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.

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.

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.

Business context
Business profile
The association holds a strong market position within the Swedish media industry, serving as a hub for member agencies and advertisers. Its business model focuses on member services, industry events, and standard-setting, which supports sustainable growth and industry collaboration. The presence of multiple recognized member agencies and partnerships with initiatives like CommToAct enhance its credibility. The website content and structure support clear communication to its target audience of media professionals and advertisers.
Security posture
The website demonstrates good security practices including HTTPS enforcement, use of Google reCAPTCHA to protect forms, and a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR. However, the absence of HTTP security headers and lack of published security policies or incident response contacts indicate areas for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The security score is strong but could be enhanced by adopting additional best practices and transparency measures.
Recommendations
Implement HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to enhance protection against common web attacks.
Publish a security policy and incident response page including contact channels for reporting security issues to improve transparency and readiness.
Add a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and improve security communication with external researchers.
Regularly audit and update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate risks from outdated software.
Consider adding phone contact information for improved user trust and support accessibility.

The website uses WordPress CMS version 6.8.3 with a custom theme and several plugins including Contact Form 7 and Cookie Law Info. It leverages jQuery, Highcharts for data visualization, and Google reCAPTCHA v3 for bot protection. External resources are loaded from trusted CDNs such as cdnjs and Google Fonts. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and includes accessibility features at a basic level. Performance is moderate with room for optimization. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured navigation. No hosting provider details were discernible from the HTML 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.
