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

Acturis Ltd is a leading UK-based Software-as-a-Service provider specializing in insurance software solutions for brokers, insurers, and Managing General Agents (MGAs). With over 20 years of market presence, the company supports a large digital community transacting over £15 billion in premiums annually. Their platform is recognized for reliability, innovation, and extensive industry adoption, positioning them as a market leader in the insurance technology sector. The website reflects a mature digital infrastructure with modern technologies, strong SEO, and user-friendly design. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and spam protection on forms, though explicit security headers and incident response policies are absent. Privacy and cookie policies are comprehensive and GDPR compliant, with clear consent mechanisms. The absence of WHOIS data reduces transparency but does not detract significantly from the company's apparent legitimacy. Overall, Acturis demonstrates a strong business and technical foundation with room for enhanced security transparency.

Both readouts depend on the site's pages, which could not be loaded in this scan.

Priority findings

2 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.

    • 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 256-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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • GDPR outside view: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

Acturis operates in the insurance technology sector, providing SaaS platforms tailored to commercial and personal lines broking, insurers, and MGAs. Their business model revolves around subscription-based software services, enabling digital transformation in insurance markets. The company has a broad partner ecosystem including major insurers and brokers, reinforcing its market position. Growth indicators include multi-award recognition, high system availability, and a large user base across 40+ countries. Strategic partnerships and a focus on innovation underpin their competitive advantage. The company targets professional insurance intermediaries and carriers, emphasizing digital efficiency and market connectivity.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a strong SSL configuration, uses anti-spam measures in forms, and provides cookie consent mechanisms, indicating a good baseline security posture. However, the lack of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and absence of published security or incident response policies suggest areas for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The company does not provide direct security contact channels or a vulnerability disclosure program, which could enhance trust and incident handling readiness. Overall, the security maturity is moderate to good but could benefit from formalized policies and enhanced header configurations.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Provide direct security contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to minimize risk from vulnerable components.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with modern plugins such as Gravity Forms and Yoast SEO, indicating a mature and extensible platform. Use of Google Tag Manager and Plausible Analytics reflects a balanced approach to analytics and privacy. Image optimization via ShortPixel and asynchronous script loading contribute to fast performance. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility considerations. No major technical debt or outdated technologies were detected. Opportunities exist to enhance security headers and formalize security policies to align with best practices.
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.
