NIS2 and GDPR posture

Not assessed

Both readouts depend on the site's pages, which could not be loaded in this scan.

Priority findings

3 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

  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

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.
  • GDPR outside view: 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

The business is positioned as a leader in truck manufacturing and transport solutions in Africa, leveraging a century-old brand with a large workforce and distributor network. Revenue streams include vehicle sales, service contracts, fleet management solutions, and online parts sales. The target customers are transporters, fleet managers, and drivers. The company maintains a strong partnership ecosystem with dedicated portals for media, bodybuilders, and independent operators. The website reflects a mature digital presence with multilingual support and comprehensive content tailored to regional needs.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and secure Drupal forms. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure program indicates room for improvement in transparency and readiness. Security headers beyond basic ones are not evident, suggesting enhancements could be made to harden the site further. GDPR compliance is well addressed with clear privacy and cookie policies and consent mechanisms.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Provide explicit incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ emails.
  3. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file.
  4. Enhance HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks.

It integrates HubSpot and Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing automation. The site is mobile responsive with good 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.
