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

Mercedes-Benz México, S. de R.L. de C.V. operates the official Mercedes-Benz passenger cars website for Mexico, offering luxury vehicles including sedans, SUVs, and coupes. The company is a subsidiary of Mercedes-Benz Group AG and targets Mexican consumers interested in premium automotive products. The website provides comprehensive information on vehicle models, financing options, after-sales services, and customer support, all presented in Spanish with a professional and consistent brand image. Technically, the website leverages modern web technologies such as Vue.js 3, Adobe Experience Manager CMS, and integrates advanced analytics tools including Datadog RUM and Google Tag Manager. The site is optimized for mobile devices, includes SEO best practices, and maintains good accessibility standards. Security is robust with HTTPS enforced, multiple security headers, and privacy compliance aligned with Mexican data protection laws.

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

4 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.

    • Critical

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  2. 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

    • 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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Facebook, Twitter, YouTube

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

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

Mercedes-Benz México holds a strong market position as a premium automotive brand in Mexico, offering a wide range of passenger vehicles and related financial services. The business model focuses on direct vehicle sales, financing plans, and after-sales maintenance, supported by a robust digital platform. The company benefits from its parent Mercedes-Benz Group AG's global brand recognition and resources. The website's detailed product information, legal disclosures, and customer service contacts indicate a transparent and customer-centric approach. Partnerships with payment processors like Mercedes Pay and integration with social media platforms enhance customer reach and engagement. The presence of extensive financing options and promotions suggests active market competitiveness and growth orientation.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a high level of security maturity with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and secure session management via CIAM. Use of modern analytics and monitoring tools like Datadog RUM supports proactive performance and security monitoring. Privacy policies comply with Mexican data protection laws, and cookie consent is actively managed. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were identified in the HTML content. However, the absence of a public security incident response contact or vulnerability disclosure policy limits transparency in security incident handling. Regular audits of third-party scripts and adding a security.txt file are recommended to enhance security posture further.

Recommendations

  1. Publish explicit security incident response contact information on the website.
  2. Implement and publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosures.
  3. Conduct regular security audits of third-party scripts and dependencies.
  4. Enhance transparency on data retention policies and user rights in privacy documentation.
  5. Maintain continuous monitoring and update of security headers and SSL configurations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern technology stack featuring Vue.js 3 for frontend interactivity and Adobe Experience Manager as the CMS platform. It uses ES modules and web components for modular and efficient code delivery. Performance is moderate with preloading of images and asynchronous script loading. The site is mobile optimized and accessible, with proper SEO meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD) for enhanced search engine visibility. Analytics and monitoring are implemented via Datadog RUM and Google Tag Manager, providing detailed user interaction and performance data. The technical infrastructure supports a secure and scalable user experience, though hosting provider details are not explicitly identified.
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.
