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

Qantas Business Rewards is a loyalty program designed for Australian businesses to earn and redeem Qantas Points on business-related expenses including flights, hotels, car hire, and more. The website is professionally designed and well-structured, reflecting Qantas Airways' strong market position as a leading airline in Australia. The technical infrastructure leverages Adobe Experience Manager CMS, integrates multiple analytics and advertising platforms, and is optimized for mobile and accessibility. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and no visible vulnerabilities, though some security headers and explicit privacy compliance mechanisms could be improved. The absence of WHOIS data is noted but does not detract significantly from the site's legitimacy given the brand recognition. Overall, the site provides a trustworthy and comprehensive platform for business customers.

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. 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 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

  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 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

Qantas Business Rewards targets Australian businesses seeking to maximize value from travel and business expenses through a points-based rewards system. The program integrates with Qantas Frequent Flyer, offers partnerships with financial institutions and payment providers, and supports business travel management. The business model is based on loyalty incentives driving customer retention and increased spend within the Qantas ecosystem. The presence of multiple partner domains and promotional campaigns indicates a mature partnership ecosystem. The site content and multimedia testimonials reinforce credibility and customer engagement.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and uses reputable third-party analytics and advertising services. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of explicit security headers and a security.txt file suggests room for improvement in security best practices. Incident response information is prominently provided, reflecting transparency and responsiveness to recent cyber incidents. Privacy compliance is partial, with a privacy policy present but no visible cookie consent mechanism. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced with additional controls and disclosures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure and improve transparency.
  3. Deploy a cookie consent banner to comply with privacy regulations and improve user trust.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate risks from external content.
  5. Enhance privacy policy disclosures with clear data retention and user rights information.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Adobe Experience Manager, a robust enterprise CMS, and uses modern JavaScript frameworks and asynchronous loading for performance optimization. Integration with Google Tag Manager and Adobe DTM indicates advanced analytics capabilities. Hosting appears to be managed by Qantas or a trusted CDN provider. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with clear navigation and rich multimedia content. Performance is moderate, with potential for further optimization. No critical technical debt or risks were identified from the HTML content.
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.
