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. 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 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';…

  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

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

AMSOIL INC – KR operates in the transportation and energy sectors, focusing on synthetic lubricants for automotive and motorcycle engines. The business model centers on product sales through local distributors and direct engagement with automotive enthusiasts. The company leverages a family-owned, independent brand identity to differentiate from large oil corporations. Market positioning emphasizes performance and innovation, supported by direct management involvement in product development. The website supports growth through educational content, testimonials, and regional partnerships across multiple countries. The presence of multiple localized partner domains indicates a broad international footprint. Revenue streams likely derive from product sales and distributor partnerships. The company targets a niche segment of high-performance vehicle owners and enthusiasts, with growth potential in the Korean market and beyond.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and domain registration protections (clientDeleteProhibited, clientTransferProhibited, clientUpdateProhibited). The presence of a cookie consent banner powered by TrustArc indicates attention to privacy compliance. However, explicit HTTP security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options are not detected, representing an area for improvement. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were identified in the provided content. The absence of explicit security or incident response policies suggests limited transparency in security governance. Overall, the site is secure for typical business operations but would benefit from enhanced security headers and published security policies to improve trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers including Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to harden the website against common web attacks.
  2. Publish explicit security and incident response policies on the website to improve transparency and demonstrate security governance.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance privacy compliance by linking the privacy policy directly on the Korean site and ensuring GDPR/NIS2 compliance where applicable.
  5. Establish a dedicated security contact or vulnerability disclosure program to facilitate responsible reporting and incident management.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern tech stack including jQuery and Owl Carousel for UI components. Google Tag Manager is used for analytics and marketing tracking, while TrustArc manages cookie consent and privacy compliance. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and good accessibility features. Performance is moderate, with optimized images and structured content. SEO is well implemented with meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. The technical infrastructure supports a professional and user-friendly experience but could be improved with enhanced security headers 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.
