69/100

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

Kuehne+Nagel is a leading global logistics provider specializing in freight forwarding and supply chain management with a strong market position in air, sea, and road logistics. The company operates an extensive global network with over 82,000 employees and serves 400,000 customers worldwide. Their website reflects a mature digital presence with comprehensive service offerings, investor relations, and sustainability initiatives. Technically, the site is built on the Liferay CMS platform, utilizing modern JavaScript libraries and Google Tag Manager for analytics. However, the security posture is weakened by the absence of a valid SSL/TLS certificate and disabled HTTPS protocols, which poses significant risks. Privacy compliance is partially met with a comprehensive privacy policy but lacks a visible cookie consent mechanism. Overall, the site is professional and trustworthy but requires urgent security improvements to protect user data and enhance trust.

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

1 finding 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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

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.
  • GDPR outside view: 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

Kuehne+Nagel's business model focuses on integrated logistics solutions including transportation, warehousing, customs clearance, and digital supply chain services. Their market leadership in air and sea freight is supported by a broad portfolio of services tailored to various industries such as aerospace, automotive, healthcare, and consumer goods. The company targets global enterprises requiring end-to-end supply chain orchestration. Their digital ecosystem includes customer portals and marketing storytelling platforms, indicating a strong emphasis on customer engagement and brand positioning. Investor relations and sustainability disclosures demonstrate transparency and corporate governance maturity.

Security posture

The website exhibits basic security best practices such as security headers and cookie flags but critically lacks a valid SSL certificate and proper HTTPS enforcement, exposing users to potential interception and data tampering. The absence of TLS protocols and OCSP stapling further weakens the security posture. No explicit incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies are found, though a confidential reporting line is available. The site should prioritize SSL deployment and enhance security configurations to meet enterprise standards and regulatory compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Deploy and maintain a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across all site pages.
  2. Enable modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 or higher) and disable all insecure protocols.
  3. Implement HSTS with includeSubDomains and preload flags to enforce secure connections.
  4. Add a visible cookie consent banner to comply with GDPR and ePrivacy regulations.
  5. Establish and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy and security contact information.
  6. Enable OCSP stapling and session resumption to improve security and performance.
  7. Review and tighten Content Security Policy to reduce reliance on 'unsafe-inline' and 'unsafe-eval'.
Technical notes

Notes

The site is powered by Liferay CMS with extensive use of Alloy UI and jQuery, indicating a mature but somewhat legacy technology stack. Google Tag Manager is used for analytics and marketing tracking. The site supports multiple languages and regions with a complex navigation structure. Performance data is missing, suggesting potential issues with load times or monitoring. Mobile optimization is good, but accessibility features appear basic. The hosting environment uses managed DNS but lacks DNSSEC, which could be improved for DNS security. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a large enterprise but requires modernization in security and performance monitoring.
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.
