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

GEICO is a well-established insurance company specializing in auto insurance and is a wholly owned subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway. The website analyzed is a careers portal hosted on the Workday platform, designed to provide job seekers with information about employment opportunities at GEICO. The site content is minimal and focused primarily on recruitment, with no visible privacy or cookie policies, contact information, or terms of service on the analyzed page. Technically, the site uses modern JavaScript and Workday's candidate experience framework, with assets served via Workday's CDN, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. Security posture is moderate but could be improved by adding security headers and explicit HTTPS enforcement. Overall, the site is functional but lacks comprehensive compliance and transparency features.

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

6 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

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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. 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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

  3. 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';…

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

GEICO holds a strong market position as one of the largest and fastest-growing auto insurers in the United States. Its business model focuses on providing affordable auto insurance and career opportunities. The company benefits from its parent company Berkshire Hathaway's financial stability. The careers site targets job seekers, including students and graduates, emphasizing training and career advancement. The use of Workday as a platform indicates a strategic partnership for HR and recruitment processes. No direct partnerships or subsidiaries beyond Berkshire Hathaway are indicated on this site.

Security posture

The security posture of the website is moderate. While the site uses a reputable platform (Workday) and serves scripts via CDN with defer and crossorigin attributes, there is no evidence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options. No privacy or cookie policies are present, which is a compliance gap. No contact channels for incident response or vulnerability disclosure are visible. The site does not expose sensitive data or vulnerable libraries based on the provided content. Overall, the security maturity is adequate for a recruitment portal but could be enhanced with better transparency and security controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with GDPR compliance indicators.
  2. Add visible contact information including security incident response contacts.
  3. Enforce HTTPS and include security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options.
  4. Provide a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve transparency and trust.
  5. Enhance website content with more detailed business and compliance information to improve user trust and SEO.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Workday platform, leveraging their candidate experience framework and CDN for asset delivery. JavaScript is used extensively with deferred loading and crossorigin attributes for security. The site lacks visible SEO meta tags beyond basic Open Graph description and image. Performance is moderate given the use of CDN and deferred scripts. Mobile optimization and accessibility are basic but present. There is no evidence of a traditional CMS beyond Workday's platform. Technical risks include lack of security headers and missing compliance documentation which could impact business operations and user trust.
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.
