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

The Gang Sweden AB is an international game development studio specializing in creating immersive and branded gaming experiences. The company has established a strong market presence with high-profile clients such as Spotify, Netflix, Vans, and Amazon, and has received multiple industry awards including Webby and Drum Awards. Their business model focuses on original game development and branded interactive worlds that engage target audiences effectively. The website reflects a professional and modern digital presence, leveraging advanced web technologies and animations to showcase their portfolio and capabilities. Technically, the website is built on the Webflow platform, utilizing modern JavaScript libraries such as GSAP for animations, Lenis for smooth scrolling, and Finsweet attributes for enhanced CMS and UI features. The site is well-optimized for performance, mobile responsiveness, and accessibility, indicating a mature digital infrastructure. Hosting is managed via Webflow's CDN, ensuring fast content delivery. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and implements a cookie consent mechanism, demonstrating awareness of privacy compliance. However, explicit security headers and detailed privacy or incident response policies are not found, representing areas for improvement. No vulnerabilities or security blocking mechanisms were detected, and no sensitive data exposure was observed. Overall, the website and business appear legitimate and professionally managed, though the absence of WHOIS data limits full domain registration verification. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing comprehensive privacy and security policies, and maintaining regular audits of third-party scripts to uphold security and compliance standards.

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

5 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.

    • 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

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube, Cloudflare, Google APIs

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

  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
  3. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Unregistered MX Record

      MX record points to unregistered domain: viwptoorocannj5flcmlpfmxtxprbjisc6xhaiwjkayndjr3uprq.mx-verification.google.com

      What to do: Remove or fix MX record pointing to unregistered domain

      • RFC 5321 §5.1
      • NIS2 21(2)(i)
      • IR 2024/2690 12.4: Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 12.4: Asset inventory

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 Gang Sweden AB operates in the technology and media sectors, focusing on immersive game development and branded experiences. Their competitive advantage lies in their award-winning projects and partnerships with globally recognized brands, positioning them as a leader in interactive branded gaming. The business model is service-oriented, delivering custom game worlds that align with brand storytelling and audience engagement. Revenue streams likely include project-based contracts with brands and ongoing support or content updates. The target customers are brands and entertainment companies seeking innovative digital engagement solutions. Growth indicators include a sizable team of over 200 members, multiple nationalities, and extensive visits to their games (2.5 billion visits). Their partnership ecosystem includes major platforms like Roblox, Fortnite, and Minecraft, enhancing their market reach and credibility.

Security posture

The current security posture of the website is moderate to strong, with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented. The absence of explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options suggests room for enhancement. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The lack of a public security policy or incident response contact channels indicates a gap in transparency and readiness for security incidents. Compliance with GDPR is partially indicated by the cookie consent banner but lacks a detailed privacy policy. Overall, the security maturity is adequate for a marketing and portfolio website but should be improved to meet higher compliance and security standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  2. Publish detailed privacy and security policies on the website to enhance transparency and compliance with GDPR and other regulations.
  3. Establish and publicize an incident response plan with dedicated contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to prevent vulnerabilities from outdated components.
  5. Enhance WHOIS domain registration transparency or use verified domain registration to improve trustworthiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website leverages a modern technology stack centered on Webflow CMS, enhanced with JavaScript libraries like GSAP for animations and Lenis for smooth scrolling. The use of Finsweet attributes provides advanced UI components such as sliders, auto video, and cookie consent. Hosting is via Webflow's CDN, ensuring fast load times and global availability. The site is well-optimized for mobile devices and accessibility, with semantic HTML and ARIA roles. Performance is fast with efficient media usage and lazy loading. Technical risks are minimal but include reliance on multiple third-party scripts which require ongoing security monitoring. There is no evidence of technical debt or legacy code, indicating a well-maintained codebase.
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.
