Risk levelHigh

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

Promax Logistics operates as a freight forwarding and logistics service provider focusing on Germany, the UK, and Europe. Their services include full and part load freight forwarding, express courier services, transhipment, handling, local and national distribution, export packing, and stock control. The company targets businesses requiring reliable logistics solutions across these regions. The website content is basic but functional, providing essential service descriptions and contact information. Technically, the website uses outdated technologies such as jQuery 1.4.2 and Cufon font replacement, lacks modern SEO and accessibility features, and shows no evidence of HTTPS enforcement or security headers. There are no analytics or tracking scripts detected, and no social media presence is linked. The site is accessible without WAF or blocking mechanisms. From a security perspective, the absence of HTTPS enforcement, outdated libraries, and missing security headers represent vulnerabilities that could expose the business to risks. The lack of privacy and cookie policies indicates poor privacy compliance. The WHOIS data is missing or indicates the domain is unregistered, which raises concerns about domain legitimacy and trustworthiness. Overall, the website scores moderately low on content quality, technical implementation, security posture, privacy compliance, and business credibility. Strategic improvements in security, privacy policies, technology updates, and domain registration verification are recommended to enhance trust and operational security.

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

8 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  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. 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

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

Promax Logistics positions itself as a small-sized logistics and freight forwarding company with a focus on European markets, particularly Germany and the UK. Their business model relies on partnerships with like-minded companies to provide reliable and quality freight services. The company appears to have a niche in express courier and freight forwarding services with daily operations. The lack of detailed business registration information and missing WHOIS data limits the ability to fully assess their market presence and growth indicators. No evident certifications or trust badges are displayed, which could impact competitive advantage. The company’s contact information and service descriptions suggest a traditional logistics operation targeting business clients needing freight solutions across Europe.

Security posture

The current security posture of the website is weak. The site lacks HTTPS enforcement visible in the HTML content, uses an outdated jQuery version vulnerable to known exploits, and does not implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options. No privacy or cookie policies are present, indicating non-compliance with GDPR and other privacy regulations. There is no evidence of incident response contacts or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms. The missing WHOIS registration data further undermines trust and raises questions about domain legitimacy. These factors collectively indicate a low maturity level in security practices, exposing the business to potential risks including data interception, injection attacks, and reputational damage.

Recommendations

  1. Upgrade all outdated JavaScript libraries, especially jQuery, to supported secure versions.
  2. Implement HTTPS with valid SSL/TLS certificates and enforce secure connections site-wide.
  3. Add essential security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to comply with GDPR and inform users.
  5. Verify and update domain registration details to ensure WHOIS data is accurate and publicly available.
  6. Introduce incident response contact information and vulnerability disclosure policies.
  7. Improve website accessibility and SEO by adopting modern web standards and responsive design.
  8. Add analytics and tracking with privacy-compliant configurations to monitor user engagement.
  9. Enhance branding consistency and content quality to improve user trust and professionalism.
  10. Conduct regular security audits and penetration testing to identify and remediate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using legacy technologies including jQuery 1.4.2 and Cufon font replacement, which are outdated and pose security risks. The HTML structure is basic with minimal meta tags and no modern SEO or accessibility features. There is no evidence of a CMS or modern frameworks. Performance is moderate but likely impacted by outdated scripts. The site lacks mobile optimization and accessibility compliance. Hosting provider and platform details are not discernible from the content. No analytics or marketing tools are integrated. The technical debt is significant, and modernization is recommended to improve security, performance, and user experience.
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.
