DHL · Transportation · Finland

Partial score · DNS & email only

72/100

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

DHL is a global market leader in logistics and international shipping services, offering a wide range of courier and transport solutions primarily targeting business and individual customers in Finland. The website is professionally designed, leveraging Adobe Experience Manager as its CMS and Adobe Analytics for tracking, indicating a mature digital infrastructure. The presence of a cookie consent mechanism via OneTrust demonstrates attention to privacy compliance, although explicit privacy and terms of service pages were not detected in the provided content. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS implied but lacking visible security headers and incident response information. The WHOIS data for the domain is unavailable, which is unusual for a major brand and slightly reduces trustworthiness, but the website content and branding strongly support legitimacy. Overall, the site is well-structured, accessible, and safe for general audiences.

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

1 finding rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

DHL operates in the transportation sector with a strong global presence and a focus on logistics and supply chain solutions. The Finnish localized site targets both enterprise and individual customers, offering services such as express document and package shipping, volume shipping for businesses, and supply chain management. The business model is service-oriented, relying on extensive logistics infrastructure and partnerships. The website reflects a consistent brand image and professional content, supporting DHL's market leader position. The absence of detailed company registration or VAT information on the site is typical for large multinational brands that centralize such data elsewhere. The digital presence is supported by enterprise-grade CMS and analytics tools, indicating a strategic investment in digital marketing and customer engagement.

Security posture

The website uses HTTPS and implements a cookie consent mechanism, which are positive security and privacy indicators. However, no explicit security headers were detected in the provided content, and there is no visible security policy or incident response contact information. The lack of WHOIS data transparency is a minor concern but may be due to registry restrictions or privacy policies. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the analyzed content. The security score is moderate, reflecting good baseline practices but room for improvement in transparency and header implementation. Compliance with GDPR is suggested by the cookie banner but not fully verifiable due to missing privacy policy details.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages clearly linked on the site.
  2. Implement and verify security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  3. Provide visible contact information for data protection officer and incident response team to enhance trust.
  4. Ensure WHOIS data is properly registered and publicly available or provide justification for privacy protection.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize vulnerabilities.

Notes

The website is built on Adobe Experience Manager, a robust enterprise CMS platform, and uses Adobe DTM and Analytics for marketing and data collection. The site includes modern web technologies such as CSS3, JavaScript, and responsive design elements, ensuring good mobile optimization and accessibility. Performance is moderate, with preloading of fonts and CSS bundles to improve load times. The cookie consent is managed by OneTrust, indicating compliance with privacy regulations. No deprecated or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided content. The technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable digital presence suitable for a global logistics company.
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.
