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

3 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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 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';…
  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 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
  3. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Domain Expires Soon

      Domain expires in 7 days

      What to do: Renew domain registration before expiration

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

Mercury Marine operates in the transportation sector, specializing in marine propulsion systems for recreational boating. The company targets both consumers and business clients worldwide, offering manufacturing, sales, maintenance, and spare parts services. The website supports multiple languages and regions, indicating a broad international footprint. The business model focuses on product manufacturing and distribution through a network of dealers and service centers. The digital ecosystem includes advanced marketing and analytics tools, supporting data-driven customer engagement and brand management. Despite the lack of visible direct contact information on the homepage, trust signals such as privacy and cookie policies are present, enhancing credibility.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security posture with mandatory HTTPS encryption and a cookie consent banner compliant with GDPR. However, the lack of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options suggests room for improvement in defense-in-depth strategies. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The absence of publicly disclosed incident response or security policy pages limits visibility into the organization's security governance. The WHOIS data absence raises a minor concern regarding domain registration transparency but does not directly impact site security. Overall, the site is secure but could enhance its security headers and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce explicit security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen browser security.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and user trust.
  3. Ensure all forms and user inputs have CSRF protection and robust validation to prevent injection attacks.
  4. Investigate and clarify domain WHOIS registration details to improve domain legitimacy and trust.
  5. Enhance contact information visibility on the website to facilitate customer and security communications.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Adobe Experience Manager, a robust enterprise CMS platform, indicating a high level of digital maturity. Integration with Google Tag Manager, Adobe Launch, and Facebook Pixel enables comprehensive marketing and analytics capabilities. The site uses modern web standards including HTML5 and CSS3, and is optimized for mobile devices with responsive design. Performance is moderate, likely influenced by the complexity of the CMS and third-party scripts. Accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA attributes are present, supporting inclusive user experience. The technical stack is modern and well-maintained, though opportunities exist to optimize performance and security headers further.
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.
