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

Transportportal.se is a Swedish transport research portal operated by or affiliated with Okidoki Kommunikation AB and the Swedish National Road and Transport Research Institute (VTI). It aggregates and provides access to multiple transport research resources including catalogs, databases, and knowledge centers focused on public transit and transport research in Sweden. The portal targets researchers, transport professionals, and stakeholders within the Swedish transport sector. The website is well-branded, consistent, and offers good content quality with clear navigation and relevant resources. Technically, the site uses modern JavaScript libraries such as Modernizr and Masonry for UI enhancements and is hosted on Azure cloud infrastructure, as indicated by DNS records. The site is mobile-optimized and performs moderately well, though accessibility and SEO optimizations are basic. No CMS or advanced frameworks are detected, suggesting a custom or lightweight implementation. From a security perspective, the site lacks DNSSEC and security headers, and no cookie consent mechanism is present, indicating gaps in GDPR compliance and security best practices. The domain registration is consistent and legitimate, with no privacy protection, and the domain age aligns with the business history. No forms or user input fields reduce attack surface, and no vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. Overall, the website is a credible and professional resource for transport research in Sweden but would benefit from enhanced security headers, GDPR compliance improvements, and cookie consent implementation to strengthen its security posture and privacy compliance.

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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  3. 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 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

Transportportal.se occupies a niche position as a national portal for transport research in Sweden, aggregating multiple research databases and knowledge centers. Its business model is primarily informational and service-oriented, providing access to research catalogs and databases rather than direct commercial transactions. The portal benefits from partnerships with established Swedish transport research institutions such as VTI and K2, enhancing its credibility and reach. The target audience includes academic researchers, transport planners, and government stakeholders. The site’s longevity since 2013 indicates stable operations, though it remains a small-sized entity. The lack of commercial or advertising elements suggests a focus on public service and knowledge dissemination rather than revenue generation. Strategic partnerships with transport research centers and databases form a strong ecosystem supporting the portal’s mission.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level. It benefits from no visible user input forms, reducing common attack vectors. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represents missed opportunities to harden the site against common web threats. The lack of a cookie consent mechanism and limited GDPR compliance details indicate privacy compliance gaps. No incident response or security contact information is provided, which could hinder timely vulnerability reporting and mitigation. The domain registration is transparent and consistent, supporting trustworthiness. Overall, while no critical vulnerabilities were detected, the site should improve its security headers, privacy compliance, and incident response readiness to enhance its security posture.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement standard security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Add a cookie consent banner and detailed cookie policy to comply with GDPR requirements.
  4. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy with explicit GDPR compliance statements and data protection officer contact if applicable.
  5. Establish and publish incident response and vulnerability disclosure contacts to improve security transparency and responsiveness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using standard HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript with libraries such as Modernizr for feature detection and Masonry for grid layout. It uses a custom gallery script (cbpGridGallery.js) for UI presentation. Hosting is on Microsoft Azure cloud, as inferred from DNS name servers. The site lacks a detected CMS, suggesting a custom or static site architecture. Performance is moderate with no explicit indicators of slow loading. Mobile optimization is good with viewport meta tags and responsive design elements. SEO is basic with meta description and keywords but no advanced structured data or Open Graph tags. Accessibility is basic with no ARIA roles or landmarks detected. No analytics or tracking scripts are present, indicating minimal user tracking. Overall, the technical implementation is solid but could benefit from enhanced SEO, accessibility, and security 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.
