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

Svensk Bokkonst is a well-established Swedish non-profit association dedicated to promoting quality in printed book production through annual awards, exhibitions, and publications. The organization has a strong cultural presence and collaborates with notable partners such as the Royal Library of Sweden. The website is built on a modern WordPress platform with a clean, professional design and good mobile optimization. However, it lacks visible privacy and cookie policies, which are important for GDPR compliance. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS and no exposed sensitive data, but could be improved by enabling DNSSEC and adding security headers. Overall, the site is trustworthy and serves its target audience effectively.

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

    • 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. 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"

    • 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 organization operates in the cultural and non-profit sector, targeting book industry professionals and enthusiasts. Its business model focuses on quality promotion rather than commercial sales, supported by member organizations and sponsors. The website reflects a mature digital presence consistent with its long history. Partnerships with cultural institutions and sponsors enhance its market position. The absence of commercial advertising and minimal tracking indicates a focus on content and community rather than monetization.

Security posture

The website uses HTTPS and standard WordPress security practices but lacks DNSSEC and explicit security headers, which are recommended to enhance protection against DNS spoofing and clickjacking. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which could be improved to demonstrate security maturity. No signs of vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found. The site does not appear to use analytics or tracking scripts, reducing privacy risks.

Recommendations

  1. Publish clear privacy and cookie policies with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Implement DNSSEC to secure DNS resolution.
  3. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Consider adding a security.txt file and vulnerability disclosure policy.
  5. Maintain regular updates of WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 6.8.3 with common plugins like Contact Form 7 and uses jQuery and Font Awesome for UI elements. Google Fonts are loaded externally. Hosting is likely provided by Loopia AB, consistent with the registrar data. The site shows good mobile responsiveness and SEO optimization with proper meta tags and canonical links. Performance is moderate, with no obvious blocking scripts or heavy resources. Accessibility is basic but could be improved with ARIA roles and better semantic markup.
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.
