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 Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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

ASTR operates in the transportation sector as an essential entity providing purchasing power and services to transport companies. Its business model leverages collective bargaining to offer competitive pricing and services usually reserved for large enterprises. The company maintains a strong partnership network with industry leaders in fuel, insurance, telephony, and logistics software. The presence of a dedicated chairman message and detailed service listings indicate a customer-focused approach. The website's content and structure support a high level of professionalism and market credibility, positioning ASTR as a key player in the French road transport industry.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with enforced HTTPS and a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR requirements. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options suggests potential enhancements to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The site lacks a published security policy or incident response contact, which could improve transparency and readiness. Overall, the security posture is solid but could benefit from implementing additional best practices and formal security documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and configure security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and compliance commitments.
  3. Create and maintain a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party plugins and scripts to minimize vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance incident response readiness by providing clear security contact channels.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is powered by WordPress CMS, utilizing PHP and JavaScript with libraries such as jQuery and Leaflet for mapping features. Image optimization is handled via EWWW Image Optimizer with WebP support, improving performance. SEO is supported by Yoast SEO plugin, and the site includes structured data in JSON-LD format for enhanced search engine understanding. Hosting is managed through GANDI, a reputable provider. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and accessibility features. The site architecture is clear and user-friendly, supporting a positive user experience. Opportunities exist to improve security headers and further optimize loading speed.
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.
