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

UniCredit S.p.A. is a leading pan-European commercial bank with a strong presence in Italy, Germany, and Central and Eastern Europe. The website serves as an institutional portal providing comprehensive information about the bank's strategy, governance, investor relations, press releases, and sustainability initiatives. The site targets investors, clients, employees, and stakeholders, offering detailed content and digital magazine articles to engage its audience. Technically, the website is built on Adobe Experience Manager, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries and analytics tools, and is hosted likely on Microsoft Azure. However, the SSL/TLS configuration is critically flawed with no valid certificate or enabled protocols, severely impacting security posture. Security headers are implemented well, but the lack of HTTPS undermines these protections. Privacy and cookie policies are present with consent mechanisms, indicating good privacy compliance. Overall, the website is professional and content-rich but requires urgent remediation of SSL issues to ensure secure user interactions.

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

7 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

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

    • 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

  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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

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

UniCredit operates in the finance sector as a large enterprise bank with a diversified business model including retail, corporate, private banking, and digital services. The bank emphasizes ESG and sustainability, reflected in dedicated content and strategic initiatives. The website highlights partnerships such as with Ferrari and showcases investor relations transparency. The bank's market position is strong in Europe, with a focus on unlocking client and employee potential. The digital presence supports brand consistency and trust through comprehensive content and professional design. The use of multiple analytics and marketing tools indicates a mature digital marketing strategy. No suspicious domains or privacy protection concerns were found in WHOIS data, supporting legitimacy.

Security posture

The website demonstrates partial adherence to security best practices with several security headers and a content security policy in place. However, the absence of a valid SSL certificate and lack of TLS protocol support represent critical vulnerabilities, exposing users to potential interception and undermining trust. The lack of DMARC records and no visible incident response or security policy pages indicate gaps in security governance and incident readiness. No known vulnerabilities like Heartbleed or POODLE were detected, but the SSL issues are severe. The site should prioritize obtaining a valid SSL certificate, enabling modern TLS versions, and implementing email security standards to improve overall security posture.

Recommendations

  1. Immediately deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate and enable TLS 1.2 or higher to secure all communications.
  2. Configure HSTS properly with includeSubDomains and preload flags to enforce HTTPS.
  3. Implement DMARC, DKIM, and SPF records to protect email domains from spoofing.
  4. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to enhance transparency and readiness.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and analytics tools to minimize privacy risks and ensure compliance.
Technical notes

Notes

The website uses Adobe Experience Manager CMS, modern JavaScript libraries including jQuery and Swiper.js, and integrates Dynatrace Ruxit for performance monitoring and Adobe Analytics for data collection. The site is mobile-optimized with accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA roles. SEO is supported by meta tags, Open Graph, and Twitter Card data. Hosting appears to be on Microsoft Azure. Performance data was not available, but the presence of multiple scripts and analytics suggests moderate complexity. The SSL/TLS configuration is a critical technical risk. The site uses cookies with a consent banner, indicating compliance with privacy regulations. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern but requires urgent security improvements.
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.
