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

    • 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: Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, Google APIs

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

  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

The business operates in the transportation sector, focusing on commercial vehicles and related financial services. It leverages partnerships with D'Ieteren and Volkswagen Group, enhancing its market reach and credibility. The business model includes direct vehicle sales, leasing, renting, and fleet management solutions, targeting professional and business clients. The presence of electric and hybrid vehicle offerings indicates alignment with sustainability trends. The company maintains a strong digital presence with integrated social media channels and comprehensive legal and privacy documentation. Growth indicators include active promotions, configurators, and personalized offers. The partnership ecosystem includes related domains such as dieteren.be and myway.be, supporting vehicle sales and services.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, use of security best practices such as cookie consent, and no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. However, the absence of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms suggests areas for improvement. The site uses third-party scripts for tracking and analytics, which appear to be managed responsibly with privacy compliance. Security headers are implied but not explicitly confirmed in the HTML. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from enhanced transparency and documented security governance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publicly disclose a formal security policy and incident response plan.
  2. Add a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  3. Verify and explicitly configure security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher compliance standards.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and update dependencies to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern technology stack including React and Adobe Experience Manager CMS, with integration of Adobe Helix RUM for performance monitoring and lazy loading for images. The site uses custom Volkswagen fonts and Scene7 for media asset management. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and SEO metadata. The site architecture supports multi-language content with clear navigation and structured menus. Hosting details are not explicitly identified but likely managed by Volkswagen or D'Ieteren infrastructure. Technical risks are minimal but continuous monitoring of third-party scripts and performance optimization is recommended to maintain user experience and security.
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.
