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

5 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

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

    • 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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

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

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

JLG Industries maintains a strong market position as a manufacturer of access equipment with a comprehensive product portfolio and supporting services such as parts distribution, training, and fleet management. The business model focuses on manufacturing and direct sales supported by digital platforms like Online Express and JLG University. The company leverages its parent company Oshkosh Corporation's brand and resources, enhancing credibility. The website's content and linked domains indicate a well-integrated ecosystem with partner and service sites. The target customers are primarily commercial and industrial clients requiring access equipment solutions.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with enforced HTTPS, multiple security headers, and a cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR. However, it lacks publicly available security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure programs, which are important for transparency and trust in enterprise environments. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the content. The absence of direct company contact emails and phone numbers on the homepage may limit immediate support access but is mitigated by contact forms and social media channels.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page detailing security practices and compliance.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file.
  3. Provide explicit incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ emails.
  4. Add direct company contact emails and phone numbers for enhanced user trust and support.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web technologies including Next.js and React, with a headless Sitecore CMS backend. Hosting on Vercel provides fast content delivery and performance optimization. The site is mobile responsive with good accessibility features and SEO optimization. The use of Font Awesome icons and Vercel Speed Insights indicates attention to UI/UX and performance monitoring. No technical debt or outdated libraries were detected in the analyzed content. The infrastructure supports scalability and enterprise-grade digital experience.
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.
