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

Ophir Asset Management is a professional Australian investment management firm offering multiple funds including the Ophir Opportunities Fund and the ASX-listed Ophir High Conviction Fund. The company targets wholesale and sophisticated investors, family offices, institutional investors, financial advisers, and private investors. Their website is well-structured, providing comprehensive information about their funds, team, investment philosophy, and news insights. The presence of a Financial Services Guide and privacy policy indicates regulatory compliance and transparency. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Splide.js, and uses WPForms for data collection. The site is mobile-optimized and SEO-friendly, with good performance and accessibility features. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and CSRF protections on forms, though security headers are missing and no cookie consent mechanism is present, which could be improved. The security evaluation shows no critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. However, the lack of a published security policy, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure reduces the overall security maturity. WHOIS data is not publicly available due to auDA privacy policies, but the website's professional presentation and regulatory disclosures support legitimacy. Overall, Ophir Asset Management's website demonstrates a mature digital presence suitable for its financial services business, with room for improvement in privacy compliance and security best practices to enhance trust and regulatory adherence.

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

7 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 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"

    • 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 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

Ophir Asset Management holds a strong market position in the Australian investment management sector, managing multiple funds including an ASX-listed product. Their business model focuses on asset management services targeting sophisticated investors and institutions. The company leverages digital channels for investor engagement through newsletters, insights, and online application portals via partners like Automic. The website content and structure reflect a professional brand with consistent messaging and trust signals such as regulatory disclosures and a Financial Services Guide. The firm appears to maintain a medium-sized operation with a focus on growth and investor relations. Partnerships with application processing services indicate a streamlined investor onboarding process.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses secure form handling with tokens to prevent CSRF attacks. No sensitive data is exposed in the HTML source. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a gap that could expose the site to certain web-based attacks. There is no published security policy or incident response contact information, which limits transparency in security governance. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file is present, reducing the ability for external security researchers to report issues responsibly. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by adopting additional headers, privacy mechanisms, and formal security communication channels.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner or mechanism to comply with GDPR and other privacy regulations.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy page and provide incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  4. Create and host a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance with standards and user experience for all visitors.

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform using modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Splide.js for UI components. WPForms is used for form handling with AJAX and validation, including CSRF tokens. The site loads external resources from reputable CDNs and partners, including Google Tag Manager for analytics and Pardot for marketing automation. Performance is moderate with asynchronous script loading and mobile optimization in place. SEO is supported by Yoast SEO plugin with proper meta tags and structured data in JSON-LD format. There is no indication of outdated or vulnerable libraries in the provided HTML content. Hosting provider details are not explicitly found. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern and well-maintained with opportunities to improve security headers and privacy compliance.
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.
