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

Alamo Rent A Car Costa Rica, operated by ANC Car S.A., is a medium-sized transportation company specializing in vehicle rentals for tourists and travelers within Costa Rica. The company offers a wide fleet of vehicles, competitive pricing, and a customer-friendly booking experience. The website is well-branded, consistent, and provides clear contact information and social media presence, supporting its market position as a reputable local car rental provider with international brand affiliation. Technically, the site is built on Webflow with modern JavaScript libraries and integrates translation services and analytics tools, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. Security posture is good with HTTPS enforced and no visible vulnerabilities, but lacks some security headers and explicit incident response information. Privacy compliance is partially met with policies present but no visible consent mechanism. Overall, the site is professional and trustworthy, though the absence of WHOIS data reduces domain trustworthiness and should be investigated further.

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. 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 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

    • 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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

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 targets tourists and travelers in Costa Rica, leveraging a business model focused on car rentals and related services such as tour desk offerings. The website's integration with partner domains and use of modern marketing and analytics tools suggests an active digital marketing strategy. The presence of multiple office locations and vehicle categories indicates a broad service offering. The lack of WHOIS transparency may be a privacy measure but could raise questions in some contexts. The company appears to maintain a moderate market position with potential for growth through enhanced digital and security practices.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel for analytics and marketing. However, it lacks important security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, which could mitigate certain attack vectors. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is published, limiting transparency. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. The absence of a cookie consent mechanism despite having a cookie policy may be a compliance gap under GDPR. Overall, the security posture is adequate but could be improved with additional controls and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Add a visible cookie consent banner to comply with GDPR and improve user privacy transparency.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to enhance trust and preparedness.
  4. Consider creating a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Investigate and resolve the lack of WHOIS data to improve domain trustworthiness and transparency.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Webflow platform using modern front-end technologies including jQuery, Swiper.js for sliders, and Weglot for multilingual support. It uses CDN hosting from Webflow and integrates Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel for analytics and marketing. The site is mobile responsive with good SEO metadata and structured navigation. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous loading of scripts and optimized images. Accessibility features are basic but present, such as focus outlines and semantic HTML. There is room for improvement in security headers and privacy compliance mechanisms.
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.
