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

THINGS Stockholm is an innovation growhouse based in Sweden, focusing on supporting deeptech companies and established corporates internationally by providing global services to its members. The website reflects a small-sized technology sector business founded in 2014, with a consistent domain registration history. The technical infrastructure is built on WordPress using the Divi theme, integrating standard analytics and SEO tools such as Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and Yoast SEO. The website demonstrates good design quality, mobile optimization, and SEO practices, though accessibility is basic. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS enabled and no exposed sensitive data, but lacks security headers and explicit security policies. Privacy compliance is weak due to absence of privacy and cookie policies or consent mechanisms. Contact information and incident response details are not publicly disclosed, limiting direct communication channels. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy but would benefit from enhanced privacy and security transparency.

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. 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';…
  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  3. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

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 company positions itself as an innovation hub in Stockholm serving a niche market of deeptech and corporate members internationally. Its business model revolves around providing global services and fostering innovation growth. The website content and domain age align well with the company's founding year, indicating stable operations. The absence of explicit contact details and policies suggests a possible reliance on member-only or private communication channels. The use of common web technologies and SEO tools indicates a moderate digital maturity. No partnerships or subsidiaries are explicitly identified from the website content. The company could improve its market presence by publishing more comprehensive business and compliance information.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a good SSL configuration, ensuring encrypted communication. However, it lacks important security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options, which are recommended to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. No vulnerable libraries or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The absence of privacy and cookie policies, as well as incident response information, indicates gaps in compliance with GDPR and best security practices. The use of third-party analytics scripts introduces moderate user tracking without visible consent mechanisms. Overall, the security posture is moderate but requires improvements in headers, policy disclosures, and user privacy protections.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with explicit user consent mechanisms to improve GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common attacks.
  3. Publish clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for general and security incident reporting to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Conduct regular audits of third-party scripts and dependencies to identify and mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Consider adding an incident response policy and security framework certifications to demonstrate commitment to security best practices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with the Divi theme, a popular and flexible framework for website design. It uses jQuery and integrates Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics for tracking and marketing purposes. The hosting provider appears to be Beebyte based on the nameservers. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and good SEO metadata including Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous loading of scripts and use of Google Fonts. Accessibility features are basic and could be improved. No broken elements or errors were detected in the provided HTML content. The technical stack is modern but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and privacy compliance features.
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.
