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

6 findings 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.

    • 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
    • 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

  2. 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';…

  3. 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

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

Nextlane operates in the transportation sector, focusing on software solutions for automotive retail and OEMs. Their business model revolves around SaaS offerings that integrate dealership management, CRM, and AI-powered lead management. The company serves a broad European market with over 10,000 dealerships and 60+ OEM brands, positioning itself as a key player in automotive digital transformation. Partnerships with major cloud providers like AWS and a dedicated career portal indicate organizational growth and ecosystem development. Revenue streams likely include software subscriptions and service contracts. The company emphasizes innovation and customer-centric solutions, leveraging AI to enhance operational efficiency and customer engagement.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and a cookie consent mechanism, reflecting compliance with basic security and privacy standards. However, no explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options were detected, and there is no published security policy or incident response information. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file is present, which limits transparency for security researchers. The lack of exposed sensitive data and secure form implementations are positive indicators. Overall, the security maturity is moderate, with opportunities to enhance trust and compliance by publishing security policies and implementing additional HTTP security headers.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages to improve transparency and compliance.
  2. Add HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen security posture.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information, including a security.txt file, to facilitate vulnerability reporting.
  4. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration information to ensure domain legitimacy and trustworthiness.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and provide explicit contact details such as company emails and phone numbers to improve user trust and compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern tech stack including jQuery and integrations with HubSpot, Google Tag Manager, and LinkedIn Insight for analytics and marketing. The site is multi-lingual and uses structured data (JSON-LD) for SEO enhancement. Performance appears moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts and embedded multimedia content. Mobile optimization is good, though accessibility features are basic and could be improved. The site uses cookie consent management via CookiePro, indicating attention to privacy compliance. Hosting provider details are not explicitly found. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable digital presence with room for optimization in accessibility and security headers.
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.
