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. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

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

Praxis operates in the finance sector, focusing on bespoke professional services for private wealth management, corporate administration, pensions, and yacht services. Their business model centers on providing tailored, compliant, and efficient financial solutions across multiple jurisdictions. The company targets high-net-worth individuals, families, and international corporate clients, leveraging a global network and multi-jurisdictional expertise. Their market positioning is strong, supported by a long history since 1972 and a medium-sized organizational footprint. The website content and structured data confirm a consistent brand message and comprehensive service offerings, with clear segmentation by service lines and locations. The presence of detailed team profiles and news insights indicates active engagement and thought leadership. No parent or subsidiary companies are explicitly identified, suggesting an independent operation. The company demonstrates a mature digital marketing strategy with integrated analytics and social media presence.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate and implements key security headers such as HSTS, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, Referrer-Policy, and Permissions-Policy, indicating adherence to security best practices. No exposed sensitive information or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. Forms appear to be standard with no explicit CSRF tokens visible, but given the professional nature of the site, it is likely that backend protections exist. The cookie consent mechanism is robust, supporting GDPR compliance. However, no explicit security policy or incident response contact information is published, which could be improved to enhance transparency and readiness. Overall, the security posture is strong with minor gaps in public security documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and controls.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Ensure all forms implement CSRF protection and validate inputs server-side.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries for vulnerabilities and update accordingly.
  5. Consider implementing a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using React, with additional libraries such as Glide.js for sliders and Lottie for animations, indicating a modern and interactive frontend. Cookie consent is managed via CookieScan, and analytics are implemented using Google Analytics and LinkedIn Insight Tag. The site uses structured data (JSON-LD) for local business and website schema, enhancing SEO. Performance appears moderate with responsive images and adaptive content delivery. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with semantic HTML and ARIA roles. No CMS is explicitly identified, but API paths suggest Umbraco. Hosting provider details are not evident. The technical implementation is solid, with opportunities to enhance security transparency and performance monitoring.
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.
