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

WTW is a global leader in risk management, employee benefits, and capital advisory services, offering data-driven and insightful solutions to enterprises. The Finnish localized website reflects a mature digital presence with comprehensive content, professional design, and clear navigation targeting corporate clients and enterprises. The technical infrastructure leverages modern web technologies including Sitecore CMS, Bootstrap framework, Coveo search, and Brightcove video players, hosted likely on Microsoft Azure. Despite a strong security header configuration, the site suffers from a critical SSL certificate issue, lacking valid HTTPS support, which significantly impacts its security posture. Privacy compliance is well addressed with clear privacy and cookie policies and consent mechanisms. The site extensively uses third-party analytics and marketing tools, indicating a high level of user tracking and data collection. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy but requires urgent remediation of SSL issues to ensure secure communications and maintain user trust.

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

4 findings 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.

    • Critical

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  2. 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 Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, LinkedIn

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

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

WTW operates in the finance sector, focusing on risk management, insurance brokerage, and human capital consulting. The business model centers on providing consulting and advisory services to enterprises globally. The website targets corporate clients seeking solutions in employee benefits, risk mitigation, and capital optimization. WTW maintains a strong market position with a consistent brand and extensive global presence, supported by multiple regional and language-specific sites. The company leverages partnerships and maintains investor and career portals, indicating a mature organizational structure. The digital presence supports marketing and lead generation through advanced analytics and consent management tools, reflecting a sophisticated marketing ecosystem.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with several best practices implemented, including strict content security policies, frame options, and permissions policies restricting device features. However, the absence of a valid SSL certificate and lack of TLS 1.2 or higher protocols severely undermine the security posture, exposing users to potential risks. No known vulnerabilities or malware indicators were found. Privacy policies and cookie consent mechanisms align with GDPR requirements, but the lack of explicit incident response or vulnerability disclosure information suggests room for improvement in transparency and readiness. Overall, the site requires immediate SSL remediation and enhancement of security protocols to meet enterprise security standards.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy a valid SSL certificate to enable HTTPS and secure user communications.
  2. Enable modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 or TLS 1.3) and disable deprecated protocols.
  3. Enhance HSTS policy by enabling includeSubDomains and preload directives.
  4. Review and tighten Content Security Policy to remove unsafe-eval and unsafe-inline directives where possible.
  5. Publish explicit vulnerability disclosure and incident response policies to improve transparency and trust.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Sitecore CMS platform, utilizing Bootstrap for responsive design and jQuery for client-side scripting. It integrates Coveo for advanced search capabilities and Brightcove for video content delivery. Google Tag Manager and OneTrust manage analytics and cookie consent respectively. Hosting appears to be on Microsoft Azure, inferred from HTTP headers. While the site is well-structured and optimized for accessibility and SEO, performance metrics were not available. The invalid SSL configuration represents a significant technical debt and risk. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with good SEO practices evident in meta tags and structured data. Overall, the technical stack is modern and robust but requires urgent security upgrades.
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.
