SkandiaMäklarna AB operates as a real estate brokerage firm in Sweden, offering services such as property sales, valuations, and buyer-seller matching. The company positions itself as a customer-focused agency providing free property valuations and a variety of real estate services including new production and commercial properties. Their target audience primarily consists of individuals and families seeking to buy or sell residential properties in Sweden. The website reflects a medium-sized business with consistent branding and a good level of content quality. Technically, the website is hosted on Microsoft Azure and uses modern technologies including ASP.NET Core, Cloudflare for CDN and bot protection, and integrates analytics and marketing tools such as Google Tag Manager, Microsoft Application Insights, and Optimizely. The site is mobile-optimized with good SEO practices and uses structured data for enhanced search engine understanding. Performance is moderate with good mobile responsiveness. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS, uses anti-forgery tokens, and provides a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR. However, it lacks explicit security policies or incident response contact information. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. Security headers could be improved to enhance protection. Overall, the website demonstrates a solid digital presence with good privacy compliance and security posture. Recommendations include adding explicit security policies, improving security headers, and publishing incident response contacts to further enhance trust and compliance.

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

16 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

  3. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: Telnet

      Port 23 (Telnet) is publicly accessible - Telnet - Unencrypted remote access

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to Telnet using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: SMB

      Port 445 (SMB) is publicly accessible - SMB - Windows file sharing, high risk

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to SMB using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MSSQL

      Port 1433 (MSSQL) is publicly accessible - MSSQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MSSQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

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 · found on this site
  • 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

SkandiaMäklarna AB holds a strong market position in the Swedish real estate sector, focusing on customer satisfaction and comprehensive property services. Their business model revolves around brokerage and valuation services, supported by digital tools like buyer registries and readiness programs (REDO™). The company leverages partnerships and maintains an active social media presence to engage customers. Revenue streams likely include commissions from property sales and valuation services. The website's integration with international domains suggests a broader market reach. Growth indicators include active content updates and multimedia engagement. The partnership ecosystem includes career and press sites, enhancing corporate communication and recruitment.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, use of anti-forgery cookies, and a robust cookie consent mechanism that allows granular user control. Integration with Cloudflare provides additional protection against bots and DDoS attacks. Analytics and marketing scripts are managed with privacy considerations. However, the absence of published security policies, incident response contacts, and security.txt files indicates room for improvement in transparency and readiness. Security headers are not explicitly detected, which could be enhanced to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. Overall, the site maintains good security hygiene but should formalize incident response and disclosure practices.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and user protections.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to improve defense-in-depth.
  3. Provide clear incident response contact information (e.g., security@ or abuse@ email addresses) to facilitate vulnerability reporting.
  4. Conduct regular audits of third-party scripts and dependencies to ensure no vulnerable libraries are included.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher compliance standards and improve user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern technology stack including ASP.NET Core hosted on Microsoft Azure, leveraging Cloudflare for CDN and security. It uses JavaScript frameworks and modules, with asynchronous loading of analytics and marketing scripts to optimize performance. The site employs structured data (JSON-LD) for SEO and integrates social media feeds via SnapWidget. Performance is moderate, with good mobile optimization and responsive design. Technical debt appears low, but there is an opportunity to improve security headers and accessibility compliance. The use of multiple third-party services requires ongoing monitoring to mitigate potential risks.
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.
