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

Cosma, a division of Magna International Inc., is a global provider of body, chassis, and engineering solutions primarily serving the automotive industry. The company leverages robust product engineering, tooling capabilities, and process expertise to deliver lightweight and innovative products to its customers worldwide. Positioned as a key group within a large multinational, Cosma targets automotive manufacturers and industry partners with a B2B business model focused on manufacturing and engineering services. Technically, the website is built on the Sitefinity CMS platform and utilizes modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery, Google Tag Manager, and CookiePro for analytics and consent management. The site demonstrates good SEO, accessibility, and mobile optimization practices, with comprehensive privacy and cookie policies in place. However, the absence of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS support significantly undermines the site's security posture. From a security perspective, while the site implements strong content security policies and several security headers, the lack of HTTPS and TLS protocols is a critical vulnerability. This exposes users to potential data interception and undermines trust. No incident response or security policy information is publicly available, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files were found. Overall, the website presents a professional and trustworthy business front with strong content and compliance practices but requires urgent remediation of its SSL/TLS configuration to meet modern security standards and protect user data effectively.

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. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

    • 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

  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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

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

Cosma operates within the transportation and manufacturing sectors as a large enterprise under Magna International. Its market position is strong, supported by a broad portfolio of engineering and manufacturing services for automotive clients. The company benefits from a global reach and a well-established brand presence. The business model focuses on B2B engagements, delivering specialized body and chassis solutions, tooling, and engineering expertise. The website reflects a mature digital presence with integrated marketing and analytics tools, indicating a strategic approach to customer engagement and data-driven decision-making. Partnerships and integrations with marketing platforms like HubSpot and Marketo suggest active lead generation and customer relationship management efforts.

Security posture

The current security posture is moderate but compromised by the lack of HTTPS and valid SSL certificates, which is a critical issue. The presence of a comprehensive Content Security Policy and multiple security headers indicates awareness of security best practices. However, the absence of TLS protocols, HSTS enforcement, OCSP stapling, and session resumption mechanisms weakens the overall security. No public incident response or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are evident, which could impact the organization's ability to respond to security incidents effectively. Privacy compliance is well addressed with GDPR-aligned policies and cookie consent mechanisms. The site should prioritize SSL/TLS implementation to enhance user trust and data protection.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Enable and enforce TLS 1.2 or higher protocols and configure HSTS with includeSubDomains and preload flags.
  3. Implement OCSP stapling and session resumption to improve SSL performance and security.
  4. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Maintain and regularly update Content Security Policy and security headers to mitigate evolving threats.

Notes

The website is built on the Sitefinity CMS platform, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery, Google Tag Manager, and CookiePro for analytics and consent management. The site uses a comprehensive Content Security Policy allowing many trusted domains, indicating a complex integration ecosystem. Hosting appears to be on Microsoft Azure, inferred from HTTP headers. Performance data is unavailable, but the site shows good mobile optimization and accessibility features. SEO is supported by proper meta tags, Open Graph data, and structured JSON-LD breadcrumbs. The lack of HTTPS is a significant technical debt and security risk. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern but requires urgent security upgrades.
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.
