Veripalvelu is the official national blood service provider for Finland, operating under the Finnish Red Cross. The organization manages blood donation services, blood supply logistics, and donor health questionnaires, serving the general public across Finland. The website reflects a strong market position as the sole blood service entity in the country, offering key services such as appointment booking and donor education. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern integrations including Google Tag Manager, Cookiebot for consent management, and a Boost.ai chat panel, indicating a mature digital infrastructure. The site is mobile optimized, accessible, and SEO-friendly, providing a professional user experience. Security posture is robust with HTTPS enforced, multiple security headers, and no visible vulnerabilities.

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

1 finding rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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.

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

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.

Business context

Business profile

Veripalvelu operates as an essential public health service entity within the healthcare and non-profit sectors in Finland. Its business model focuses on providing blood donation and supply services nationwide, supported by the Finnish Red Cross. The organization benefits from strong brand recognition and trust, leveraging partnerships with major technology providers for analytics and consent management. The website's content and structure support donor engagement and operational efficiency. Growth indicators include digital appointment booking and multi-language support. The absence of commercial advertising and affiliate programs aligns with its non-profit status. Strategic observations suggest maintaining strong compliance with GDPR and expanding security transparency to reinforce stakeholder confidence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and no detected vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. Cookie consent is implemented with detailed categorization and user control, supporting GDPR compliance. However, the lack of a dedicated security policy page and incident response contact information limits transparency and readiness perception. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files were found, which could be beneficial for responsible vulnerability reporting. Overall, the site is secure for users and aligns with best practices but could improve in incident communication and formal security documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  4. Regularly review and update cookie and privacy policies to maintain GDPR compliance and transparency.
  5. Enhance user trust by adding visible trust seals, certifications, or testimonials related to security and privacy.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern tech stack including jQuery, DustPress framework, Google Tag Manager, and Cookiebot for consent management. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and accessibility features. The site uses structured data (JSON-LD) for SEO and organization identification. Hosting provider details are not explicitly found. The site employs multiple external domains for analytics, social media, and marketing integrations, all reputable. No deprecated or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. Opportunities exist to improve technical documentation around security and incident response. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a stable and secure user experience.
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.
