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

7 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 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';…
  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

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

Joomla Services positions itself as a niche provider of Joomla CMS-related services, focusing on maintenance, tutorials, migration, optimization, and debugging. The business model is service-oriented, targeting Joomla website owners who prefer expert assistance over self-maintenance. The company is small and relatively new, founded in 2021, with a clear focus on the French market but offering English content as well. The lack of direct contact emails or phone numbers suggests a controlled communication channel via forms, possibly to manage inquiries efficiently. The absence of advertising and analytics tools indicates a low reliance on marketing automation or tracking, possibly reflecting a boutique service approach. The company is registered under NOBEGESA INVESTMENTS in France, which aligns with the website's country and business focus, supporting credibility. No partnerships or subsidiaries were identified.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is properly implemented, and domain status flags prevent unauthorized domain transfer or deletion, which are positive trust signals. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, which is a missed opportunity to secure DNS queries. No security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or Strict-Transport-Security were detected, which could improve protection against common web attacks. There is no visible security policy or incident response contact information, which limits transparency in handling security incidents. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were identified in the provided content. The absence of analytics and advertising scripts reduces the attack surface related to third-party integrations. Overall, the site is secure for its business scope but could benefit from enhanced security controls and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to protect DNS integrity and prevent spoofing attacks.
  2. Implement essential security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Consider adding direct verified contact emails and phone numbers to improve business credibility and user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Joomla CMS version 5.2.5, using the Yootheme template and UIkit framework for UI components. The site is hosted with OVH as registrar and uses o2switch.net for DNS hosting. The technical implementation is modern and follows good practices with responsive design and SEO-friendly meta tags. Performance is moderate, with no explicit indicators of slow loading but no advanced optimization detected. Accessibility is basic but present, with skip links and ARIA attributes. No analytics or advertising scripts were found, indicating minimal external dependencies. The site lacks DNSSEC and security headers, which are technical gaps. Overall, the infrastructure is solid for a small service provider but has room for modernization and enhanced security.
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.
