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

Arvato SE operates as a global third-party logistics provider specializing in supply chain management, logistics & fulfillment, transport management, and digital solutions. The company targets businesses in e-commerce and B2B sectors, offering scalable and innovative logistics services. The website demonstrates a strong market presence with multiple localized domains and partner sites, reflecting a large enterprise with a global footprint. Technically, the site is built on TYPO3 CMS with modern frontend tooling and integrates Cookiebot for GDPR-compliant cookie management. However, the main domain suffers from an invalid SSL certificate, impacting security posture. While no critical vulnerabilities are detected, the lack of HTTPS and security headers lowers the overall security score. Privacy compliance is well addressed with clear cookie consent and privacy policies. The website is professionally designed, mobile-optimized, and provides clear navigation and business information, though direct contact emails and phone numbers are not exposed publicly. Strategic improvements in SSL configuration and security headers are recommended to enhance trust and security.

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

6 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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  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';…

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

Arvato SE holds a strong position in the logistics and supply chain industry, leveraging its parent company Bertelsmann's resources. The business model focuses on providing end-to-end logistics solutions including warehousing, transport, and digital services to e-commerce and B2B clients. The company maintains a broad partnership ecosystem and multiple regional domains, indicating extensive market reach. The presence of client success stories and social media engagement supports brand credibility and customer trust. Growth indicators include digital transformation initiatives and automation technologies highlighted in success stories. The company’s strategic focus on sustainability and digital logistics aligns with current market trends.

Security posture

The website's security posture is moderate but impaired by the absence of a valid SSL certificate on the main domain, which is a critical issue. No HTTPS enforcement or HSTS is configured, and security headers are missing, exposing the site to potential risks such as man-in-the-middle attacks and clickjacking. Cookie consent management is robust, leveraging Cookiebot, and no known SSL vulnerabilities or outdated protocols are detected. Incident response and security policies are not publicly disclosed, which may indicate limited transparency in security governance. Overall, the site requires urgent SSL remediation and implementation of security best practices to meet enterprise security standards and regulatory compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate for arvato-supply-chain.at to enable HTTPS and protect user data.
  2. Implement HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to mitigate common web attacks.
  3. Enable HSTS with includeSubDomains and preload to enforce secure connections.
  4. Publish a security policy and incident response information to improve transparency and trust.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to avoid vulnerabilities.
Technical notes

Notes

The website uses TYPO3 CMS, a mature and extensible content management system, combined with modern frontend tooling such as Vite JS for asset bundling. Cookiebot is integrated for cookie consent management, and Google Tag Manager is used for analytics and marketing tags. The site embeds videos via Vimeo and uses Cloudflare services for DNS and CDN. Performance is moderate with a load time of approximately 9 seconds and 40 resources loaded. Mobile optimization and accessibility are good, with responsive design and ARIA roles implemented. DNS configuration lacks DNSSEC and CAA records, which could enhance DNS security. The invalid SSL certificate is a significant technical risk. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern but requires improvements in security configuration and performance optimization.
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.
