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

RBC Wealth Management operates as a prominent financial services provider specializing in wealth management and tailored financial strategies for high net worth individuals, families, and businesses primarily in the British Isles and Europe. The website reflects a strong brand identity consistent with its parent company, the Royal Bank of Canada, and offers a professional digital presence with clear navigation and relevant content focused on wealth growth and protection. Technically, the website is built on WordPress and leverages modern web technologies including Google Tag Manager, Brightcove video player, and OneTrust for cookie consent management. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization, accessibility, and SEO practices, although performance is moderate and could benefit from further optimization. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and implements cookie consent mechanisms, but lacks visible security headers and published security policies or incident response contacts. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain raises concerns about domain registration transparency, although the website content and branding strongly suggest legitimacy. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. Overall, the website presents a trustworthy and professional front for RBC Wealth Management but would benefit from enhanced transparency regarding privacy policies, security practices, and domain registration details to strengthen user 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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

  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

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

RBC Wealth Management holds a strong market position as a division of the Royal Bank of Canada, targeting affluent clients seeking comprehensive wealth management solutions. The business model focuses on personalized financial advisory, investment management, and family/business financial planning. The website's content and structure indicate a mature digital strategy aligned with enterprise standards. The company leverages partnerships and a global brand to maintain competitive advantages. Growth indicators include multi-region language support and integration of advanced marketing and analytics tools. Strategic observations suggest opportunities to improve transparency and direct client engagement channels on the website.

Security posture

The security posture of the website is solid in terms of HTTPS enforcement and cookie consent compliance, reflecting awareness of GDPR and privacy regulations. However, the lack of published security policies, incident response contacts, and security.txt files indicates gaps in transparency and readiness for security incidents. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive information were found, but the absence of security headers and WHOIS data transparency could pose risks. Compliance with GDPR appears partial, with cookie consent mechanisms present but privacy policy visibility limited. Incident response readiness and data protection officer contact information are not publicly available, suggesting areas for improvement.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page clearly linked from the homepage and footer.
  2. Implement and display a security policy and incident response contact information to enhance transparency.
  3. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to improve security posture.
  4. Verify and update WHOIS registration details to ensure domain registration transparency and trust.
  5. Enhance website performance optimization to improve user experience and SEO rankings.

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with integration of Google Tag Manager for analytics and Brightcove for video content delivery. It uses Google Fonts for typography and OneTrust for cookie consent management, indicating compliance with privacy regulations. The site is mobile optimized and accessible, with good SEO metadata including Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in loading speed and resource optimization. No outdated or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided content. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and compliant digital presence but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and performance tuning.
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.
