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

ASYAD Careers website serves as the official job portal for ASYAD Group, a major logistics and transportation conglomerate in Oman. The site provides detailed job listings primarily in maritime, shipping, and production control sectors, targeting professionals seeking employment within Oman’s logistics industry. The website is professionally designed with consistent branding and clear navigation, supporting a positive user experience for job seekers. The technical infrastructure is based on ASP.NET Web Forms with Bootstrap and jQuery, hosted by Ooredoo, indicating a stable and enterprise-grade environment. However, the site lacks explicit privacy and cookie policies, which is a gap in compliance and user transparency. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS usage and CSRF tokens but missing security headers and advanced protections. Overall, the site is legitimate, well-branded, and functional but would benefit from enhanced privacy and security measures to align with best practices and regulatory requirements.

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. 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 Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

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

    • 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

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

ASYAD Group operates in the transportation and logistics sector in Oman, offering services including ports management, freight, public services, and shipping operations. The careers site reflects a large enterprise with multiple subsidiaries such as MWASALAT and ASYAD Shipping. The business model focuses on service provision in logistics and maritime operations, targeting local and regional professionals. The company maintains a strong market position in Oman with official digital presence and social media engagement. The detailed job descriptions and structured application process indicate a mature HR and recruitment function. The absence of privacy and cookie policies suggests an area for improvement in regulatory compliance and user trust. The company’s partnership ecosystem includes subsidiaries and related entities within Oman’s transport sector.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and includes CSRF tokens in forms, demonstrating basic security hygiene. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security reduces the overall security posture. No vulnerable libraries were detected, but the use of older Bootstrap 3.3 and jQuery versions may pose risks if not regularly updated. No incident response or security contact information is provided, limiting transparency in security management. The site does not display privacy or cookie policies, which is a compliance gap. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but could be significantly improved by implementing recommended headers, updating libraries, and publishing security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear user consent mechanisms to improve compliance and transparency.
  2. Add and configure security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-XSS-Protection, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Regularly update third-party libraries such as Bootstrap and jQuery to their latest secure versions to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Publish incident response and security contact information to improve trust and readiness for security events.
  5. Conduct periodic security audits and penetration testing to identify and remediate potential vulnerabilities proactively.

Accessibility features are basic but present. SEO optimization is basic with proper meta tags but no advanced structured data or Open Graph tags detected.

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.
