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

Ach@t Solutions is a leading French software publisher specializing in public procurement and transport management solutions. The group serves a large client base including public sector entities and private partners, supported by six expert subsidiaries. Their digital offerings include innovative software and a dematerialization portal (AW Solutions) aimed at optimizing buyer-supplier relationships in the public sector. The website is professionally designed, mobile-optimized, and rich in relevant content, reflecting a mature digital presence. Technically, the site is built on Drupal 8 with modern libraries and frameworks, ensuring good performance and accessibility. Security posture is moderate with cookie consent implemented but lacks explicit security headers and published security policies. WHOIS data is missing, which raises concerns about domain registration transparency, though the overall business credibility remains high due to detailed company information and certifications. Recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing security and incident response policies, and verifying domain registration details to improve trust.

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

5 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 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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google APIs

      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

The company holds a strong market position in the French public procurement software sector, leveraging a diversified portfolio of subsidiaries that cover complementary domains such as transport and healthcare. Their business model focuses on software licensing and digital services for public and private sector clients. Revenue indicators and client counts suggest a large enterprise scale. The group actively promotes its certifications and social commitments, enhancing its competitive advantage. Partnerships and subsidiary domains are well integrated, supporting a cohesive ecosystem. Growth is indicated by a focus on innovation, including AI and data management. The company targets public administrations, healthcare institutions, and private suppliers, positioning itself as a key player in government digital transformation.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a baseline security posture with HTTPS usage and cookie consent mechanisms. However, the absence of security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security robustness. No explicit security or incident response policies are published, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files are found. External scripts from trusted sources are used, but continuous monitoring is recommended. The missing WHOIS data introduces uncertainty about domain legitimacy, which is a critical trust factor. Overall, the security maturity is moderate, with room for improvement in transparency and technical controls to align with best practices and compliance requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response information on the website to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration information to ensure transparency and trustworthiness.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks and comply with GDPR.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal 8 CMS, leveraging Bootstrap 3.4.1 for responsive design and jQuery for interactivity. FontAwesome icons and Slick slider enhance UI/UX. The site loads multiple external scripts including social media SDKs and analytics tools. Performance is moderate, with good mobile optimization and accessibility features. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. The technical stack is modern but could benefit from updated Bootstrap versions and enhanced security configurations. No hosting provider details were identified from the content. The site uses cookie consent scripts to comply with privacy regulations. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable web presence.
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.
