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

Murex is a leading provider of capital markets technology solutions, offering an integrated platform (MX.3) that supports trading, treasury, risk, and post-trade operations. The company serves a broad range of financial services clients globally, including banks, investment managers, and corporates. Their business model focuses on enterprise software and managed services, with a strong emphasis on regulatory compliance and risk management. The website reflects a mature digital presence with comprehensive content, strong branding, and extensive use of modern marketing and analytics technologies. However, a critical security gap exists due to the absence of HTTPS, which undermines the security posture despite well-implemented security headers. Privacy policies and cookie consent mechanisms are present and GDPR compliant. Overall, the site demonstrates high professionalism and trustworthiness but urgently requires SSL/TLS implementation to secure user data and communications.

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. 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.

    • Critical

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  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

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

Murex holds a strong market position as a technology leader in capital markets, supported by a large international client base and multiple industry awards. Their offerings include integrated business solutions, managed services, and customer success programs. The company leverages partnerships and a global network to enhance its ecosystem. The website content and structured data confirm a focus on finance and technology sectors, targeting institutional clients. Marketing and analytics tools indicate a sophisticated approach to customer engagement and data-driven insights. The absence of phone and physical address details online suggests a preference for digital contact channels. The domain registration aligns with the business identity, supporting legitimacy.

Security posture

The website employs several security best practices such as strict content security policies, X-Frame-Options, and permissions policies restricting device access. However, the lack of HTTPS and TLS support is a critical vulnerability that exposes users to interception and undermines trust. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which could be improved to enhance security transparency. The site uses modern analytics and marketing scripts but should ensure these do not compromise privacy. Overall, the security posture is moderate but requires immediate remediation of SSL/TLS issues to meet industry standards and compliance requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a valid SSL/TLS certificate and enable HTTPS site-wide immediately.
  2. Configure HSTS with includeSubDomains and preload to enforce secure connections.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to ensure privacy compliance.
  5. Add explicit phone and physical address contact details to enhance trust and accessibility.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal CMS hosted on Platform.sh, utilizing modern front-end frameworks like Bootstrap and integrating multiple third-party services including Google Tag Manager, Matomo analytics, Wistia video hosting, and Marketo marketing automation. The site is mobile optimized with good accessibility and SEO practices. However, performance metrics are unavailable, and the absence of HTTPS is a major technical deficiency. The DNS records appear incomplete or not publicly exposed, which may affect domain resolution reliability. The technical stack is modern and robust but requires security enhancements to protect data integrity and user privacy.
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.
