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

Eurex, operated by Deutsche Börse Group, is a leading global derivatives exchange specializing in EUR-denominated equity index and fixed income derivatives. The platform offers a comprehensive suite of trading, clearing, and market data services targeting institutional investors, traders, and clearing members worldwide. The website reflects a mature and professional digital presence with extensive market information, regulatory compliance details, and user support resources. Technically, the site is built on CoreMedia CMS with modern JavaScript frameworks and integrates Matomo analytics for user tracking. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforcement, security headers, and cookie consent mechanisms, although explicit incident response contacts and vulnerability disclosure policies are not prominently published. The absence of public WHOIS data is notable but likely due to privacy or registry policies, not detracting significantly from the site's legitimacy. Overall, Eurex demonstrates a high level of business credibility, technical maturity, and security awareness appropriate for a major financial market infrastructure provider.

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

2 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 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. 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

Eurex holds a dominant position in the European and global derivatives markets, leveraging Deutsche Börse Group's extensive financial ecosystem. Its business model centers on providing liquid trading venues, clearing services, and market data products. The company targets professional market participants including banks, brokers, and asset managers. Revenue streams likely include transaction fees, clearing fees, and data sales. The website's detailed product catalogs, trading tools, and regulatory disclosures indicate a transparent and customer-focused approach. Partnerships and subsidiaries such as Eurex Clearing and Eurex Repo extend its service offerings. The platform's continuous updates and incentive schemes suggest active market engagement and growth orientation.

Security posture

The website exhibits a robust security posture with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and no visible exposure of sensitive data. Cookie consent and privacy policies align with GDPR requirements, reflecting compliance maturity. However, the lack of a publicly accessible incident response contact or vulnerability disclosure program represents a gap in transparency and readiness communication. No vulnerable or outdated libraries were detected in the scripts. Overall, the security practices are strong for a financial exchange website, minimizing risk exposure and supporting trustworthiness.

Recommendations

  1. Publish explicit incident response and security contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Enhance visibility of security certifications and compliance attestations on the website.
  4. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and analytics to ensure no vulnerabilities are introduced.
  5. Continue to monitor and improve cookie consent mechanisms to maintain GDPR compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is powered by CoreMedia CMS, leveraging modern JavaScript and asynchronous script loading for performance. Matomo analytics is used for privacy-conscious user tracking. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessible navigation structures. Meta tags and Open Graph data are well implemented for SEO and social sharing. Performance is moderate, with potential for optimization in script loading and caching. No major technical debt or deprecated technologies were identified. Hosting details are not explicit but likely managed by Deutsche Börse Group's infrastructure. Overall, the technical implementation supports a professional and scalable digital presence.
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.
