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

RC International is a consultancy firm specializing in citizenship and residence by investment programs, primarily focusing on Malta. The company targets high net worth individuals and families seeking to obtain second citizenship or residence for business, education, or lifestyle purposes. Their services include handling documentation and liaising with immigration authorities to facilitate smooth application processes. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with clear service offerings and contact channels. Technically, the site uses modern JavaScript frameworks such as Vue.js and Nuxt.js, along with Bootstrap for styling, and integrates Google Analytics for visitor tracking. The site is mobile-optimized and provides a good user experience with clear navigation. Security-wise, HTTPS is enabled, and a cookie consent banner is present, but there is a lack of explicit security policies, incident response information, and advanced security headers. WHOIS data aligns well with the business claims, showing consistent registrant information without privacy protection, supporting the site's legitimacy. Overall, the site is functional and professional but could improve in privacy and security transparency.

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

10 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

  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

  3. 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';…

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

RC International operates in the real estate and immigration consultancy sector, focusing on citizenship and residence by investment programs. Their competitive advantage lies in personalized consultancy, transparent reporting, and acting as intermediaries for high net worth clients globally. The business model is service-based, generating revenue through consultancy fees and application facilitation. The target market includes affluent individuals seeking global mobility and wealth preservation. The company maintains partnerships with law firms and professional advisors, enhancing its market reach. Growth indicators include a regularly updated insights section and multiple residence and citizenship program offerings. The company appears to be small-sized with a focused niche market in Malta.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with HTTPS enabled and a cookie consent mechanism indicating some privacy awareness. However, it lacks visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and others that enhance protection against common web attacks. There is no published security policy or incident response contact information, which are important for transparency and trust. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The use of modern frameworks reduces some risks, but the absence of explicit security documentation and headers suggests room for improvement in security maturity and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages to improve legal compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement and disclose a security policy including incident response procedures and contact channels.
  3. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection.
  4. Improve accessibility features to meet WCAG standards for better inclusivity.
  5. Enhance transparency on data retention and user tracking practices to align with GDPR and other privacy regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern JavaScript frameworks Vue.js and Nuxt.js, supported by Bootstrap 3.3.7 for styling. It uses Google Fonts and FontAwesome for typography and icons. Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager are integrated for analytics and marketing purposes. The site is responsive and optimized for mobile devices. Performance is moderate, with preloading of scripts and lazy loading of images. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or framework-based solution. Hosting provider details are not evident from the HTML content. The technical implementation is solid but could benefit from enhanced security headers and improved accessibility 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.
