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

Mishcon de Reya LLP is a well-established international law firm founded in 1973, headquartered in London with offices in Singapore and Hong Kong. The firm offers a broad range of legal services including corporate law, dispute resolution, employment, real estate, and innovative legal technology solutions through its MDR Group. The website reflects a mature, professional business with a strong market position and a large workforce of over 1400 people. Technically, the site is built on ASP.NET Web Forms with modern web standards, providing good mobile optimization, accessibility, and SEO. Security posture is strong with HTTPS, security headers, and secure forms, although explicit security policies and incident response contacts are not publicly detailed. Privacy and cookie policies are present with consent mechanisms, supporting GDPR compliance. Overall, the site is trustworthy and professionally maintained, though WHOIS data is unavailable, likely due to privacy protection, which slightly reduces transparency.

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

The firm targets corporate and individual clients requiring sophisticated legal services internationally. Its business model centers on providing comprehensive legal advice and consultancy, supported by specialized subsidiaries and partner firms in Asia. The firm leverages thought leadership and innovation through its Mishcon Academy and MDR Lab. The presence of multiple related domains indicates a diversified service ecosystem. The firm’s market position is strong, supported by a large team and a broad service portfolio. The website content and structure emphasize client engagement, expertise, and social responsibility, reflecting a mature and credible business operation.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a high level of security maturity with enforced HTTPS, multiple security headers, and secure form handling. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. However, the absence of a public security policy, incident response information, and vulnerability disclosure reduces transparency and preparedness perception. The firm should consider publishing these to enhance trust and compliance. Privacy compliance is well addressed with clear privacy and cookie policies and consent mechanisms. Overall, the security posture is strong but could be improved with better public security governance documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact details to facilitate reporting and response.
  3. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file.
  4. Enhance transparency by listing the Data Protection Officer contact information.
  5. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a mature ASP.NET Web Forms platform, using standard HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript. The site is well-structured with comprehensive navigation and mega menus supporting a large service portfolio. Performance is moderate, with good mobile responsiveness and accessibility features. The site uses structured data (JSON-LD) effectively for SEO and rich results. There is no evidence of modern CMS usage or cloud hosting provider details in the provided content. The technical stack is stable but could benefit from modernization to newer frameworks for improved performance 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.
