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

MahiMarkets is a specialized technology provider delivering institutional-grade trading solutions primarily targeting brokers and proprietary trading firms. Their flagship product, MFXCompass, offers predictive pricing, execution optimization, risk management, and seamless bridge connectivity to liquidity providers. The company positions itself as a niche player promising significant ROI improvements for clients, supported by client testimonials and a professional digital presence. The website reflects a mature business with a domain age dating back to 2008, consistent with their market claims. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including JavaScript ES modules, React framework, and cloud hosting on AWS infrastructure. The site is well-optimized for performance and mobile responsiveness, with good SEO practices and structured data markup enhancing discoverability. Tracking is implemented via Apollo.io, indicating moderate user behavior analytics. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and domain transfer protections but lacks DNSSEC and visible security headers, which are recommended for enhanced security posture. Privacy compliance is partially addressed with clear privacy and terms of service pages, but no cookie consent mechanism or explicit security policies are publicly available. No vulnerabilities or suspicious content were detected. Overall, MahiMarkets presents a trustworthy and professional online presence with strong business credibility and technical maturity. Strategic improvements in security headers, cookie consent, and incident response disclosures would further strengthen their security and compliance posture.

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

6 findings 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 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

  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

  3. 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"

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

MahiMarkets operates in the finance and technology sectors, focusing on B2B SaaS solutions for trading infrastructure. Their competitive advantage lies in delivering measurable ROI through advanced trading technology without requiring clients to replace existing systems. The business model centers on licensing or subscription of the MFXCompass platform. Target customers include brokers and prop firms seeking execution and risk management enhancements. The company maintains a small but established presence with offices in the UK and New Zealand, leveraging cloud infrastructure and modern development practices. Their partnership ecosystem includes social media engagement but no explicit third-party business partners were identified. Growth indicators include a long domain history and active client testimonials. Strategic observations suggest a focus on niche market penetration and technology innovation.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to strong security maturity level with HTTPS enforcement and domain transfer lock. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options represents gaps that could be exploited. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were found, indicating good development hygiene. Privacy policies are present but lack cookie consent mechanisms, which may affect GDPR compliance. Incident response readiness is not publicly documented, and no dedicated security contact channels were found. Overall, the security culture appears professional but could benefit from formalized policies and enhanced technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to protect against DNS spoofing and improve DNS security.
  2. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Add a cookie consent banner/mechanism to comply fully with GDPR and other privacy regulations.
  4. Publish explicit security and incident response policies, including dedicated security contact information.
  5. Consider creating and hosting a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure policy to encourage responsible reporting.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web technologies, including React and ES modules, hosted on AWS infrastructure with media assets served via Supabase. Performance is optimized with fast loading times and mobile responsiveness. SEO is well addressed through meta tags, Open Graph, Twitter cards, and structured JSON-LD data. The site lacks a traditional CMS, indicating a custom or headless architecture. Tracking is implemented via Apollo.io, providing moderate analytics capabilities. Technical risks are minimal, but the absence of security headers and DNSSEC are notable gaps. The site is well-maintained with no broken elements or errors detected.
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.
