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

NAV Fund Services operates as a leading fund administrator providing comprehensive operational support, reporting, technology, and investor services to funds globally. The company positions itself as a top global hedge fund administrator and a leader in digital asset fund administration, serving a broad client base including family offices, emerging managers, and multi-manager platforms. Their business model centers on delivering premium fund administration services enhanced by proprietary technology and personalized client service. The website reflects a mature digital presence with professional design, clear navigation, and mobile optimization. Technically, the website leverages modern frameworks such as Next.js and React, with integrations including Google Tag Manager and CookieHub for analytics and cookie consent management. The site demonstrates good performance and accessibility standards, though some opportunities exist to enhance security headers and publish comprehensive privacy and security policies. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and includes cookie consent mechanisms, but lacks explicit security headers and publicly available incident response or vulnerability disclosure information. The absence of WHOIS registration data raises concerns about domain legitimacy, although the professional site content and industry awards mitigate some risk. Overall, NAV Fund Services presents a strong business and technical profile with room for improvement in transparency and security documentation. Strategic recommendations include publishing privacy and security policies, enhancing security headers, and clarifying domain registration details to bolster trust and compliance.

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.

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

NAV Fund Services holds a strong market position as a top-tier fund administrator with a focus on hedge funds, digital assets, closed-end funds, family offices, and multi-manager platforms. Their competitive advantage lies in combining expert service with innovative proprietary technology. The company targets institutional clients and fund managers seeking scalable, compliant, and technologically advanced fund administration solutions. The presence of numerous industry awards and a large client base (2,300+ clients) indicates robust growth and market acceptance. The business model likely generates revenue through service contracts and technology licensing. The website's client stories and case studies demonstrate a well-established partnership ecosystem and a focus on operational excellence.

Security posture

The website exhibits a moderate to good security posture with mandatory HTTPS encryption and a cookie consent mechanism in place. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The lack of published security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure programs limits transparency and preparedness indicators. Compliance with GDPR is implied by cookie consent but not explicitly documented. Overall, the security maturity is adequate for a financial services website but could be enhanced by formalizing security governance and communication.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages to improve compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement and publish a security policy and incident response plan with clear contact channels for security issues.
  3. Add essential security headers such as CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to strengthen web security.
  4. Clarify domain registration details and ensure WHOIS information is accurate and publicly available to enhance legitimacy.
  5. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program and security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting and transparency.

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.
