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

PwC España operates as a leading professional services firm offering audit, consulting, tax, legal advisory, and transaction services within Spain. The website reflects a mature digital presence consistent with a global brand, featuring comprehensive service descriptions and a strong focus on generating trust and solving important societal problems. The technical infrastructure leverages Adobe Experience Manager CMS, Adobe Analytics, and OneTrust for cookie consent, indicating a modern and compliant digital environment. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS usage and cookie consent mechanisms, though explicit security headers and WHOIS data are not available for full verification. Overall, the website demonstrates high professionalism and business credibility, with room for improvement in explicit contact information and enhanced security header implementation.

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

5 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

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • 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: Facebook, Twitter, 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.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1
    • 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

PwC Spain is positioned as a major player in the finance and professional services sector, targeting businesses and professionals requiring audit, consulting, tax, legal, and transaction advisory services. The business model is service-oriented, leveraging PwC's global network and brand strength. The website content is tailored to a Spanish audience, emphasizing sector specialization and emerging markets. The lack of visible contact details in the analyzed content suggests contact channels may be located deeper in the site or require user interaction. The use of Adobe's marketing and analytics tools supports data-driven decision-making and customer engagement strategies.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and a cookie consent banner, reflecting compliance with basic security and privacy standards. However, no explicit security headers were detected in the provided content, and WHOIS data was inaccessible due to registry restrictions, limiting domain legitimacy verification. No forms or input fields were identified to assess input validation or CSRF protections. The use of modern JavaScript libraries and Adobe DTM indicates a controlled environment, but continuous monitoring for vulnerabilities in third-party components is recommended. Incident response and security policy information were not found, suggesting potential areas for transparency improvement.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify comprehensive HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Provide clear and accessible contact information including security incident response contacts and data protection officer details.
  3. Publish a detailed privacy policy and terms of service pages linked prominently from the homepage.
  4. Ensure all forms include CSRF tokens and input validation to prevent injection attacks.
  5. Regularly audit third-party libraries and update to mitigate known vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Adobe Experience Manager CMS, utilizing jQuery, Handlebars.js, Purify.js, and JWPlayer for media content. Adobe DTM and Adobe Analytics are used for tag management and user behavior tracking. The site includes a OneTrust cookie consent mechanism, indicating GDPR compliance efforts. Performance appears moderate with good mobile optimization and SEO practices. Accessibility is basic, suggesting room for improvement to meet higher standards. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. The site uses canonical URLs and Open Graph metadata effectively for SEO and social sharing.
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.
