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

Cellule Architecture de la CFWB operates as a government-affiliated entity supporting public sector clients in Wallonie-Bruxelles with architectural quality assurance, public procurement advice, and cultural promotion. The website serves as an information hub for architectural markets, art integration, cultural editions, archives, and international collaborations. The organization is positioned as a trusted regional government partner with a clear mission and target audience. Technically, the website is built on Drupal 7 with legacy JavaScript libraries such as jQuery 1.12.4 and uses Leaflet.js for mapping features. Hosting is provided by OVH SAS, a reputable provider. The site is mobile-optimized and has good SEO and accessibility basics but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security headers. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and domain protections in place, but lacks DNSSEC and modern security headers. The use of outdated JavaScript libraries presents potential vulnerabilities. Privacy compliance is partial, with a privacy policy present but no cookie consent mechanism detected. Contact information is clear and trustworthy, reinforcing business credibility. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and serves its governmental and cultural mission well, but should address technical and privacy improvements to enhance security and compliance.

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

8 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 Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • 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

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 organization is a small, government-affiliated entity focused on architecture and cultural promotion in the Wallonie-Bruxelles region. Its market position is strong within its niche, supported by official government backing. The business model revolves around advisory services, public procurement support, cultural dissemination, and archival research. Revenue streams are likely government-funded. The target customers are public sector bodies, cultural institutions, and architecture professionals. The partnership ecosystem includes regional government bodies and cultural organizations. Growth indicators include active news updates and international program participation. Strategic observations suggest a stable operation with opportunities for digital modernization and enhanced privacy compliance.

Security posture

The current security maturity is moderate. HTTPS is properly implemented, and domain registration protections are in place. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security reduces defense-in-depth. The use of an outdated jQuery version is a notable vulnerability that could expose the site to known exploits. No explicit incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies are found, indicating room for improvement in security governance. Privacy compliance is partial, lacking cookie consent mechanisms. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a government-affiliated informational site but requires updates to meet modern standards and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement modern security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Upgrade jQuery and other JavaScript libraries to current secure versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  4. Add a cookie consent banner and mechanism to comply fully with GDPR and ePrivacy regulations.
  5. Develop and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy and incident response contact information to improve security transparency and readiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website runs on Drupal 7, a mature but aging CMS platform, with legacy JavaScript libraries such as jQuery 1.12.4. It uses Leaflet.js for interactive maps and Colorbox for UI elements. Hosting is provided by OVH SAS, a reputable European provider. The site is mobile-optimized and includes SEO best practices such as meta tags and Open Graph data. Performance is moderate, with no major blocking issues detected. Accessibility features are basic but present. The site would benefit from modernization to Drupal 9/10 or another current CMS version and updating JavaScript dependencies to improve security and performance. The absence of DNSSEC and security headers represents technical debt and security risk.
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.
