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

MOTIONDATA VECTOR Gruppe is a well-established Austrian software and IT solutions provider specializing in Dealer Management Systems and related automotive industry services. With over 40 years of experience and a strong presence in the D-A-CH region and other European markets, the company offers a comprehensive portfolio including cloud-based DMS, sales management tools, web portfolios, mobile apps, and IT infrastructure services. The website reflects a mature digital presence with professional design, multilingual support, and clear navigation. However, a critical security gap exists due to the absence of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS support, which undermines user trust and data security. Privacy and cookie policies are comprehensive and GDPR compliant, with active consent mechanisms. Social media integration and brand certifications further enhance credibility.

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

6 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

  • 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 holds a leading market position in the automotive software sector, serving over 14,000 users across more than 40 brands. Its business model focuses on B2B software sales and IT services tailored to automotive dealerships and workshops. The extensive modular product suite and cloud offerings indicate a scalable and customer-centric approach. Partnerships with numerous automotive brands and importer recommendations strengthen its competitive advantage. The company targets automotive businesses seeking digital transformation and operational efficiency. Growth indicators include continuous product development, certifications, and a broad geographic footprint.

Security posture

The current security posture is weak due to the lack of a valid SSL certificate and disabled TLS protocols, exposing the site to potential interception and undermining secure communications. While HTTP security headers such as HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and Content Security Policy are properly configured, the absence of HTTPS is a critical vulnerability. No evidence of incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies was found. Privacy compliance is strong with cookie consent and GDPR-aligned policies. Immediate remediation of SSL/TLS issues is essential to protect user data and maintain trust.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy 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 configure strong cipher suites.
  3. Implement OCSP stapling and session resumption to improve SSL performance and security.
  4. Establish and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy and incident response contact information.
  5. Continue maintaining comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear user consent mechanisms.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 6.8.1 using the Enfold theme and Avia framework, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries and SEO plugins like Yoast. The site is hosted on infrastructure associated with A1.net, with DNS records indicating stable hosting. Performance metrics were not provided, but the site includes responsive design and mobile optimization. The technical stack includes Google Analytics and Tag Manager for tracking, LayerSlider for UI effects, and multiple CSS/JS minification and caching plugins. The site is well-structured with semantic HTML and JSON-LD structured data for SEO. However, the lack of HTTPS is a major technical deficiency that must be addressed urgently.
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.
