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.

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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

Air France operates in the transportation sector as a major airline with a global footprint. Its business model centers on direct flight ticket sales and ancillary travel services. The company benefits from strong brand recognition and is part of the Air France-KLM parent group, with subsidiaries such as Transavia and Hop!. Revenue streams include passenger ticket sales, loyalty programs, and partnerships. The website targets a broad audience including leisure and business travelers, offering multilingual support and localized content. The partnership ecosystem includes payment processors and marketing affiliates. Growth indicators are supported by digital maturity and comprehensive online booking capabilities. The company maintains a professional online presence with consistent branding and trust signals such as certifications and secure infrastructure.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and multiple security headers implemented, including Content Security Policy and Strict-Transport-Security. No vulnerable or outdated libraries were detected in the analyzed scripts. The presence of a cookie consent banner and privacy policy indicates compliance with data protection regulations. However, no public incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies were found, which could be improved to enhance security transparency. The absence of exposed sensitive data and secure form handling practices further strengthen the security stance. Overall, the site is secure for users, but could benefit from publishing formal security policies and contact channels for incident reporting.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a public incident response policy to improve transparency and readiness.
  2. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Conduct regular security audits to ensure no vulnerable libraries or dependencies are introduced.
  4. Enhance visibility of data protection officer contact and privacy compliance information.
  5. Maintain and monitor tracking and marketing scripts to ensure privacy compliance and minimize user tracking.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Angular framework with Material Design components, providing a modern and responsive user interface. It uses JSON-LD structured data for SEO and rich snippets. External resources are loaded from static content delivery domains and marketing/tracking services like R42Tag. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization and accessibility features. Performance is moderate, with potential for improvement in resource loading optimization. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting provider details were not found. The technical stack supports scalability and maintainability but should be regularly reviewed for security and performance enhancements.
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.
