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

NAVEX is a well-established enterprise specializing in governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) solutions, serving over 13,000 organizations globally. Their offerings include a comprehensive GRC platform (NAVEX One), whistleblowing and incident management software, ethics and compliance training, policy and procedure management, and risk governance services. The company targets organizations seeking to streamline compliance and risk management processes, positioning itself as a trusted leader in the compliance technology market. The website reflects a mature digital presence with professional design, clear navigation, and multiple engagement points such as demo requests and resource libraries. Technically, the site employs modern JavaScript frameworks, integrates with marketing and analytics platforms like Marketo, Google Tag Manager, Microsoft Clarity, and Optimizely, and uses consent management tools to comply with privacy regulations. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforcement, security headers, and reCAPTCHA protections on forms, although explicit security policies and incident response contacts are not publicly detailed. Overall, NAVEX demonstrates a high level of professionalism and trustworthiness, though the lack of WHOIS data limits domain registration transparency. Strategic recommendations include publishing security policies, vulnerability disclosure information, and enhancing incident response visibility to further strengthen trust 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

4 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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. 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 SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

NAVEX operates in the technology sector with a focus on risk and compliance management solutions. Its business model is primarily B2B SaaS supplemented by consulting and professional services. The company leverages a broad partnership ecosystem and serves diverse industries including healthcare, finance, government, and manufacturing. NAVEX's competitive advantage lies in its integrated GRC platform and extensive customer base, supported by a rich resource library and strong brand presence. The company emphasizes compliance simplification and risk visibility, targeting compliance officers, legal teams, HR, and auditors. Growth indicators include frequent content updates, new product offerings, and active customer testimonials. The website's multilingual support and regional content indicate a global market approach. NAVEX's strategic positioning as a comprehensive compliance partner is reinforced by its consistent branding and extensive use of digital marketing and analytics tools.

Security posture

NAVEX's website security posture is robust, featuring HTTPS with strong SSL/TLS configuration and multiple security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options. The use of reCAPTCHA on forms and TrustArc consent management indicates attention to bot mitigation and privacy compliance. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the analysis. However, the absence of a publicly accessible security policy or vulnerability disclosure program limits transparency. Incident response contact information is not explicitly provided, which could hinder rapid communication in case of security events. The site demonstrates good privacy compliance with GDPR-aligned policies and cookie consent mechanisms. Overall, NAVEX shows a mature security approach appropriate for an enterprise handling sensitive compliance data, but could improve by publishing detailed security governance documents and incident response procedures.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and compliance frameworks.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  4. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance transparency around certifications and compliance attestations to build further trust.

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.
