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. 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

Harmoney holds Australian Credit and Financial Services Licences, reinforcing its legitimacy in the finance sector. The company benefits from strong customer trust demonstrated by high ratings and multiple industry awards. Its business model focuses on personalized loan offerings with flexible terms and transparent fees. The presence of investor relations and help center domains indicates a well-structured operational ecosystem. Marketing efforts utilize advanced tracking and retargeting technologies while maintaining privacy compliance. The company’s parent entity, Harmoney Corp Limited, suggests a broader corporate structure supporting its Australian operations.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with strong SSL configuration and integrates security monitoring tools such as TrackJS. Security best practices include encrypted storage for analytics and consent mechanisms for cookies. However, the absence of explicit security headers like X-Frame-Options and a public security policy or incident response contact reduces transparency. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The security score is high but could be improved by publishing formal security documentation and vulnerability disclosure channels.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and explicitly configure security headers including X-Frame-Options and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against clickjacking and MIME sniffing.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices, data protection measures, and compliance certifications.
  3. Establish and publicize an incident response contact channel such as security@harmoney.com.au to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Regularly review and update privacy and cookie policies to maintain compliance with evolving regulations and enhance user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the SilverStripe CMS platform, utilizing modern JavaScript libraries and analytics tools including RudderStack, FullStory, and Google Tag Manager. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization and accessibility features. Performance is moderate with room for optimization in loading speed. The technical stack supports extensive user tracking balanced with privacy compliance mechanisms. No critical technical debt or risks were identified, but continuous monitoring and updates are recommended to maintain security and performance standards.
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.
