75/100

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

Kawasaki Motors Corp., U.S.A. operates a professional and comprehensive website focused on powersports vehicles including motorcycles, ATVs, Side x Sides, electric balance bikes, and personal watercraft. The company is positioned as a leading distributor in the U.S. market, targeting consumers and enthusiasts of powersports products. The website demonstrates a mature digital presence with modern design elements, responsive layout, and clear navigation, supporting a positive user experience. Technically, the site employs a mix of jQuery versions, Bootstrap framework, and Google Fonts, with analytics and tracking scripts integrated for user behavior insights. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced and multiple security headers present, although explicit security policies and incident response details are not published. Privacy compliance is well addressed with visible privacy and cookie policies and consent mechanisms. The absence of WHOIS data reduces transparency but does not detract from the overall legitimacy and professionalism of the site. Strategic recommendations include publishing security policies, adding vulnerability disclosure information, and enhancing security contact channels to further strengthen trust and compliance.

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

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  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 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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

Kawasaki Motors Corp., U.S.A. holds a strong market position in the transportation sector, specifically in powersports vehicles. The business model centers on manufacturing and distributing a wide range of vehicles and related products. The company targets a broad consumer base in the U.S., including recreational riders and enthusiasts. The website content and branding are consistent and professional, supporting brand recognition and trust. The company leverages digital marketing tools and analytics to optimize user engagement. While the WHOIS data is missing, the overall digital footprint and external social media presence reinforce Kawasaki's established reputation. No suspicious domains or partners were identified, indicating a clean and focused business ecosystem.

Security posture

The website exhibits a solid security posture with HTTPS enabled and multiple security headers such as Content Security Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, and X-Frame-Options implemented. Cookie consent mechanisms comply with GDPR requirements, enhancing privacy protection. However, the site lacks publicly available security policies, incident response plans, and vulnerability disclosure programs, which are important for transparency and user trust. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. The use of multiple jQuery versions could pose a maintenance risk but no direct vulnerabilities were identified. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be improved by publishing formal security documentation and providing dedicated security contact information.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response information page to improve transparency.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Consolidate jQuery versions to reduce technical debt and potential security risks.
  4. Enhance contact information with dedicated security and abuse email addresses.
  5. Regularly review and update privacy and cookie policies to maintain compliance with evolving regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack including Bootstrap for responsive design, multiple versions of jQuery for scripting, FontAwesome for icons, and Google Fonts for typography. Analytics are implemented via Google Analytics and a proprietary FuseMetricsEngine, with video engagement tracking scripts present. The site is mobile optimized and accessible, with proper meta tags and SEO practices. Performance is moderate, likely due to multiple jQuery versions and external script dependencies. Hosting provider details are not explicitly found. The site uses a cookie consent banner powered by a third-party service, indicating attention to privacy compliance. Technical risks include legacy script versions and lack of CMS identification, which may complicate maintenance and security patching. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and user-friendly experience but could benefit from modernization and simplification.
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.
