Van Mossel Automotive Group · Transportation · Luxembourg

Medium risk. 3 critical or high findings in Security headers and SSL/TLS.

Security score

69/100

Risk levelMedium

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

Van Mossel Automotive Group is a major automotive distributor operating in Luxembourg and several European countries, representing 43 automotive brands. The company offers vehicle sales, leasing, and dealership services, targeting customers in the transportation sector. The website is professionally designed using modern technologies such as Nuxt.js and Tailwind CSS, with integrations for Google Tag Manager and Google Maps API, indicating a mature digital infrastructure. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and cookie consent mechanisms in place, but lacks comprehensive security headers and explicit privacy and terms policies. The absence of WHOIS data limits domain trust verification, though the website's professional presentation supports legitimacy. Strategic improvements in privacy transparency, security header implementation, and contact information publication would 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

3 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 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';…

  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 SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

Van Mossel holds a strong market position as a large automotive group with a broad portfolio of brands and subsidiaries across multiple European countries. Its business model focuses on vehicle distribution and leasing, serving a diverse customer base. The presence of multiple localized domains indicates a well-established partnership and subsidiary network. The company leverages digital marketing and tracking tools to optimize user engagement and business intelligence. However, the lack of explicit privacy and security policies may pose compliance risks in regulated markets.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a baseline security posture with HTTPS and cookie consent, but lacks several recommended security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options. No explicit vulnerability disclosure or incident response contacts are provided, which could hinder timely security communication. The absence of WHOIS data reduces confidence in domain registration legitimacy. Overall, the security maturity is moderate with room for improvement in transparency and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to enhance compliance and user trust.
  2. Add and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Provide explicit contact information for security incidents, including a dedicated security or abuse email address.
  4. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Improve accessibility features to meet compliance standards and enhance user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern JavaScript framework (Nuxt.js) with Tailwind CSS for styling, ensuring responsive and performant design. Integration with Google Tag Manager and Google Maps API supports advanced analytics and location services. The site uses cookie consent management via Cookiebot and Harvest Consent Monitor, indicating GDPR awareness. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization. However, no CMS or hosting provider details are evident. Technical debt appears low, but security header implementation and privacy documentation require attention to reduce 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.
