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

      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

  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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 384-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

Vinmonopolet holds a unique market position as the exclusive government-authorized alcohol retailer in Norway, ensuring responsible sales and public health considerations. The business model is a government monopoly with a focus on sustainability and social responsibility. The website reflects a campaign or informational microsite launched in 2024, consistent with the domain's recent registration. The company maintains clear contact information and legal registration details, reinforcing credibility. No social media or third-party partnerships are evident on this site, indicating a controlled and focused digital presence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enabled and no exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries detected. However, the absence of explicit security headers (such as CSP, HSTS) and lack of a published security or incident response policy represent areas for improvement. No forms collecting sensitive data are present, reducing attack surface. Privacy compliance is well addressed with clear policies and cookie consent mechanisms. Incident response readiness and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are not publicly visible, which could be enhanced to improve trust and security transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish explicit security headers including Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options.
  2. Develop and publish a formal security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Introduce a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Consider adding verified company contact emails for security and privacy inquiries to enhance communication channels.
  5. Maintain regular security audits and update third-party scripts to ensure ongoing protection against vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built with modern HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript technologies, including custom fonts and optimized WebP images for performance. It uses a custom or proprietary frontend framework with lazy loading and preloading techniques (instant.page) to enhance user experience. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility considerations such as skip links and ARIA labels. No CMS or hosting provider is explicitly detected. Performance is fast with minimal external dependencies. The technical implementation is robust, though adding security headers and formalizing security documentation would strengthen the overall infrastructure.
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.
