47/100

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

Upstream Mobility is a small Austrian company specializing in digital municipal mobility solutions, offering a cloud-based platform and white-label apps to integrate various mobility providers and services. Their business model focuses on B2B and B2G markets, targeting municipalities and public transport authorities to enable Mobility as a Service. The website is built on Squarespace, featuring professional design and good content relevance, but suffers from critical security issues due to lack of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS support. The security posture is weak, with no modern TLS protocols enabled and no advanced security headers beyond basic HSTS and X-Content-Type-Options. Privacy compliance is basic, with a cookie consent mechanism and a privacy policy page present, but no terms of service or incident response information. Contact is primarily via web forms, with no explicit company emails or phone numbers displayed. The domain registration is consistent with the business claims and hosted on Squarespace infrastructure. Strategic improvements in security and contact transparency are recommended to enhance trust and compliance.

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.

  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

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

    • 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

  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

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

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.
  • 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 positions itself as an innovative leader in municipal mobility platforms, leveraging partnerships with numerous public and private transport providers. Their offerings include digital mobility management, data analytics for public authorities, and on-demand mobility solutions. The partner ecosystem is strong, with many recognized mobility and transport companies linked. The business model is SaaS-based, focusing on enabling municipalities to modernize their transport services. Growth potential is indicated by ongoing innovation projects and a clear focus on future mobility trends. However, the lack of explicit contact details and security weaknesses may impact customer confidence.

Security posture

The website's security posture is currently poor due to the absence of a valid SSL certificate and lack of HTTPS, exposing users to potential data interception risks. No modern TLS protocols or strong cipher suites are enabled, and OCSP stapling and session resumption are missing, which affects both security and performance. Basic security headers like HSTS and X-Content-Type-Options are present, but more comprehensive headers and policies are absent. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is available, indicating limited preparedness for security incidents. The use of web forms without visible advanced security measures may pose risks. Immediate remediation of SSL/TLS issues is critical.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and properly configure a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Enable modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3) and strong cipher suites to secure communications.
  3. Implement OCSP stapling and session resumption to improve security and performance.
  4. Add comprehensive security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), Referrer-Policy, and X-Frame-Options.
  5. Publish clear incident response and vulnerability disclosure policies to enhance security transparency.
  6. Provide explicit company contact emails and phone numbers to improve trust and communication.
  7. Review and enhance privacy compliance documentation, including terms of service and data protection officer contact if applicable.
  8. Improve website performance and accessibility to enhance user experience and SEO.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Squarespace platform, utilizing standard Squarespace scripts and Typekit/Google Fonts for typography. The technical infrastructure is stable but shows signs of outdated security configuration, notably the lack of SSL/TLS. Performance metrics are missing or zero, indicating possible measurement gaps or slow loading times. The site is mobile optimized with good navigation clarity and professional design. SEO optimization is basic, with proper meta tags and Open Graph data present. The absence of analytics services suggests minimal user tracking. Technical debt is low due to the managed platform but security misconfigurations pose operational risks.
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.
