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.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • 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

  2. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

  3. 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

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

The company operates in the insurance sector with a focus on legal protection, serving over 12 million customers across 19 countries. Its business model centers on providing insurance products and services with a strong emphasis on customer trust and innovation. The website supports recruitment efforts, indicating a strategic focus on talent acquisition and employer branding. Partnerships with talentsconnect and integration of advanced analytics and consent management tools reflect a mature digital ecosystem. The company maintains a consistent brand presence and leverages social media channels for outreach. Growth indicators include a large customer base and a long-standing market presence since 1935.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enabled and use of privacy-respecting analytics (Matomo) configured to respect DoNotTrack and disable cookies. Cookie consent is implemented with granular user controls, supporting GDPR compliance. However, the absence of explicit security policy pages, incident response contacts, and advanced security headers suggests room for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The site uses third-party scripts responsibly but should maintain regular audits to mitigate supply chain risks. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced with published policies and additional headers.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and compliance.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and enforce security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and dependencies to avoid vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance transparency by detailing data retention policies and cookie usage in privacy documentation.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a proprietary CMS platform provided by talentsconnect, integrating modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Modernizr for feature detection. It uses Google Tag Manager for tag management and Matomo for privacy-focused analytics. The Google Maps API is used for location-based features. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with good SEO practices including meta tags and Open Graph data. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous loading of scripts and prefetching techniques. No major technical debt or legacy technology issues were detected. Hosting details are not explicit but DNS and WHOIS data indicate stable 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.
