Risk levelLow

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

Kaspersky is a globally recognized cybersecurity company founded in 1997, offering a wide range of security solutions for home users and businesses. The company holds a strong market position supported by numerous industry awards and a comprehensive portfolio including antivirus, internet security, VPN, password management, and enterprise-grade security services. Their website reflects a mature digital presence with professional design, clear navigation, and extensive regional localization. Technically, the website leverages modern frameworks such as React and Next.js, integrates multiple analytics and marketing tools, and demonstrates excellent performance and mobile optimization. Security best practices are well implemented, including HTTPS enforcement and security headers, with no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. Privacy compliance is robust, with clear privacy and cookie policies aligned with GDPR requirements. The security posture is strong, though the absence of a public security.txt and explicit incident response contacts suggests room for improvement in vulnerability disclosure and incident management transparency. The WHOIS data is unavailable, likely due to privacy protections, which slightly impacts domain registration transparency but does not detract from the overall legitimacy given the company's established reputation. Overall, Kaspersky's website and digital infrastructure present a secure, trustworthy, and professional front that aligns with its market leadership in cybersecurity solutions.

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. 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

  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 as a large technology entity specializing in cybersecurity software and services. Its business model focuses on direct sales of security products to consumers and enterprises, supported by a partner ecosystem and extensive regional localization. The company targets both home users and businesses, offering tiered plans and specialized solutions for various platforms. Revenue streams likely include product licenses, subscriptions, and managed security services. The company maintains a strong brand presence with consistent messaging and multiple trust signals such as awards and customer reviews. Strategic partnerships and a global footprint indicate a mature and expansive market approach.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a high level of security maturity with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and no visible security flaws in the HTML content. Privacy policies and cookie consent mechanisms are in place, supporting GDPR compliance. However, the lack of a publicly accessible security.txt file and explicit incident response contact channels limits transparency in vulnerability disclosure and incident management. No evidence of exposed credentials or vulnerable libraries was found. The security score is high, reflecting good practices but with minor gaps in incident response visibility.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a security.txt file at the root domain to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  2. Provide explicit incident response contact information, such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Enhance transparency by listing the Data Protection Officer contact details on the privacy or compliance pages.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks and improve user trust.
  5. Maintain and update security headers and SSL configurations to adhere to evolving best practices.

It integrates multiple analytics and marketing technologies, including Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, and Kameleoon for A/B testing and personalization. The site uses optimized images and fonts, contributing to performance. Accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA attributes are present, supporting usability. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or headless architecture. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. Overall, the technical infrastructure is robust, modern, and well-optimized for user experience and SEO.
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.
