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

Datalake is an IT consulting company offering a range of services including development, infrastructure management, DevOps, testing, big data, and IT service management. The company targets businesses seeking expert consultants and dedicated teams to support and enhance their IT projects. The website reflects a medium-sized enterprise with a professional design and consistent branding, primarily serving the French market with additional presence in Tunisia and Morocco. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using modern frameworks such as Bootstrap and Elementor, ensuring good mobile responsiveness and moderate performance. The site employs Google reCAPTCHA v3 for form security but lacks advanced security headers and explicit security policies. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS but does not implement comprehensive security headers or disclose incident response procedures. No privacy or cookie policies are present, which impacts compliance with GDPR and related regulations. The presence of numerous external links to gambling and adult content sites raises concerns about content relevance and potential SEO or security risks. Overall, the website is functional and professional but requires improvements in privacy compliance, security policy transparency, and content curation to enhance trust and regulatory adherence.

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

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

  2. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

  3. 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

Datalake positions itself as a specialized IT consulting firm with expertise in multiple domains such as Big Data, DevOps, and infrastructure. The business model focuses on providing consulting, dedicated feature teams, and factory services to clients. The company appears to have a regional presence in France, Tunisia, and Morocco, indicating a medium-sized operation. The website content and structure suggest a focus on B2B clients seeking IT project support and leadership. The external links to various unrelated and potentially suspicious domains may indicate SEO tactics or content injection, which could affect brand reputation. No clear partnerships or subsidiaries are identified from the website content.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS, ensuring encrypted communication. It uses Google reCAPTCHA v3 to protect forms from automated abuse. However, there is a lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and others that enhance security posture. No explicit security or incident response policies are disclosed, and no security.txt or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are found. The absence of these elements suggests a moderate security maturity level. The presence of numerous external links to gambling and adult sites may pose indirect security or reputational risks. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided content.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with explicit consent mechanisms to improve GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance security posture.
  3. Establish and disclose a security policy and incident response plan, including contact channels for security issues.
  4. Review and clean external links to remove or verify suspicious or unrelated domains to improve trust and SEO.
  5. Regularly update all plugins, themes, and WordPress core to mitigate vulnerabilities and maintain security.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 5.3.18 with Elementor and Bootstrap 4.3.1 frameworks, indicating a modern and flexible technical stack. It uses Font Awesome for icons and jQuery for scripting. The site loads CSS and JS assets via autoptimize, suggesting some optimization efforts. Google reCAPTCHA v3 is integrated for form security. The site is mobile responsive and uses standard SEO meta tags and JSON-LD structured data for enhanced search engine visibility. Performance is moderate, with no explicit indicators of slow loading but no advanced performance optimizations detected. Accessibility features are basic, with some ARIA roles and semantic HTML present but no detailed accessibility enhancements.
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.
