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

Transped Europe GmbH is a medium-sized Austrian transportation and logistics company specializing in European haulage and intermodal freight transportation since 1983. The company positions itself as a specialist in European road haulage, targeting logistics customers and transport partners across Europe. The website reflects a professional business with clear navigation and relevant content focused on their core services. Technically, the site uses a custom ASP.NET backend with common frontend libraries such as jQuery and Bootstrap, but lacks modern security implementations such as HTTPS and security headers, which significantly impacts its security posture. The absence of a valid SSL certificate and missing security headers expose the site to potential risks and reduce trustworthiness. Privacy compliance is basic, with a privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism present, but no explicit data protection officer or incident response information is found. Overall, the website is functional and informative but requires urgent security improvements to protect user data and enhance trust.

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

7 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

  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.

    • Critical

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  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
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

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

The company operates in the transportation sector with a focus on European haulage and intermodal freight, leveraging decades of experience since 1983. Its business model centers on providing specialized logistics services to customers and hauliers, supported by a parent company, Transped Holding, and a subsidiary, STS Smart Transport Solutions. The website content and structure indicate a stable market position with consistent branding and trust indicators such as certificates and legal notices. The company targets a European audience, offering services that require reliability and flexibility. The partnership ecosystem includes related domains like sts.at, suggesting integrated service offerings. Growth indicators are implied by the comprehensive job and customer sections, although no direct financial data is available.

Security posture

The security posture of the website is weak due to the lack of HTTPS support and absence of critical security headers. While no known SSL vulnerabilities or outdated protocols are detected, the missing SSL certificate is a critical issue that undermines data confidentiality and integrity. The site does not provide any visible security or incident response policies, nor does it disclose vulnerability or data breach handling procedures. The cookie consent mechanism is implemented, indicating some awareness of privacy regulations, but GDPR compliance details are minimal. The lack of a data protection officer contact and security policy reduces the site's compliance maturity. Immediate remediation is recommended to install SSL, enable HSTS, and implement security headers to improve the security posture and user trust.

Recommendations

  1. Install and maintain a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Implement HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  3. Enable HSTS with includeSubDomains and preload flags to enforce secure connections.
  4. Publish a clear security policy and incident response plan accessible on the website.
  5. Add explicit contact information for data protection officer or privacy inquiries to enhance GDPR compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a custom ASP.NET framework with frontend technologies including jQuery, Bootstrap, and FontAwesome. It uses AJAX for VAT number validation and multi-select UI components. The hosting environment is not fully identified but lacks DNSSEC and CAA records, which could improve DNS security. Performance metrics are missing or zero, indicating a lack of monitoring or reporting. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive design elements and viewport meta tags. SEO is supported by canonical links, meta descriptions, and Open Graph tags. However, the absence of HTTPS and security headers represents a significant technical risk. The site would benefit from performance optimization and enhanced accessibility features.
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.
