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. 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

  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

Green Motion holds a strong market position as a leader in environmentally friendly vehicle rentals, targeting eco-conscious travelers worldwide. Their business model leverages franchising to expand global reach, supported by a comprehensive multilingual website and digital marketing ecosystem. The company benefits from trust signals such as a long-established domain, consistent branding, and active social media presence. Revenue streams likely include direct rentals, franchise fees, and loyalty programs. The company’s focus on sustainability differentiates it in the transportation sector, appealing to a growing market segment. Strategic partnerships and affiliate marketing are evident through integrated tracking and advertising platforms, enhancing customer acquisition and retention.

Security posture

The website exhibits a solid security posture with mandatory HTTPS, robust security headers, and CSRF token usage. The presence of a cookie consent banner aligns with GDPR requirements, reflecting privacy-conscious practices. However, the absence of DNSSEC and a published security policy or incident response contacts are notable gaps. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The use of reputable third-party services for analytics and marketing is balanced with privacy controls. To elevate security maturity, Green Motion should consider publishing a security policy, enabling DNSSEC, and providing clear incident response channels to enhance transparency and trust.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to strengthen DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and compliance.
  3. Add an incident response contact email (e.g., security@greenmotion.com) and consider a security.txt file for vulnerability disclosures.
  4. Enhance website accessibility features to meet WCAG standards and improve user inclusivity.
  5. Regularly audit third-party libraries and scripts to ensure no vulnerable components are in use.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern technology stack including Bootstrap 4 for responsive design, Font Awesome for icons, and integrates multiple analytics and marketing tools such as Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity, and social media pixels. Hosting and DNS services are provided via Cloudflare, offering CDN and security benefits. The site demonstrates good SEO practices with comprehensive meta tags and Open Graph data. Performance is moderate, with potential optimization opportunities in script loading and asset management. The CMS is likely Craft CMS, inferred from asset paths. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a scalable and user-friendly platform but could benefit from enhanced DNS security and accessibility improvements.
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.
