Founded in 1997, it has grown to become one of the largest privately-owned cybersecurity firms, offering a broad portfolio of products including antivirus software, VPN services, password management, and parental controls. The company positions itself as a leader in next-generation cybersecurity, emphasizing privacy, performance, and ease of use. Their market presence is supported by numerous awards and certifications, reflecting strong industry recognition. Technically, the website is built on modern frameworks such as Next.js and React, with integrations for personalization and analytics via Kameleoon and Google Tag Manager. The site is well-optimized for performance, mobile responsiveness, and accessibility, providing an excellent user experience. Security best practices are observed, including HTTPS enforcement and security headers, contributing to a robust security posture. While the WHOIS data for the exact domain www.kaspersky.co.uk is unavailable due to domain naming rules, the website content and branding strongly indicate legitimacy. Privacy and cookie policies are comprehensive and GDPR compliant, with clear transparency about data protection. However, explicit incident response contacts and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms could be improved. Overall, Kaspersky demonstrates a mature digital presence with strong security and privacy practices, making it a trustworthy and professional cybersecurity provider. Strategic recommendations include enhancing incident response visibility and adding a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability reporting.

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

3 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.

    • 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

  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

Kaspersky operates in the competitive cybersecurity market with a focus on both consumer and business segments. Its business model revolves around selling software licenses and subscriptions for antivirus, internet security, and related services. The company leverages partnerships, such as promotional collaborations with Amazon, to enhance market reach. Its extensive product portfolio caters to diverse customer needs, from individual users to enterprises. The company's strong brand reputation, supported by numerous awards and positive customer reviews, positions it well against competitors. Growth indicators include continuous product innovation and global market expansion. The partnership ecosystem includes regional websites and localized offerings, reflecting a broad international footprint.

Security posture

Kaspersky exhibits a high level of security maturity on its website, with HTTPS enforced and multiple security headers implemented. The presence of a transparency page and privacy policies indicates a commitment to data protection and compliance. No obvious vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. However, the absence of explicit incident response contact information and a security.txt file suggests room for improvement in vulnerability disclosure readiness. Compliance with GDPR is evident, but further enhancements in incident response communication would strengthen security culture and customer trust.

Recommendations

  1. Publish explicit incident response contact details on the website to improve vulnerability reporting and customer trust.
  2. Implement and publish a security.txt file to formalize vulnerability disclosure processes.
  3. Enhance visibility and accessibility of the Data Protection Officer contact information to comply with data protection best practices.
  4. Continue to maintain and update privacy and cookie policies to reflect evolving regulations and user expectations.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks and improve user consent management.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack centered on React and Next.js, enabling server-side rendering and optimized performance. Integration with Kameleoon provides advanced personalization and A/B testing capabilities. Google Tag Manager is used for analytics and tag management. The site is well-structured with semantic HTML and accessibility features, supporting a good user experience across devices. Performance is optimized with preloading of critical CSS and fonts. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or headless approach. Hosting details are not explicitly available, but the site uses secure HTTPS with strong SSL configuration. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports scalability, security, and maintainability.
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.
