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

The International Association of Insurance Supervisors (IAIS) is a globally recognized voluntary membership organization comprising insurance supervisors and regulators from over 200 jurisdictions. Established in 1994, it serves as the global standard-setting body for insurance supervision, aiming to promote effective, consistent supervision to ensure fair, safe, and stable insurance markets worldwide. The IAIS provides key services including standard setting, capacity building, implementation assessments, and financial stability monitoring, positioning itself as a leader in the insurance regulatory space. Technically, the IAIS website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform utilizing Elementor and Revolution Slider for content presentation. It employs Google reCAPTCHA for form security and Matomo for privacy-conscious analytics. The site is well-optimized for mobile devices, features good SEO practices, and maintains a professional design and user experience. From a security perspective, the website enforces HTTPS with a strong SSL configuration and uses reCAPTCHA to protect forms. While explicit security headers are not fully evident, no vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. Privacy and cookie policies are comprehensive and GDPR compliant, though the site lacks a published security policy or incident response contact details. Overall, the IAIS website demonstrates a high level of professionalism, security, and compliance appropriate for an international regulatory organization. The lack of WHOIS data is mitigated by the site's strong trust indicators and consistent branding. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing security policies, and improving accessibility compliance to further strengthen the site's security posture and user trust.

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

IAIS holds a strong market position as the global standard-setting body for insurance supervision, serving a large international membership base. Its business model is centered on voluntary membership, standard development, and supervisory support, targeting insurance regulators and supervisors worldwide. The organization benefits from a broad partnership ecosystem and a comprehensive portfolio of services including capacity building and implementation assessments. The website reflects a mature digital presence with clear content relevance and professional branding, supporting IAIS's role as a trusted authority in the insurance regulatory domain.

Security posture

The IAIS website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, use of Google reCAPTCHA, and no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive information. However, the absence of explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and lack of published incident response or security policies represent areas for improvement. The site does not expose contact channels for security incidents or vulnerability disclosures, which could enhance transparency and trust. Overall, the security measures align well with the organization's profile but could be strengthened with additional best practices and documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness for security events.
  3. Enhance website accessibility to meet higher compliance standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  4. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Maintain regular security audits and update third-party libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

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.
