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

Superhero Capital is a Denmark-registered venture capital fund specializing in seed investments for software-driven startups primarily in the New Nordics region. The fund offers up to 1 million euros in initial funding and emphasizes founder support without micromanagement. Their website is professionally designed using WordPress and Elementor, featuring clear navigation and mobile optimization. The technical infrastructure includes modern libraries and consent management tools, hosted likely on Azure App Service. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms, though lacking explicit privacy and terms of service pages and security headers. Contact is facilitated mainly through an external Pipedrive form, with no direct emails or phone numbers published. The domain registration is consistent and legitimate, supporting the business claims.

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. 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: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL 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

  2. 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"

  3. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Facebook, LinkedIn, Google APIs

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

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

The company positions itself as a niche regional VC fund with a strong founder-centric approach, targeting software startups in Finland and the Baltics. Their business model revolves around seed funding and follow-on investments, with a portfolio of over 50 startups and backing more than 200 founders. The website content and testimonials reinforce trust and credibility. The absence of direct contact details suggests a controlled communication channel via Pipedrive forms. Social media presence on major platforms supports marketing and outreach efforts.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses cookie consent banners compliant with GDPR principles, indicating awareness of privacy regulations. However, the lack of a published privacy policy and terms of service pages is a compliance gap. No security headers were detected, which could expose the site to certain web-based attacks. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. Incident response and security policy information are not provided, limiting transparency. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be improved with additional policies and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page detailing data collection and processing.
  2. Add terms of service and security policy pages to improve legal compliance and transparency.
  3. Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Provide direct company contact emails and phone numbers for better trust and communication.
  5. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and cookie usage to ensure minimal tracking and compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress with Elementor, leveraging jQuery and Swiper.js for UI interactions. Cookie consent is managed via CookieYes and Usercentrics CMP scripts. Hosting appears to be on Azure App Service, inferred from session cookies. Performance is moderate with responsive design and mobile optimization. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured links. Accessibility is basic but could be enhanced. No critical technical debt or vulnerabilities were detected in the provided content.
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.
