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

The International Road and Transport Union (IRU) operates a professional and comprehensive website serving as the global voice for road transport and logistics. The organization supports drivers and transport companies worldwide, offering advocacy, certification, and trade facilitation services. The website demonstrates a mature digital presence with modern CMS technology, integrated analytics, and compliance with privacy regulations. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms, though explicit security policies and incident response information are not publicly available. The absence of WHOIS data limits domain trust verification but does not detract significantly from the overall credibility given the professional presentation and consistent branding.

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 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. GDPR outside view

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

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  3. 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

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

IRU is positioned as a leading global membership organization in the transportation sector, targeting bus, coach, taxi, and truck operators. Its business model revolves around advocacy, certification, and facilitating trade and transit. The website content and structure reflect a large, enterprise-level organization with a global footprint. The presence of multiple social media channels and detailed membership information indicates a well-established partnership ecosystem and active engagement with stakeholders. The organization's focus on professional excellence and safety further strengthens its market position.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with good SSL configuration and includes standard security headers such as Referrer-Policy. Secure login forms and cookie consent mechanisms are implemented, indicating attention to user data protection. However, the lack of explicit security policy pages, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms suggests room for improvement in transparency and readiness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the content. Recommendations include adding security.txt, enhancing security headers, and publishing incident response information to improve trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to enhance transparency.
  2. Implement a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability reporting.
  3. Enhance HTTP security headers by adding Content Security Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks.
  5. Maintain updated WHOIS information to improve domain trust and legitimacy.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal 10, a modern and widely supported CMS, ensuring a robust content management framework. Integration with Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag, and Twitter tracking indicates a comprehensive marketing and analytics setup. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility considerations. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in load speed achievable through optimization of third-party scripts and image assets. The technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable online presence suitable for a global organization.
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.
