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

Spoon is a well-established Swedish communications agency specializing in strategic and creative marketing services including storytelling, video production, and social media management. The company has a mature market presence with over 26 years of operation and is part of a larger agency network, People People People, enhancing its regional reach. The website reflects a professional and modern digital presence built on WordPress, with good SEO and user experience design. However, the lack of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS implementation is a critical security gap that undermines user trust and data protection. Cookie consent is managed effectively via Cookiebot, but no privacy policy or terms of service pages were found, indicating compliance gaps. Contact information is clearly provided, supporting business credibility. Overall, the site is functional and professional but requires urgent security improvements to meet modern standards.

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

8 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

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

    • 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. 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. 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 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 agency targets businesses and organizations seeking authentic and creative communication solutions. Its business model is service-oriented, focusing on marketing, storytelling, and digital content creation. The company leverages partnerships within the People People People network to offer a broad range of services across the Nordic region and the UK. The website's content and branding are consistent and high quality, supporting a strong market position. The absence of privacy and security policies may pose risks in regulated markets. The agency uses modern marketing and analytics tools, indicating digital maturity and data-driven decision-making.

Security posture

The website currently lacks a valid SSL certificate and does not serve content over HTTPS, exposing users to potential interception and undermining trust. Security headers such as X-Frame-Options and cookie flags are set, but HSTS is not fully enabled. No incident response or security policy information is published, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files are present. The use of Cookiebot indicates some attention to privacy compliance, but the absence of a privacy policy and terms of service is a significant gap. Overall, the security posture is weak and requires immediate remediation to protect user data and comply with regulations.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve compliance and transparency.
  3. Enable full HSTS with includeSubDomains and preload directives to enhance transport security.
  4. Implement and publish an incident response policy and vulnerability disclosure process.
  5. Regularly audit and update security headers and cookie settings to align with best practices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 6.8.1 with modern front-end assets and uses Redis Object Cache for performance optimization. It integrates Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, and Cookiebot for analytics and privacy management. Hosting appears to be on AWS infrastructure. The site is mobile-optimized with good SEO metadata and structured data (JSON-LD) for enhanced search engine understanding. However, the lack of HTTPS and incomplete security configurations represent significant technical risks. Performance metrics were not available, but caching and CDN usage suggest moderate to good performance potential. Accessibility features are basic but present.
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.
