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

EPSA is a European specialist company focused on optimizing financial, operational, and environmental performance for its clients. The company positions itself as a leading actor in performance optimization across multiple sectors and countries, with a large workforce and extensive client base. The website reflects a professional consulting business model targeting corporate clients seeking expertise in finance, operations, and sustainability transformations. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern technologies such as Google Tag Manager and lazy loading images, providing good performance and mobile optimization. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms, though some security headers and incident response policies are not explicitly published. The absence of WHOIS registration data is a notable concern for domain legitimacy, but the website content and branding are consistent and trustworthy. Overall, EPSA presents a mature digital presence with room for improvement in transparency and security disclosures.

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

4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, LinkedIn, YouTube, Cloudflare

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

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

EPSA operates as a consulting firm specializing in performance optimization with a strong European footprint and international presence. The company has a large employee base and serves over 16,000 clients worldwide. Its business model revolves around advisory services in finance, operational excellence, and environmental transformation. The website indicates multiple language and regional subdomains, supporting a global strategy. EPSA maintains active social media channels and offers recruitment portals, signaling growth and engagement. The lack of WHOIS data may be due to privacy or registration issues, which should be clarified to strengthen trust. The company emphasizes certifications and ethical commitments, enhancing its market credibility.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and includes cookie consent mechanisms aligned with GDPR requirements, indicating a baseline of security and privacy compliance. However, no explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy or HSTS were detected, which could enhance protection against common web attacks. There is no visible incident response or vulnerability disclosure information, which is a gap in security transparency. No sensitive data exposure or vulnerable libraries were identified. The security score is good but could be improved by publishing security policies and implementing additional HTTP headers. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a corporate website but lacks advanced maturity features.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a formal incident response and vulnerability disclosure policy to improve transparency and readiness.
  2. Add security HTTP headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection.
  3. Publish Data Protection Officer contact information to comply fully with GDPR transparency requirements.
  4. Verify and update WHOIS registration data to improve domain legitimacy and trustworthiness.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks and improve user trust.

Notes

The website uses WordPress CMS with modern front-end technologies including SVG logos, lazy loading images, and Google Tag Manager for analytics. The site is mobile optimized and has good SEO metadata including Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data. Performance is moderate with room for optimization. No major technical debt or deprecated libraries were detected. Hosting provider details are not explicitly available. The site uses tarteaucitron.js for cookie consent management, indicating attention to privacy compliance. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable web presence.
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.
