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

Adaptaville.fr is a French-language informational platform initiated by the Agence Parisienne du Climat, focused on providing ecological solutions to adapt to climate change in the Île-de-France region. The website serves local authorities, policymakers, and ecological actors by listing proven adaptation solutions, offering news, resources, and a map of solutions. The platform operates as a non-profit, supported by partnerships with public entities such as Métropole du Grand Paris and Ville de Paris. Technically, the site uses modern JavaScript libraries like jQuery and Lucide icons, and employs Plausible Analytics for privacy-conscious user tracking. The hosting is provided by Infomaniak Network SA, a reputable registrar and hosting provider. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced, but lacks visible security headers and cookie consent mechanisms. Contact is primarily via web forms, with no direct emails or phone numbers publicly listed. Overall, the site is professional, trustworthy, and well-branded, though improvements in privacy compliance and security headers are recommended.

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. 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 Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

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

  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 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 platform occupies a niche position in the climate adaptation sector within the Île-de-France region, leveraging partnerships with governmental and environmental organizations to enhance credibility and reach. Its business model is informational and non-commercial, focusing on dissemination and facilitation of ecological solutions. The target audience includes local governments, environmental professionals, and the general public interested in climate resilience. The presence of multiple recognized partners and a clear mission supports growth potential and trust. The website's content and structure support its role as a knowledge hub, though direct contact information is limited, possibly reflecting its non-commercial nature.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and no visible exposure of sensitive data. However, the absence of security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces its defense-in-depth posture. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are published, which could hinder timely security issue reporting. The use of privacy-respecting analytics is a positive indicator. Overall, while no critical vulnerabilities are evident, the site would benefit from enhanced security policies and headers to improve resilience and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement standard security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options) to strengthen security posture.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner to comply with GDPR and enhance user privacy transparency.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve trust and readiness.
  4. Consider adding direct contact emails or phone numbers for better user support and transparency.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve inclusivity and compliance with standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a custom or proprietary CMS/framework with jQuery 3.3.1 and Lucide icons for UI elements. It integrates Plausible Analytics for lightweight, privacy-focused user tracking. Hosting is managed by Infomaniak Network SA, a reputable provider. The site is mobile responsive with good SEO metadata including Open Graph tags. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous script loading improving page load times. However, the lack of modern frameworks or CMS platforms may indicate technical debt or limited scalability. Accessibility is basic, and no ARIA or advanced accessibility features were detected. Overall, the technical implementation supports the site's informational goals but could be modernized for improved performance 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.
