature digital presence suitable for its educational mission, with room for enhanced security transparency and technical improvements.

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

10 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

    • 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

  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';…

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 organization operates within the education and non-profit sectors, focusing on leadership development and scouting training. Its business model revolves around providing accessible education through classroom and online courses, targeting adult learners and scout leaders. The website's integration with official scouting domains and social media channels indicates a well-established partnership ecosystem. The presence of multiple course offerings and active news updates suggests ongoing engagement and growth. The company registration number is provided, enhancing credibility. The site’s content and structure support a clear market position as a niche educational provider within Sweden's folk high school system.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL configuration, uses cookie consent mechanisms, and links to a comprehensive privacy policy indicating GDPR compliance. However, no explicit security headers (e.g., CSP, HSTS) were detected in the provided data, and there is no public security or incident response policy. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. The use of third-party plugins like Contact Form 7 and Instagram Feed requires regular security audits to mitigate risks. Overall, the security posture is good but could be improved by publishing security policies and implementing additional HTTP security headers.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response plan accessible to users and stakeholders to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Regularly audit and update all third-party plugins and themes to minimize vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher standards for users with disabilities.
  5. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 6.8.2, leveraging popular plugins such as Yoast SEO for search optimization, Contact Form 7 for form handling, and Instagram Feed for social media integration. It uses Google Analytics via gtag.js for traffic analysis and Line Awesome icons for UI elements. The site demonstrates good mobile responsiveness and SEO practices, with structured data in JSON-LD format for enhanced search engine understanding. Performance is moderate, with room for optimization in loading speed and accessibility. No hosting provider information was identified from the content. The technical stack is modern and appropriate for the site's educational purpose, but security enhancements and performance tuning could further improve the user experience and resilience.
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.
