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.
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"
This scan found 16 issues across 6 checks. Monitoring re-runs those checks daily, emails you when something material changes and records each fix, so you can show progress.

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.

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.

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Business context
Business profile
Red Bull Powertrains operates within the energy and transportation sectors, focusing on high-performance power unit engineering for Formula One. Their business model leverages strategic partnerships with automotive giants like Honda and Ford, enhancing their technical capabilities, especially in EV technologies. The company targets motorsports enthusiasts, F1 teams, and technology professionals. Their market position is strong, evidenced by recent championship wins and ongoing development for future regulations. The website reflects a consistent brand image and high-quality content, supporting their reputation and market presence.
Security posture
The website's security posture is solid with a valid SSL certificate and implementation of key security headers such as X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-XSS-Protection. However, the absence of HSTS, DNSSEC, and CAA records indicates areas for enhancement to mitigate risks like protocol downgrade attacks and DNS spoofing. No known vulnerabilities were detected, and there is no public vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file, which could improve transparency and incident response. Privacy policies are comprehensive and GDPR compliant, but the lack of a cookie consent mechanism may pose compliance risks. Overall, the security maturity is moderate with clear opportunities for improvement.
Recommendations
Enable HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) with includeSubDomains and preload to enforce HTTPS usage.
Implement DNSSEC to protect against DNS spoofing and cache poisoning attacks.
Add CAA DNS records to restrict certificate issuance to authorized CAs.
Introduce a clear cookie consent mechanism to comply with privacy regulations.
Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to enhance security transparency and facilitate responsible reporting.
Technical notes
Notes
The website utilizes StencilJS as its primary framework, with assets served via Cloudinary and Akamai CDN, ensuring fast content delivery and good performance. The SSL certificate is valid but only supports older TLS versions, lacking TLS 1.2 or 1.3, which is a technical limitation. The site is well-optimized for mobile devices and accessibility, with good SEO practices evident in metadata and structured data. No forms were detected, indicating limited direct data collection on the main page. The technical infrastructure is modern and robust but could benefit from updated security protocols and enhanced DNS configurations.
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.
