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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, Google Ads

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  3. 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 Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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

Volkswagen Bosna i Hercegovina holds a strong market position as the official Volkswagen brand presence in Bosnia and Herzegovina, leveraging the global Volkswagen AG brand. The business model focuses on automotive sales, aftersales services, and customer engagement through digital channels. Revenue streams primarily derive from vehicle sales and associated services. The target customer segment includes private consumers and businesses seeking Volkswagen passenger vehicles. The company benefits from partnerships within the Porsche Holding Group ecosystem, which provides CMS and dealer network support. Growth indicators include active digital marketing, model launches, and localized content. The partnership ecosystem includes Volkswagen commercial vehicles and Porsche Holding Group services, enhancing operational capabilities and market reach.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security, and integration of cookie consent management via OneTrust. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the analyzed content. However, the absence of a publicly accessible security policy or incident response contact information represents a compliance gap. GDPR compliance is well addressed through privacy and cookie policies. The site demonstrates readiness for data protection but could improve transparency around security governance and incident handling. Overall, the security maturity is good with room for enhancements in policy disclosure and incident response communication.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security governance and controls.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Conduct regular audits of third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance website accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience.
  5. Develop and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy to encourage responsible reporting.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Next.js and React, indicating a modern and scalable front-end architecture. Integration with Google Tag Manager and OneTrust reflects advanced analytics and privacy management capabilities. The CMS appears to be custom-built and managed by Porsche Holding Group services, ensuring content localization and dealer network integration. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts and optimized images. Mobile optimization is good, supporting responsive design. SEO practices are implemented with canonical tags, meta descriptions, and Open Graph metadata. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. Technical risks are minimal, with no critical vulnerabilities detected in the analyzed content.
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.
