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

Vehicle Tracking Ltd operates the website vtlive.co.uk, providing GPS vehicle tracking solutions primarily targeting businesses managing vehicle fleets in the UK. The company offers subscription-based services including live tracking, alerts, reporting, and fleet safety features. The website is professionally designed with consistent branding and clear navigation, supporting a good user experience. The technical infrastructure is based on WordPress with several jQuery versions and third-party widgets for feedback and tracking. While HTTPS is enabled and basic security practices are observed, the presence of multiple outdated jQuery libraries and lack of explicit security headers present moderate security risks. Privacy compliance is weak due to the absence of privacy and cookie policies or consent mechanisms. Contact information is clearly provided, including a UK toll-free phone number and social media presence on Facebook. The domain is well-established since 2009, consistent with the business history, and shows no suspicious WHOIS patterns.

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

9 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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
    • High

      SSL Certificate Expires Soon

      SSL certificate expires in 29 days

      What to do: Renew SSL certificate before expiration

      • NIS2 21(2)(h)
      • IR 2024/2690 9.2(c): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 9.2(c): Cryptography
      • NIST SC-17: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-17: Public Key Infrastructure Certificates

  2. 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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';…

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 positions itself as a specialized provider of GPS vehicle tracking services with a flexible monthly rental model, appealing to small and medium-sized fleet operators. Its competitive advantages include rapid installation, full warranty, training and support, and a simple-to-use system. The business leverages digital marketing tools such as UserVoice and Lead Forensics for customer engagement and tracking. The presence of BSI certification adds credibility. The company maintains a focused partnership ecosystem, including app store presence for mobile platforms and a design partner. Growth potential is supported by clear service offerings and a UK-centric market focus.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security posture with HTTPS enabled and no visible sensitive data exposure. However, the use of multiple outdated jQuery versions increases the risk of client-side vulnerabilities. The absence of security headers such as Content Security Policy or X-Frame-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. No public security or incident response policies are found, limiting transparency. The lack of cookie consent mechanisms and privacy policies indicates non-compliance with GDPR best practices. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but requires improvements to reduce risk and enhance compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Update all jQuery libraries to the latest secure versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  2. Implement and configure security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with GDPR compliance and implement a cookie consent mechanism.
  4. Develop and publicly share security and incident response policies to improve transparency and trust.
  5. Conduct regular security audits and penetration testing to identify and remediate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 7.0 with multiple jQuery versions loaded asynchronously, which may cause conflicts and security issues. It uses common plugins such as Contact Form 7 and Yoast SEO for forms and SEO optimization respectively. The site loads external scripts for user feedback (UserVoice) and visitor tracking (Lead Forensics). Mobile optimization is basic with some responsive design elements. Performance is moderate due to multiple script loads and legacy libraries. Accessibility features are minimal but present. SEO is enhanced by Yoast plugin and proper meta tags including Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data. Hosting is via Team Blue Internet Services UK Limited, consistent with the registrar information.
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.
