0–100, higher is better. How it is calculated

Office de Tourisme Béziers Méditerranée operates as the official regional tourism office for the Béziers Méditerranée area in France, providing comprehensive tourism information, event listings, and booking services. The website is well-branded and professionally maintained, targeting tourists and visitors seeking cultural, leisure, and outdoor activities in the region. The business model focuses on promoting local tourism and facilitating visitor engagement through digital channels. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with a modern tech stack including jQuery, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and a cookie consent platform (Axeptio). It features responsive design, good SEO practices, and accessibility considerations. The site integrates interactive maps and booking widgets enhancing user experience. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented, though the absence of explicit security headers is noted. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. Privacy compliance is addressed with visible privacy and cookie policies, and GDPR consent mechanisms. Overall, the site presents a low-risk profile with strong business credibility and digital maturity. The main concern is the lack of WHOIS data, which should be investigated to confirm domain registration legitimacy. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy, and verifying domain registration details.

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

6 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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 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';…
  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

    • High

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 tourism office holds a strong regional market position as an official entity promoting Béziers Méditerranée. Its competitive advantage lies in comprehensive digital presence, multilingual support, and integration of booking and event management tools. Revenue streams likely include commissions from bookings and partnerships with local businesses. The target customers are leisure tourists, families, and cultural visitors. Growth indicators include active content updates and social media engagement. Partnerships with regional quality certifications and local government entities strengthen its ecosystem. The business operates with a medium-sized footprint focused on hospitality and tourism services.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms in place, ensuring encrypted communications and user privacy compliance. However, the absence of security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is available, indicating room for improvement in security transparency and readiness. No exposed credentials or vulnerable libraries were detected. Overall, the site is secure for typical tourism website operations but could enhance protections against advanced threats.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to strengthen browser security.
  2. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  3. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration information to ensure transparency and trust.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and plugins for vulnerabilities and update them promptly.
  5. Enhance incident response readiness by defining and publishing security contact channels.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform using a custom theme and several plugins including WP eTourisme for booking and event management. It leverages modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Swiper.js for UI components and integrates Google Analytics and Tag Manager for analytics. The site uses OpenStreetMap via Leaflet for mapping features. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and accessibility features. The site uses Google Fonts and asynchronous script loading to improve load times. There is no explicit hosting provider information detected. Technical debt appears low with a modern and maintainable stack, though security header implementation is lacking.
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.
