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

9 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 business targets local small and medium enterprises and artisans, leveraging a service-based model focused on digital presence and marketing collateral. The company appears to have a stable market position with a domain age consistent with its founding year. The use of social media (Facebook) supports community engagement. Revenue streams likely derive from project-based web design, print services, and consulting engagements. The lack of extensive analytics or marketing tools suggests a focus on organic and direct client acquisition. The company maintains a clear brand identity and consistent messaging tailored to its regional audience.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses Google reCAPTCHA v3 to protect its contact form from spam and abuse. Cookie consent is implemented with granular user controls, supporting GDPR compliance. However, no explicit security headers were detected, and there is no published security policy or incident response contact information. The absence of a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure policy limits transparency for security researchers. No known vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small agency website but could be improved with additional headers, policies, and incident response readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability reporting and improve security transparency.
  4. Provide incident response contact information or a dedicated security contact email.
  5. Regularly audit and update WordPress plugins and themes to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern WordPress CMS with Elementor page builder and Yoast SEO plugin, ensuring good SEO and content management capabilities. Google Fonts and Google reCAPTCHA v3 are integrated for typography and spam protection respectively. WP Rocket is used for lazy loading images, improving performance. Hosting is provided by Infomaniak Network SA, a reputable French hosting provider. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and uses structured data (JSON-LD) for SEO enhancement. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in caching and asset optimization. Accessibility is basic, with some ARIA roles and skip links present but no advanced accessibility features detected.
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.
