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

9 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

    • High

      Missing Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

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 with a focus on international logistics, offering comprehensive services that cover multiple transport modes and support functions. The business model is service-oriented, catering primarily to corporate clients needing efficient freight forwarding and transport solutions. The website content and testimonials suggest a strong customer satisfaction and a stable market presence since 2010. The partnership with xsped.net for client extranet access indicates integration with third-party logistics platforms, enhancing operational efficiency. The company maintains a subsidiary or related entity, AB Arco Transport OY, likely serving regional markets. The multilingual website supports Estonian, English, Finnish, and Russian, broadening the target audience across Northern and Eastern Europe. The business leverages digital marketing and analytics tools to optimize customer engagement and track performance.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate, ensuring encrypted communication. There is no evidence of exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries in the HTML content. The use of security and performance plugins like WP Rocket and Accessibility Light contributes to a secure and accessible user experience. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HSTS, and X-Frame-Options suggests potential areas for enhancement. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies are published, which could improve transparency and trust. The website does not appear to be behind a WAF or present any blocking mechanisms, indicating open accessibility. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from additional hardening and documented policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting and improve security transparency.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate risks from vulnerable components.
  4. Enhance form security by implementing robust input validation and anti-CSRF measures.
  5. Consider adding explicit incident response contact information and security policies to build user trust.

The website demonstrates good mobile optimization and accessibility features, including an accessibility toolbar.

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.
