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

      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

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 España is a key subsidiary of Mercedes-Benz Group AG, operating in the transportation and finance sectors. The business model includes vehicle sales, digital services, after-sales support, and financial services such as leasing and insurance. The company maintains a robust partnership ecosystem including subsidiaries and authorized dealers. The website reflects a mature digital presence with extensive content, clear contact information, and trust signals such as official registration details and privacy policies. The company targets a broad audience in Spain with a focus on luxury and performance vehicles.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a strong security posture with HTTPS enforced, modern security headers, and active monitoring via Datadog RUM. Privacy compliance is well addressed with detailed GDPR-aligned policies and a designated Data Protection Officer contact. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. However, the absence of a public vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file suggests room for improvement in incident response transparency. Overall, the site follows best practices for secure web operations and user data protection.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated vulnerability disclosure policy and security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  2. Enhance transparency around incident response procedures and contact channels for security issues.
  3. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize security risks.
  4. Maintain and update privacy and cookie consent mechanisms to align with evolving regulations.
  5. Consider publishing certifications or compliance attestations to strengthen trust signals.

Technical notes

Notes

The website leverages a modern technology stack including Vue.js 3, ES module shims, and web components, hosted on a Mercedes-Benz managed platform likely powered by Adobe Experience Manager CMS. Performance is optimized with preconnects, DNS prefetching, and asynchronous script loading. The site is mobile responsive and accessible, with good SEO practices including meta tags and structured data. The use of advanced analytics and user interaction tracking tools like Datadog and Usabilla indicates a mature digital infrastructure. No significant technical debt or outdated technologies were observed.
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.
