The Swedish Club is a well-established marine mutual insurer founded in 1872, providing a comprehensive range of marine insurance products and services targeted primarily at shipowners and maritime industry professionals. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image, with clear business positioning as a leading insurer in the marine transportation sector. The digital presence leverages modern web technologies including WordPress with Gutenberg, integrated video content, and analytics tools such as Google Analytics and Hotjar, indicating a mature digital infrastructure. The site is mobile optimized and SEO friendly, enhancing user experience and accessibility. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent mechanisms implemented, although explicit security headers and published security policies are absent. The lack of WHOIS data for the domain introduces some uncertainty regarding domain registration legitimacy, but the overall professional presentation and business history support trustworthiness. Privacy compliance is basic, with cookie consent but no detected privacy policy page in the analyzed content. Contact information is not explicitly found in the provided content, which could be improved for better transparency. Overall, the website is a credible and professional platform for marine insurance services with room for enhancement in privacy and security disclosures.

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. 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 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';…

  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.

    • 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

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 Swedish Club operates in the marine insurance sector as a mutual insurer, serving shipowners and maritime businesses globally. Its long history since 1872 positions it as a trusted market leader. The business model focuses on mutual insurance, providing tailored marine insurance products and risk management services. The website targets industry professionals and members, emphasizing service quality and industry expertise. The company leverages partnerships and digital marketing tools to maintain market presence. Absence of detailed contact and corporate registration data on the website suggests a focus on member-based communication channels. The use of advanced analytics and consent management tools indicates attention to data-driven marketing and compliance. Strategic growth likely depends on maintaining trust and expanding digital engagement with the maritime community.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with HTTPS enforced and a cookie consent mechanism via Cookiebot, reflecting GDPR awareness. However, explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options are not evident, representing an area for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The absence of a published security policy or incident response contact information limits transparency and readiness perception. The WHOIS data absence raises minor concerns about domain registration transparency but does not directly impact site security. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by adding explicit security headers, publishing security policies, and providing incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy page to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Add explicit HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Referrer-Policy to strengthen security posture.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to enhance transparency and readiness.
  4. Provide clear and accessible company contact information including emails and phone numbers on the website.
  5. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration details to ensure transparency and trustworthiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress using the Gutenberg editor, incorporating modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and analytics/tracking tools including Google Analytics, Hotjar, and Cookiebot for consent management. The site uses embedded video content hosted on Wistia, enhancing engagement. SEO is well addressed with meta tags and Open Graph data. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts and responsive design for mobile devices. Accessibility is basic but could be improved with more ARIA roles and semantic HTML. No major technical debt or outdated libraries were detected. Hosting provider details are not explicit in the content. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and functional user experience with opportunities for optimization in accessibility and security headers.
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.
