Risk levelHigh

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

Helka Global Logistics is a Hong Kong-based freight forwarding and logistics company with over 40 years of industry experience. The company offers a broad range of logistics services including ocean, air, rail, and truck freight forwarding, project and exhibition logistics, third-party logistics, and specialty services such as boat and wine logistics. Their business model focuses on providing reliable, cost-competitive, and bespoke supply chain solutions to businesses requiring global transportation and logistics support. The company is part of the Sun Hing Group, indicating a stable corporate backing. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using the Elementor page builder and OceanWP theme, leveraging common web technologies like jQuery and Font Awesome. The site is moderately optimized for performance and mobile devices, with a clear navigation structure and professional design. However, there is room for improvement in SEO and accessibility features. From a security perspective, the website uses HTTPS but lacks important security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and HSTS. No analytics or tracking scripts were detected, which reduces privacy concerns but also indicates limited user behavior insights. The absence of privacy and cookie policies is a compliance gap, especially for GDPR and similar regulations. Contact information is limited to a contact form with no explicit emails or phone numbers displayed. Overall, the website presents a professional and trustworthy image for a mid-sized logistics company but should enhance its privacy compliance and security posture to align with best practices and regulatory requirements.

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.

Priority findings

9 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

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

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

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

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

Helka Global Logistics operates in the transportation sector, targeting businesses that require comprehensive logistics and freight forwarding services. Their competitive advantage lies in their extensive experience, global network, and tailored supply chain solutions. The company’s affiliation with the Sun Hing Group suggests financial stability and potential access to broader resources. The business model is service-oriented, focusing on freight forwarding and third-party logistics, with additional specialty services to differentiate from competitors. The website content and structure indicate a focus on B2B clients, emphasizing reliability, responsiveness, and cost competitiveness. Growth indicators include a diverse service portfolio and technology solutions, although digital marketing and analytics capabilities appear limited. The partnership ecosystem is not explicitly detailed beyond the parent group affiliation.

Security posture

The current security maturity level is moderate. The website enforces HTTPS, which is essential for secure communications. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security exposes the site to potential risks like clickjacking and content injection. No evidence of vulnerable libraries or exposed sensitive data was found, but the absence of explicit security policies and incident response contacts indicates limited preparedness for security incidents. Compliance gaps include missing privacy and cookie policies, which are critical for GDPR and other data protection regulations. The site uses secure forms but does not display security certifications or vulnerability disclosure information. Overall, the security posture is functional but requires enhancements to meet industry best practices and regulatory standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  2. Add essential security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Publish incident response and vulnerability disclosure information with dedicated contact channels.
  4. Enhance contact information visibility by including verified company emails and phone numbers.
  5. Integrate analytics and monitoring tools to improve user insights while maintaining privacy compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a widely used CMS platform (WordPress) with Elementor as the page builder and OceanWP as the theme, indicating a modern and flexible technical infrastructure. The use of standard libraries like jQuery and Font Awesome supports a rich user interface. Performance is moderate, with no major issues detected but potential for optimization exists. Mobile responsiveness is good, ensuring accessibility across devices. However, the absence of advanced SEO meta tags and structured data limits search engine visibility. The site lacks advanced security configurations and analytics integrations, which are areas for technical improvement. Overall, the infrastructure is stable but could benefit from modernization efforts focused on security, SEO, and analytics.
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.
