Risk levelLow

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

Stena Line is a prominent ferry transportation company operating routes primarily between Denmark, Sweden, and other Northern European destinations. Their website offers comprehensive booking options for ferry travel and combined ferry and hotel packages, targeting tourists and travelers seeking convenient maritime transport. The site is built on Adobe Experience Manager, leveraging modern marketing and personalization technologies such as Kameleoon and Adobe DTM, indicating a mature digital infrastructure. Security measures include HTTPS enforcement and bot protection via Google reCAPTCHA and Cloudflare Turnstile, alongside a cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR standards. However, the absence of explicit privacy policies, terms of service, and contact information on the analyzed page limits transparency and user trust. WHOIS data is unavailable, restricting domain legitimacy verification. Overall, the website presents a professional and user-friendly interface with good technical and security posture but would benefit from enhanced compliance disclosures and contact transparency.

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

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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 Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1
    • High

      SSL Certificate Expires Soon

      SSL certificate expires in 10 days

      What to do: Renew SSL certificate before expiration

      • NIS2 21(2)(h)
      • IR 2024/2690 9.2(c): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 9.2(c): Cryptography

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

Stena Line holds a strong market position as a major ferry operator in Northern Europe, offering multiple routes and travel packages. Their business model focuses on transportation services combined with tourism offerings, including hotel packages. The website supports multiple languages and international domains, reflecting a broad target audience. The company leverages partnerships and related domains for booking and travel services, enhancing customer convenience. Growth indicators include digital marketing investments and personalization technologies. However, the lack of visible direct contact details and corporate registration information on the site may impact customer confidence. Strategic partnerships with booking platforms and travel sites strengthen their ecosystem.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with HTTPS, bot protection, and cookie consent mechanisms. Use of Google reCAPTCHA and Cloudflare Turnstile helps mitigate automated abuse. However, the absence of explicit security headers and published security policies or incident response contacts suggests room for improvement in transparency and defense-in-depth. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. Compliance with GDPR is partially indicated by cookie consent but lacks full policy disclosure. Incident response readiness and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are not evident, which could be a risk in case of security incidents.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the homepage.
  2. Add explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Provide clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for customer support and security incidents.
  4. Implement and publish a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure policy to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and marketing tools to ensure no vulnerabilities or privacy issues.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Adobe Experience Manager, a robust enterprise CMS platform, ensuring scalability and content management efficiency. Integration with personalization (Kameleoon), marketing (Adobe DTM), and consent management (OneTrust) tools reflects a modern digital marketing approach. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and includes accessibility considerations, though these could be enhanced. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous loading of scripts and use of CDNs for external resources. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data, although some OG tags lack content. The absence of WHOIS data and some missing compliance pages represent technical and trust gaps. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could benefit from improved transparency and security hardening.
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.
