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

5 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  2. 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';…

  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 Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 384-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

The company operates in the transportation sector, focusing on car rental services with a business model based on direct rentals and franchise opportunities. The website content and structure indicate a focus on the Bulgarian market with international reach. Partnerships with Enterprise Holdings® and a professional website development partner (Versus Software) suggest a stable operational ecosystem. The business targets both individual travelers and corporate clients, offering reservation management and corporate rental programs. The presence of localized popular destinations (Sofia, Varna, Burgas) indicates strategic market segmentation. The company maintains a professional online presence with clear policies and user engagement tools such as newsletters. No direct contact emails or phone numbers are published, relying on contact forms for communication.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security posture with HTTPS enforced and CSRF protection on forms. Cookie consent is implemented in compliance with GDPR. However, the absence of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms represents a compliance gap. No security headers were detected in the provided content, which could improve protection against common web attacks. The use of modern libraries is positive but requires ongoing vulnerability management. No exposed sensitive data or signs of compromise were found. Overall, the site is secure for typical user interactions but could benefit from enhanced transparency and security controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy page including incident response procedures and contact channels to improve transparency and compliance.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet international standards and improve user inclusivity.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries to prevent vulnerabilities from outdated components.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a combination of jQuery, FontAwesome, and other JavaScript libraries to deliver a dynamic and interactive user experience. Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics are integrated for tracking and marketing purposes. The site employs pickadate.js for date selection and typeahead.js for location search autocomplete, enhancing usability. The HTML structure is valid and includes meta tags for SEO and social sharing (Open Graph). The site is mobile optimized with responsive CSS and media queries. No CMS or hosting provider information is explicitly detected. Performance is moderate, with some reliance on external CDNs for assets. The technical implementation supports a professional and user-friendly car rental platform but could improve in security header implementation and 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.
