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. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

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

Ferratum operates in the competitive financial services sector, focusing on consumer lending and digital banking products. Its business model centers on providing fast, flexible credit solutions with transparent pricing and no hidden fees. The company benefits from a broad geographic footprint and a strong parent company, Multitude AG. The website's content and marketing emphasize ease of use, speed, and customer empowerment. The presence of embedded customer reviews and active social media channels supports brand trust. The lack of direct public contact emails or phone numbers suggests a controlled customer interaction model via client portals and help centers. Growth indicators include a large customer base and multi-country operations. Strategic partnerships appear limited to internal group entities and service providers.

Security posture

The website exhibits a solid security posture with enforced HTTPS, modern security headers, and no visible exposure of sensitive data. Use of Partytown for script management and Google Tag Manager for analytics indicates a controlled approach to third-party scripts. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response plan, or vulnerability disclosure program limits transparency. No security contact emails or abuse channels are provided, which is a gap for incident handling. The site should consider publishing a security.txt file and explicit security documentation to improve security culture and customer confidence. No vulnerabilities or suspicious scripts were detected in the analysis.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response information on the website.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file.
  3. Provide direct security contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ emails.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and provide more detailed privacy compliance disclosures.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern React and Next.js framework, ensuring server-side rendering and good SEO performance. It uses Partytown to offload third-party scripts to web workers, improving performance and security. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive images and layouts. Integration with Google Tag Manager, Hotjar, and EmbedSocial indicates a mature analytics and marketing setup. The CMS appears custom-built with GraphQL endpoints. Performance is fast with preloading of fonts and images. No major technical debt or outdated libraries were detected. Opportunities exist to improve accessibility and provide more comprehensive metadata for enhanced SEO and compliance.
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.
