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

PACCAR Parts operates as a global leader in the distribution and marketing of aftermarket parts for heavy and medium-duty trucks, trailers, buses, and engines. The company supports major brands such as DAF, Kenworth, and Peterbilt, providing comprehensive aftersales support worldwide. The website reflects a professional B2B business model focused on parts distribution and customer support for commercial vehicle dealers and operators. Technically, the website is built on WordPress and leverages modern JavaScript libraries including jQuery and Cookiebot for cookie consent management. Google Analytics is used for visitor tracking and performance insights. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented, though security headers and incident response information are not explicitly present. Privacy compliance is partial, with a cookie policy and consent mechanism but no visible privacy policy or terms of service in the provided content. The absence of WHOIS data is a notable anomaly, possibly due to privacy protection or data source limitations, but the website content and branding strongly indicate a legitimate enterprise presence. Overall, the site is functional, professional, and secure with room for improvement in transparency and contact accessibility.

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

5 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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 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
  3. DNS health

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

    • High

      Unregistered MX Record

      MX record points to unregistered domain: ms88731441.msv1.invalid.outlook.com

      What to do: Remove or fix MX record pointing to unregistered domain

      • RFC 5321 §5.1
      • NIS2 21(2)(i)
      • IR 2024/2690 12.4: Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 12.4: Asset inventory

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

PACCAR Parts holds a strong market position as a key aftermarket parts distributor for heavy-duty truck brands under the PACCAR Inc. umbrella. The business model centers on B2B sales and distribution, targeting dealers and fleet operators globally. The company benefits from a well-established partnership ecosystem including Kenworth, Peterbilt, and DAF. The website content and technology stack indicate a mature digital presence, though direct customer engagement channels such as contact emails or phone numbers are not evident in the analyzed content. The use of Cookiebot and Google Analytics suggests attention to marketing and compliance, but the lack of explicit privacy and security policies may limit trust for some users. The domain WHOIS data is missing, which is unusual for a large enterprise but may be explained by privacy or registrar factors. Strategic growth could focus on enhancing transparency, improving accessibility of contact and compliance information, and strengthening security disclosures.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security posture with mandatory HTTPS encryption and a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism that categorizes cookies by function and provider. CSRF protection cookies are present, indicating backend security awareness. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No security.txt or vulnerability disclosure information is published, limiting external reporting channels. Privacy compliance is partial, with cookie consent but no visible privacy policy or terms of service in the provided content. No direct contact information for incident response or security concerns is found. Overall, the site is secure for general use but would benefit from enhanced security headers, published security policies, and clear incident response contacts to improve trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement standard security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the website footer or main navigation to improve transparency and compliance.
  3. Add a security.txt file and clearly display incident response contact information to facilitate vulnerability reporting and improve security posture.
  4. Provide explicit company contact details including emails and phone numbers to enhance user trust and support accessibility.
  5. Conduct regular security audits and update third-party libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities and maintain compliance with evolving regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress with a custom theme and uses several JavaScript libraries such as jQuery 3.7.1, AnythingSlider, jwplayer, and swfobject. Cookiebot is integrated for cookie consent management. The site loads resources from multiple external domains including content delivery networks and analytics providers. Performance appears moderate with some legacy scripts (e.g., swfobject) still present, suggesting potential for modernization. Mobile optimization is basic but functional. SEO and accessibility features are present but could be improved for better user experience and compliance. No hosting provider information is explicitly detected. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a stable and professional website but could benefit from modernization and enhanced accessibility and SEO practices.
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.
