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

VicOne Inc. is a specialized cybersecurity company focused on providing future-ready vehicle protection reinforced with proven automotive threat intelligence. The company targets automotive manufacturers, Tier 1 suppliers, EVSE manufacturers, and other stakeholders in the connected car ecosystem. VicOne offers a broad portfolio of cybersecurity software and services including threat intelligence platforms, vehicle security operations centers, intrusion detection/prevention systems, vulnerability and SBOM management, and penetration testing services. The company holds multiple industry certifications and has strategic partnerships with major technology and automotive players, positioning it as a trusted leader in automotive cybersecurity. Technically, the website is hosted on Microsoft IIS with ASP.NET backend, leveraging AWS CloudFront CDN for delivery. The tech stack includes modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery, Owl Carousel, ScrollReveal, and HubSpot for analytics and marketing automation. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization and fast performance, with a comprehensive content strategy and clear navigation. However, the SSL configuration lacks modern TLS protocol support, and DNSSEC is not enabled, indicating areas for security enhancement. From a security posture perspective, VicOne implements strong HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and XSS protection. The SSL certificate is valid and issued by a trusted CA, but the absence of TLS 1.2 or higher protocols is a notable gap. The company provides comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with consent mechanisms, but lacks explicit incident response contact information and terms of service page. Overall, the security maturity is good with room for improvements in protocol support and DNS security. The overall risk assessment suggests VicOne is a well-positioned and trusted player in automotive cybersecurity with strong technical and security foundations. Strategic recommendations include enabling modern TLS protocols, implementing DNSSEC, publishing incident response contacts, and enhancing accessibility compliance to further strengthen trust and security 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.

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

VicOne operates in the automotive cybersecurity sector, serving OEMs, Tier 1 suppliers, EVSE manufacturers, and charge point operators. The company leverages Trend Micro's cybersecurity expertise and maintains strategic partnerships with industry leaders such as AWS, BlackBerry, and DEKRA. Its business model is B2B, focusing on software and service offerings that address the entire vehicle lifecycle and supply chain security. VicOne's competitive advantages include its comprehensive product suite, industry certifications, and strong partner ecosystem. The company actively publishes research, reports, and blogs to establish thought leadership. Growth indicators include multiple awards and expanding partnerships. The company emphasizes compliance with automotive cybersecurity standards and regulations, positioning itself as a trusted security partner in the connected car ecosystem.

Security posture

VicOne demonstrates a mature security posture with implementation of key HTTP security headers, valid SSL certificates, and comprehensive privacy and cookie policies. The use of CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and XSS protection headers indicates adherence to security best practices. However, the lack of enabled TLS 1.2 or higher protocols and absence of DNSSEC are notable vulnerabilities that could impact secure communications and DNS integrity. The website does not expose direct incident response contacts or security.txt files, which could hinder rapid response to security incidents. Data protection practices appear robust with GDPR-compliant privacy notices and cookie consent mechanisms. Overall, the security culture is strong but could benefit from enhanced protocol support and explicit incident response information.

Recommendations

  1. Enable TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3 protocols to ensure secure encrypted communications.
  2. Implement DNSSEC to protect against DNS spoofing and improve domain security.
  3. Publish explicit incident response contact information and consider adding a security.txt file.
  4. Enhance website accessibility compliance to improve user experience for all users.
  5. Maintain and update privacy and cookie policies regularly to ensure ongoing GDPR and global compliance.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a Microsoft IIS 10.0 server running ASP.NET 4.0.30319, hosted behind AWS CloudFront CDN, ensuring global content delivery and performance optimization. The front-end uses jQuery, Owl Carousel, ScrollReveal, and Luxy.js for interactive and animated content. HubSpot is integrated for marketing automation and analytics, alongside Microsoft Clarity and Hotjar for user behavior tracking. The site is well-optimized for mobile devices and loads quickly, though no TLS 1.2 or higher protocols are enabled, which is a technical risk. DNS records show multiple A records and use AWS Route 53 nameservers without DNSSEC. The SSL certificate is valid with a 2048-bit key but uses an unknown algorithm, suggesting a need for review. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern and performant but requires updates to cryptographic protocols and DNS security to mitigate 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.
