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

Verif is a French-based business intelligence platform specializing in providing comprehensive financial health and identity verification services for companies worldwide. Leveraging the extensive Altares / Dun & Bradstreet database, Verif offers subscription-based and pay-per-report products that enable businesses to assess the solvency, credit risk, and payment behavior of their partners. The website is professionally designed, targeting B2B customers seeking reliable business data to support decision-making and international expansion. Technically, the site is built on modern frameworks such as React and Next.js, with Material-UI for UI components, and integrates third-party services like Google Tag Manager and Crisp Chat for analytics and customer support. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS enforced, but lacks some security headers and explicit privacy and cookie policies, which are recommended for compliance and trust. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain is a notable anomaly that slightly reduces trustworthiness and should be investigated further. Overall, Verif presents a credible and professional service offering in the financial data sector with room for improvement 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

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 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 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. 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 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

Verif occupies a niche in the financial data and risk assessment market, providing critical services such as International ID verification, financial risk scoring, and detailed business reports. Its competitive advantage lies in the use of the Dun & Bradstreet database, one of the most comprehensive global business data sources. The business model combines subscription services for ongoing needs and individual report purchases for ad hoc requirements. Target customers include companies engaged in international trade, procurement, and credit management. The platform supports growth by enabling safer business partnerships and market entry strategies. The website's clear presentation of products and pricing, along with downloadable report samples, supports customer decision-making. However, the lack of visible contact details and privacy policies may hinder trust for some users. Strategic partnerships appear limited to the Dun & Bradstreet data source, with no other partner domains identified.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS, ensuring encrypted communication, and uses secure input forms for data entry. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against common web attacks like clickjacking and cross-site scripting. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The use of third-party scripts like Google Tag Manager and Crisp Chat introduces a moderate tracking footprint but no direct security risks were identified. The lack of published security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates a gap in security transparency and readiness. Enhancing these areas would improve the overall security posture and compliance with regulations such as GDPR and NIS2.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and configure security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with explicit user consent mechanisms to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  3. Establish and publicize a security incident response plan and vulnerability disclosure policy to enhance transparency and preparedness.
  4. Add clear and accessible contact information including company emails and phone numbers to facilitate user support and trust.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to ensure no vulnerable libraries are included and maintain security hygiene.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using a modern React-based stack with Next.js framework, enabling server-side rendering and good SEO capabilities. Material-UI is used for consistent and responsive UI components. The site loads multiple CSS and JS chunks asynchronously, indicating modular and optimized asset delivery. Google Tag Manager and Crisp Chat are integrated for analytics and customer engagement. The site appears mobile-optimized with responsive design elements. Performance is moderate, with some room for improvement in loading speed and accessibility features. No CMS was detected, suggesting a custom or framework-based content management approach. Hosting provider details were not discernible from the content. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable web presence but could benefit from enhanced accessibility 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.
