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

4 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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  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"

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 website positions Alpine as a premium sports car brand within the Italian market, leveraging its heritage and association with Renault Group. Its business model focuses on direct engagement with customers through digital channels, offering detailed product information, configurators, and financing options. The presence of motorsport news and eSport content indicates a strategy to engage enthusiasts and build brand loyalty. The site integrates with Renault's CDN and analytics infrastructure, suggesting a centralized digital ecosystem. While the site lacks direct contact emails or phone numbers publicly listed, it provides contact forms for customer interaction. The absence of explicit security and incident response information is a minor gap in transparency but does not detract significantly from overall credibility.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with strong SSL configuration and implements key security headers such as Content Security Policy and Strict-Transport-Security, enhancing protection against common web threats. Cookie consent is managed via OneTrust, ensuring compliance with privacy regulations. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the analyzed content. However, the site does not publish a dedicated security policy or vulnerability disclosure program, nor does it provide direct security contact channels, which could improve incident response readiness and user trust. Overall, the security posture is robust for a commercial website but could benefit from enhanced transparency and formalized security documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and user data protection measures.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Provide direct security contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  4. Enhance website accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all users.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using React and modern JavaScript, served via Renault Group's CDN infrastructure. It uses optimized image formats like WebP and implements preloading for performance. The site includes comprehensive meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD) for SEO benefits. Cookie consent is managed by OneTrust, integrated asynchronously to avoid blocking page rendering. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and good navigation clarity. No common CMS was detected, indicating a custom or proprietary platform. Performance is moderate, with opportunities to improve load times further. The technical implementation is solid, but adding accessibility enhancements and formal security documentation would strengthen the overall technical maturity.
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.
