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

Stoneweg Asset Management SA is a global alternative investment group specializing in Real Assets, established in 2015 and headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland. The company operates 23 offices worldwide across Europe, the US, and Singapore, and is part of the SWI Group. Stoneweg offers investment product structuring, mandate management, and experiential ventures in sectors such as sport, culture, entertainment, and gastronomy. The website reflects a professional and comprehensive digital presence with strong branding and trust indicators such as INREV membership and PRI signatory status. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using modern technologies including Bootstrap, jQuery, and Mapbox GL JS for interactive maps. SEO is enhanced by Yoast SEO plugin, and privacy compliance is robust with GDPR cookie consent mechanisms and privacy policies clearly presented. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility features. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced, anti-spam measures, and email obfuscation, though HTTP security headers are not explicitly detected. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found. The absence of WHOIS domain registration data is a concern for domain trust but does not detract from the overall legitimacy of the business presence. Overall, Stoneweg's website demonstrates a mature digital infrastructure supporting its business model, with recommendations to enhance security headers and incident response disclosures to further strengthen trust and compliance.

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. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

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

Stoneweg holds a strong market position as a large alternative investment firm focused on Real Assets with a diversified business model including experiential ventures. Its global footprint and affiliation with SWI Group provide competitive advantages. The company targets institutional investors and real estate professionals, leveraging a multi-strategy approach. The website content and certifications indicate a commitment to ESG and regulatory compliance, supporting growth and partnership opportunities. The presence of multiple offices and detailed contact information signals operational scale and client accessibility.

Security posture

The security maturity level is good with HTTPS, cookie consent, and anti-spam protections in place. No immediate vulnerabilities or data exposures were identified. However, the lack of explicit security headers and absence of published incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies indicate areas for improvement. GDPR compliance is evident, but incident response readiness and security culture indicators could be enhanced by publishing dedicated security policies and contact channels. Overall, the security posture supports business continuity but should evolve to meet higher assurance standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  2. Publish an incident response policy and provide dedicated security contact channels (e.g., security@ or abuse@ emails).
  3. Conduct regular security audits of third-party plugins and update them promptly to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance website accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.
  5. Consider adding a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern WordPress CMS with Bootstrap for responsive design and jQuery for interactivity. Mapbox GL JS is used for advanced mapping of global office locations. SEO is managed via Yoast SEO plugin, and privacy compliance is handled by Complianz GDPR plugin. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts and CDN usage for fonts and libraries. The site is mobile optimized and includes basic accessibility features. Technical risks include dependency on multiple third-party plugins which require ongoing maintenance to avoid vulnerabilities. Hosting provider details are not disclosed, limiting infrastructure assessment.
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.
