High risk. 7 critical or high findings in GDPR outside view, SSL/TLS and 1 other check.

Security score

48/100

Risk levelHigh

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

Storebrand Fonder AB (publ) operates a professional website focused on sustainable investment funds in Sweden, positioning itself as one of the largest fund companies after major banks. The site offers a broad range of funds with a strong emphasis on ESG criteria and low fees, targeting private and corporate investors. Technically, the website uses modern frameworks such as Blazor and integrates with Salesforce and various marketing and analytics tools, hosted on Microsoft Azure DNS infrastructure. However, the absence of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS support significantly weakens the security posture. Privacy and cookie policies are comprehensive and GDPR compliant, supporting user consent mechanisms. Overall, the website is professionally designed and trustworthy but requires urgent security improvements to protect user data and enhance 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

7 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. 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

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  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 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"

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

Storebrand Fonder holds a strong market position in Sweden's financial sector, leveraging sustainable investment trends and ESG-focused products. Their business model centers on fund management and distribution, supported by a well-structured digital presence. The company benefits from its affiliation with Storebrand ASA, enhancing credibility and market reach. The website's content and navigation cater well to its target audience, with clear calls to action for fund exploration and account creation. Partnerships with spp.se and fondlista.se extend their ecosystem. Growth indicators include active news updates and sustainability reporting. The company maintains a professional brand image with consistent messaging and trust signals.

Security posture

The website demonstrates basic security best practices such as Content Security Policy and secure cookie flags. However, the lack of a valid SSL certificate and disabled TLS protocols represent critical vulnerabilities that expose users to data interception risks. The absence of HSTS and OCSP stapling further weakens HTTPS security. No explicit security policies or incident response contacts are published, indicating potential gaps in security governance and transparency. The use of multiple third-party tracking and advertising services is managed with a restrictive CSP, but privacy compliance is reliant on cookie consent mechanisms. Overall, the security maturity is low and requires immediate remediation to meet industry standards and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Install and maintain a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Enable HSTS with includeSubDomains and preload to enforce secure connections.
  3. Update server configuration to support modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 and 1.3).
  4. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  5. Conduct regular security audits and vulnerability assessments to identify and mitigate risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern tech stack including Blazor Server for interactive UI, hosted on an nginx server running on Ubuntu, with DNS managed via Microsoft Azure. It integrates with Salesforce Lightning and uses Google Tag Manager, Hotjar, and OneTrust for analytics and cookie consent. The site is well-structured with good SEO metadata and Open Graph tags. However, performance metrics are unavailable, and SSL/TLS configuration is critically lacking. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design elements. Technical debt appears low but the missing HTTPS is a major risk. Opportunities exist to improve security, enable caching for performance, and enhance accessibility features.
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.
