ImmuniWeb, a global application security company with offices in the heart of London, is launching a transformative initiative for UK businesses with its free Website Security and Privacy Certification Programme. The ImmuniWeb® Community Edition, which has notched up over 380 million successful scans since 2019, now offers PDF certificates and digital badges to websites achieving an “A” grade or better in its website security, privacy, or SSL tests.
For London-based companies and clients across the UK, this programme promises to enhance digital trust and compliance at no cost, which for some businesses will act as a lifeline while tackling an ever more complex cybersecurity landscape.
Operating from its Bloomsbury Square base, ImmuniWeb is ideally placed to support London’s thriving tech community and the broader UK market. The Community Edition’s free tools have long been a favourite among cybersecurity professionals, software engineers, and compliance specialists worldwide, providing a solid baseline assessment of web application security, privacy, and encryption. Now, with the addition of free certificates and badges, UK firms, from startups in Shoreditch to established players across the city and UK-wide, can demonstrate their dedication to top-notch digital standards. These credentials, supported by data contributing to Verizon’s 2025 Data Breach Investigations Report (DBIR), offer a concrete way to build confidence with customers and partners.
For London and UK clients, the advantages are obvious. A PDF certificate or digital badge, earned by excelling in one of the Community Edition’s thorough tests, acts as a seal of quality, helping businesses distinguish themselves in a crowded market. Whether it’s a retailer ensuring secure online purchases or a tech firm protecting sensitive data, the certification provides a swift, cost-free means to signal reliability. All that’s required is a free scan, a grade of “A” or “A+,” and the downloadable accolades are yours – a process streamlined by ImmuniWeb’s London team to suit local demands.
The initiative arrives with fresh enhancements to the Community Edition, introduced since early 2025, making it even more valuable for UK users. The Email Security Test now checks MTA-STS, a crucial feature for businesses dependent on secure communication. The Website Security Test has been broadened to examine 10 additional HTTP headers and scans for malicious or compromised content – essential for London’s digitally savvy firms. Meanwhile, the SSL Security Test addresses emerging threats like the Marvin Attack, alongside checks for certificate revocation and weak keys. The Dark Web Exposure Test, upgraded with a quick-scan option and improved detection of phishing and squatted domains, gives UK companies a sharper tool to monitor cyber risks.
For ImmuniWeb’s London office, this programme is more than a service. It’s a pledge to empower UK businesses. While it doesn’t replace the company’s award-winning enterprise solutions, the Community Edition offers a strong starting point for smaller firms or those tightening their belts amid economic challenges. From Bloomsbury Square, ImmuniWeb is helping London and the UK bolster their digital defences, one free certificate at a time. Businesses eager to get involved can simply run a scan, aim for that “A” grade, and download their badge of honour – proof that in the cybersecurity stakes, London has a new partner.
