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

DirectLease Private is a Netherlands-based company specializing in private vehicle leasing services, offering customers fixed-price lease packages inclusive of insurance, roadside assistance, and replacement transport. The company positions itself as a leader in customer satisfaction within the private lease market, targeting private individuals seeking convenient and comprehensive leasing solutions. The website is professionally designed with clear navigation and good mobile optimization, reflecting a mature digital presence. Technically, the website is built on Silverstripe CMS 5.4 and leverages modern technologies including Google Tag Manager, Cookiebot for consent management, and Cloudflare for CDN and security. The site demonstrates good SEO practices and moderate performance, with a solid technical foundation supporting its business operations. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS with excellent SSL configuration and implements multiple security headers. The cookie consent mechanism is comprehensive and GDPR compliant, providing users granular control over cookie categories. However, the absence of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and terms of service pages represents areas for improvement to enhance transparency and trust. Overall, the website exhibits a strong security posture and business credibility, with minor gaps in compliance documentation and contact transparency. Strategic enhancements in these areas would further solidify its market position and user trust.

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. Security headers

    Security headers are instructions your web server sends to every visitor’s browser. Missing ones leave visitors more exposed to attacks such as clickjacking and injected scripts.

    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

  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 SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

DirectLease Private operates in the transportation sector, focusing on private lease vehicle offerings in the Dutch market. Its business model bundles vehicle leasing with insurance and support services, appealing to private consumers seeking hassle-free mobility solutions. The company maintains a medium-sized digital footprint with consistent branding and a clear value proposition emphasizing customer satisfaction. Partnerships include regional sites such as directleaseprive.be for Belgium. The use of advanced tracking and advertising networks indicates a data-driven marketing approach. Growth potential is supported by a well-structured online presence and integration with major ad platforms.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, robust SSL configuration, and multiple security headers enhancing protection against common web threats. The integration of Cloudflare provides additional DDoS mitigation and bot protection. Cookie consent is managed via Cookiebot, ensuring GDPR compliance and user privacy control. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. However, the lack of published security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms limits transparency and may impact user trust and regulatory compliance. Addressing these gaps would improve the overall security maturity and readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and user data protection.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  4. Add a comprehensive terms of service page to clarify user rights and obligations.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.

Notes

The website is built on Silverstripe CMS 5.4, a modern and flexible content management system. It uses Google Tag Manager and Cookiebot for analytics and consent management, respectively, and is hosted behind Cloudflare CDN which provides performance optimization and security benefits. Fonts are loaded from Google Fonts, and images are served via Cloudinary, indicating a well-architected media delivery strategy. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and includes SEO-friendly meta tags and Open Graph data. Performance is moderate, with opportunities to optimize loading times further. No deprecated or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided HTML content.
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.
