Alpine Buses · Transportation · France
High risk. 9 critical or high findings in Network security, Security headers and 2 other checks.
Alpine Buses operates a private transfer service specializing in airport and resort transfers in the Alpine region, servicing major airports such as Geneva, Zurich, Munich, Lyon, and Grenoble. The company targets travelers seeking reliable and comfortable transportation to ski resorts and other Alpine destinations. Their business model is primarily online booking through a WordPress-based website integrated with WooCommerce and Stripe for payments. The company positions itself as a trusted and experienced provider with a large fleet and official partnerships, including with Geneva Airport and ski equipment provider Skiset. Technically, the website is built on a modern WordPress platform with common plugins and libraries such as jQuery and Select2. Hosting is provided by Bluehost, and the domain is registered via GoDaddy. The site is mobile-optimized with good SEO and accessibility basics, though some improvements could be made in accessibility and cookie consent compliance. Performance is moderate, with no major technical issues detected. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and has domain status protections to prevent unauthorized changes. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, and security headers are not explicitly detected, which are areas for improvement. There is no visible security policy or incident response contact information, which could be enhanced to improve trust and compliance. Privacy compliance is partially met with a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service, but lacks a cookie consent mechanism. Overall, Alpine Buses presents a professional and trustworthy online presence with a solid business model and technical foundation. Strategic recommendations include enabling DNSSEC, implementing security headers, adding cookie consent for GDPR compliance, and publishing security and incident response policies to further strengthen security posture and customer trust.
Scanned
NIS2 Art. 21(2)
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.

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.
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
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.
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.

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Automated reading of the public site. Ratings are indicative.
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.
