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

Daimler Truck AG is a leading global manufacturer of commercial vehicles, operating over 40 production sites worldwide with a workforce exceeding 100,000 employees. The company offers a broad portfolio including light, medium, and heavy-duty trucks, buses, coaches, and tailored financial services. Their market position is strong as one of the largest commercial vehicle manufacturers globally, supported by a network of subsidiaries and brands such as Freightliner, Mercedes-Benz Trucks, and FUSO. The website reflects a mature digital presence with professional design, clear navigation, and comprehensive corporate information. Technically, the site is built on TYPO3 CMS, integrates modern consent management via Usercentrics, and uses Matomo for analytics, indicating a focus on privacy and compliance. Security posture is good with HTTPS enforced and no visible vulnerabilities, though explicit security headers and a public security policy are absent. WHOIS data is unavailable, which slightly impacts transparency but the website's content and branding strongly support legitimacy. Overall, the site is well-structured, GDPR compliant, and professionally maintained.

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

3 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 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.

    • 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

Daimler Truck AG operates in the transportation sector with a focus on manufacturing and financial services for commercial vehicles. Their business model includes direct sales of trucks and buses alongside financial products to support customers. The company targets commercial fleet operators, investors, and job seekers. Their extensive subsidiary network and global production footprint provide competitive advantages and market reach. The website's integration of multiple languages and detailed corporate governance information signals transparency and investor relations focus. Partnerships and brand diversification enhance their ecosystem. Growth indicators include innovation in e-mobility and sustainability initiatives. The company maintains a strong digital presence with active social media channels and a dedicated career portal, supporting talent acquisition and brand engagement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with HTTPS enabled and use of consent management tools to comply with privacy regulations. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options represents an area for improvement. There is no publicly available security policy or incident response contact, which could enhance transparency and readiness. The lack of a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file limits external security collaboration. Overall, the security posture is good but could be strengthened by adopting additional best practices and publishing security-related documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response information on the website to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Include contact details for a Data Protection Officer or security team to enhance compliance and communication.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerabilities are introduced.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a robust and scalable content management system suitable for enterprise use. It integrates Usercentrics for consent management, ensuring GDPR compliance, and Matomo for privacy-focused analytics. The site uses modern web standards with responsive design and accessibility features, including the eyeAble visual assistant tool. Performance appears optimized with asynchronous script loading and optimized images. SEO is enhanced through structured data (JSON-LD) and Open Graph metadata. No hosting provider details were identified from the HTML content. The technical stack reflects a mature digital infrastructure with opportunities to enhance security headers and incident response capabilities.
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.
