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

2 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.

    • 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

  2. 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

ASFINAG holds a strong market position as the primary operator and financier of Austria's motorway infrastructure. Its business model relies on toll collection and related services, targeting both private and commercial vehicle users, including Lkw and bus operators. The company maintains a broad partnership ecosystem with dedicated service domains for e-commerce (Mautshop), traffic safety, career portals, and real-time traffic information. The presence of investor relations and press sections indicates transparency and engagement with stakeholders. The company leverages digital channels effectively to reach its audience and supports multilingual access. Growth indicators include digital toll products with over a million users and ongoing infrastructure projects.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR requirements. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response information, and vulnerability disclosure reduces transparency and preparedness perception. The use of third-party scripts and social media embeds introduces typical risks but appears managed. Recommendations include publishing explicit security and incident response policies and implementing security headers to enhance protection.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Add security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security if not already present.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack centered on Vue.js for frontend interactivity, supported by Axios for HTTP requests and Flickity for sliders. It employs MicroModal for modals and LoadJS for script loading management. Hosting is via Azure CDN, providing fast content delivery and scalability. The site is well-structured with semantic HTML and accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA labels. SEO is supported by proper meta tags including Open Graph for social sharing. Performance is optimized with preloading of critical scripts and responsive images. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary solution. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a high-quality user experience with room for enhanced security header implementation.
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.
