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

7 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

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

Amanat holds a strong market position as the region's largest integrated healthcare and education investment company, with operations primarily in the UAE and Saudi Arabia. Its business model leverages platform-building and hands-on management to create value and growth. The company targets investors, analysts, and stakeholders interested in sustainable and resilient sectors. Financial disclosures, ESG reporting, and regulatory approvals underscore its transparency and compliance. The partnership ecosystem includes subsidiaries like Almasar Alshamil Education. Growth indicators include recent IPO approvals and consistent revenue growth announcements. The company emphasizes sustainability and social impact as core strategic pillars.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and domain status locks preventing unauthorized changes. The presence of a whistleblowing contact indicates an incident response readiness culture. However, the absence of DNSSEC, security headers, and a formal security policy or vulnerability disclosure page suggests room for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the content. Compliance with GDPR is implied through privacy policy content, but cookie consent mechanisms are lacking. Overall, the security posture is solid but could be enhanced with additional best practices and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and publish security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options.
  3. Add a dedicated security policy page outlining frameworks and incident response procedures.
  4. Introduce a cookie consent banner/mechanism to improve GDPR compliance and user privacy transparency.
  5. Publish a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting and improve trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using the Gutenberg editor and integrates JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Swiper.js for UI components. It uses Gravity Forms for data collection and Google Tag Manager for analytics and tracking. Hosting is via GoDaddy.com, LLC as per WHOIS data. The site is mobile optimized with good accessibility and SEO practices. Performance is moderate, with room for optimization. The technical stack is modern and well-maintained, supporting a professional user experience. However, the lack of some security headers and cookie consent mechanisms indicates minor technical debt in security and privacy compliance areas.
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.
