Smelt by Polaria is a Norwegian e-commerce retailer specializing in sustainable, locally sourced interior and lifestyle products. The company targets environmentally conscious consumers in Norway, offering a broad product range from Nordic and European suppliers. Their business model focuses on online sales with additional services like click-and-collect and flexible payment options. The website demonstrates good content quality, clear navigation, and consistent branding, supported by trust signals such as certifications and customer reviews. Technically, the site uses modern JavaScript libraries and frameworks but suffers from a critical lack of HTTPS due to an invalid SSL certificate, which severely impacts security posture. Privacy compliance is well addressed with a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism. Overall, the site is functional and professional but requires urgent security improvements to protect user data and build 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.
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.

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.

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Business context
Business profile
The company occupies a niche market in Norway focusing on sustainable and local products, leveraging partnerships with recognized Nordic brands. Their e-commerce platform supports multiple product categories and integrates with popular payment processors like Klarna and Vipps. The presence of social media links and Trustpilot reviews indicates active customer engagement and reputation management. The business appears small but well-positioned within its market segment, emphasizing ethical sourcing and environmental responsibility. The website content and structure support a positive user experience, facilitating customer acquisition and retention.
Security posture
The website's security posture is weak due to the absence of a valid SSL certificate and lack of HTTPS support, exposing users to potential data interception risks. While several security headers are present, the lack of TLS protocols and modern SSL configurations is a critical vulnerability. No explicit security or incident response policies are found, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files are present. The cookie consent implementation is robust, indicating awareness of privacy regulations. Immediate remediation of SSL issues is essential to safeguard customer data and comply with security best practices.
Recommendations
Obtain and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
Enable and configure modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 or 1.3) and related security features like OCSP stapling.
Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to enhance transparency and preparedness.
Regularly audit and update security headers and cookie settings to maintain compliance with evolving standards.
Enhance website performance metrics and accessibility features to improve user experience and SEO.
The website is hosted on nginx with DNS servers at hyp.net, indicating a professional hosting environment. The tech stack includes jQuery, Bootstrap, FontAwesome, Owl Carousel, Swiper, Google Tag Manager, and Facebook Pixel, reflecting a modern and interactive front-end. The CMS appears to be a custom or proprietary e-commerce platform tailored for the business. Performance data is missing or zero, suggesting potential issues with load time measurement or actual slow performance. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive design and mobile-specific menus. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. However, the lack of HTTPS is a major technical risk that undermines overall infrastructure quality.
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.
