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

1 finding rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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 SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

The company targets a niche financial sector focusing on alternative investment strategies, serving financial advisors and asset managers. Its business model revolves around providing a digital marketplace platform that facilitates access and distribution of alternative investment products. The domain age of over two decades supports its established market presence. The use of advanced marketing and analytics tools indicates a data-driven approach to customer engagement and growth. However, the absence of visible direct contact information and security policies suggests areas for transparency improvement. The company maintains consistent branding and leverages social media channels like Twitter and LinkedIn to enhance its market reach.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and employs Cloudflare services, which contribute to a secure infrastructure. Cookie consent and privacy policies are implemented in compliance with GDPR, reflecting a commitment to data protection. However, the lack of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates gaps in security transparency and readiness. Security headers beyond HTTPS are not clearly present, which could be improved to mitigate risks. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from enhanced documentation and header configurations.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to strengthen DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement comprehensive security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and provide clear incident response contact information.
  4. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Enhance website accessibility to meet higher compliance standards and improve user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using popular plugins like WPBakery Page Builder and Slider Revolution, optimized with NitroPack for performance. It integrates multiple analytics and marketing tools including Google Analytics, HubSpot, LinkedIn Insight Tag, and Facebook Pixel, indicating a sophisticated marketing infrastructure. Hosting and DNS are managed via Cloudflare, providing reliable performance and security. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and includes SEO best practices such as meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). Some technical improvements could be made in accessibility and security header implementation to further enhance robustness.
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.
