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

Thermo King is a globally recognized leader in transport refrigeration and heating solutions, serving a broad range of transportation sectors including trailers, trucks, buses, rail cars, and shipboard containers. The company operates as a subsidiary of Trane Technologies and offers a comprehensive portfolio of products and services including telematics, auxiliary power units, parts, accessories, and certified pre-owned programs. The website reflects a mature enterprise with a strong market position and a clear commitment to sustainability and customer service. Technically, the website is built on Adobe Experience Manager, leveraging modern marketing and analytics tools such as Marketo, Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, and Hotjar. The site demonstrates good performance, mobile optimization, and accessibility, with a professional and consistent branding approach. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and use of reCAPTCHA, though some security headers could be improved. Privacy compliance is partial, with a comprehensive privacy policy but lacking explicit cookie consent mechanisms. The security evaluation reveals no critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data, but the absence of WHOIS data for the domain is unusual and warrants attention. Overall, the site is trustworthy and professionally maintained, supporting Thermo King's reputation as a leader in its industry. Strategic improvements in privacy compliance and security headers would further enhance the site's security and regulatory posture.

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

4 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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  3. 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

  • 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

Thermo King holds a strong market position as a global leader in transport refrigeration solutions, targeting transportation businesses requiring temperature-controlled logistics. Its business model integrates manufacturing, telematics, and service support, generating revenue through equipment sales, parts, and ongoing service contracts. The company benefits from its parent company Trane Technologies, leveraging a broad partnership ecosystem and extensive dealer network. Growth indicators include innovation in electric transport solutions and smart telematics. The website's content and external links reflect a mature enterprise with a focus on sustainability and customer experience.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, use of Google reCAPTCHA, and no visible exposure of sensitive data. However, the lack of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represents an area for improvement. No incident response or security policy information is publicly available, which could impact transparency and readiness perception. The absence of a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file limits external security engagement. Overall, the site is secure but could benefit from enhanced security best practices and clearer incident response communication.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  2. Add a visible cookie consent banner to comply with GDPR and other privacy regulations, improving user transparency and legal compliance.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to enhance trust and preparedness.
  4. Consider establishing a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting and improve security posture.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and marketing tools to minimize risk from external dependencies.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Adobe Experience Manager, a robust enterprise CMS, and integrates multiple marketing and analytics technologies including Marketo, Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, Hotjar, and Yext Answers. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization, accessibility, and SEO practices. Performance is moderate, with potential for improvement through optimization of third-party scripts and resource loading. The technical infrastructure supports a professional user experience and aligns with enterprise standards, though security header implementation and privacy mechanisms could be enhanced to reduce technical risk.
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.
