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

AART ELECTRONICS is a French company founded in 2004 specializing in the centralization and outsourcing of procurement for the Ministry of Defense. With over 30 years of leadership experience, it has established a recognized presence in the French defense sector, providing logistics chain management and technical R&D solutions. The company operates from Neuilly Sur Seine and Croissy Sur Seine, emphasizing quality, competitiveness, and reliability. The website reflects a professional business with certifications such as ISO 9001, EN 9120, and ISO 14001, signaling commitment to quality and environmental standards. Technically, the site is built on WordPress using the Avada theme and includes modern tools like Google Analytics and reCAPTCHA, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. Security posture is good with HTTPS and CAPTCHA protections, but lacks published privacy and terms policies, which are critical for compliance and trust. The absence of WHOIS registration data raises concerns about domain legitimacy, warranting further verification. Overall, the site is functional and professional but could improve transparency and compliance documentation.

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

8 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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';…

  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 Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

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 targets government and military clients in France, focusing on procurement centralization and logistics support. Its business model revolves around outsourcing and supply chain management for defense equipment including armored vehicles, aircraft, naval vessels, and electronic warfare systems. The firm leverages certifications to build trust and maintain competitive advantage. The website's multilingual support suggests an intent to reach broader European audiences. However, the lack of direct contact details and privacy documentation may limit customer engagement and regulatory compliance. The missing WHOIS data is a notable anomaly that could impact business credibility. No evident partnerships or subsidiaries are identified from the domain data. The company appears to be a small-sized entity with a niche focus in government defense procurement.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses Google reCAPTCHA to protect forms, which are positive security measures. However, no advanced security headers (e.g., CSP, HSTS) are detected, and there is no published security or incident response policy. The cookie consent mechanism is implemented, supporting GDPR compliance to some extent. The absence of privacy and terms of service pages is a compliance gap. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the analysis. The missing WHOIS data could be a risk factor for domain ownership verification and trust. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be enhanced by publishing security policies, improving header configurations, and clarifying incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Add terms of service and security policy pages to clarify user and business obligations.
  3. Implement security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HSTS, and X-Frame-Options.
  4. Provide clear and verified contact information including security and incident response contacts.
  5. Investigate and resolve the missing WHOIS registration data to enhance domain legitimacy and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform using the Avada theme and Slider Revolution plugin, indicating a standard but robust technical infrastructure. It uses jQuery and Google services such as Analytics and reCAPTCHA for tracking and security. Performance is moderate with responsive design and basic accessibility features. The site lacks advanced SEO and accessibility optimizations but includes proper meta tags and multilingual support. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. There is room for modernization by improving accessibility, SEO, and security header implementations. No critical technical debt or vulnerabilities were detected.
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.
