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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube

      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.

Business context

Business profile

FAIR occupies a key niche in the French social finance ecosystem, offering resources and certification to investors, entrepreneurs, and citizens interested in ethical finance. Its business model is non-profit advocacy and certification, supported by partnerships and a collective membership. The website's frequent news updates and event promotions demonstrate active engagement and market presence. The organization leverages digital tools effectively to reach and educate its audience, maintaining a strong brand identity and trust signals such as the Finansol label and social media channels.

Security posture

The website uses HTTPS and implements cookie consent, reflecting awareness of privacy and security best practices. However, explicit security headers like CSP and HSTS are not detected, and no public security or incident response policies are found. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were identified in the content. The absence of a security.txt or vulnerability disclosure program suggests room for maturity improvement in security governance. Overall, the security posture is solid but could benefit from formalized policies and enhanced header configurations.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy page to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to demonstrate transparency and preparedness.
  4. Consider implementing a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and analytics tools to minimize potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal 10, a modern and secure CMS platform, and uses popular analytics and tracking tools. The presence of asynchronous script loading and cookie consent indicates attention to performance and privacy. The site is mobile optimized and accessible, with clear navigation and structured content. No major technical debt or outdated technologies were detected. Hosting provider details are not explicit, but the site uses custom domains for analytics, suggesting dedicated infrastructure. Performance is moderate, likely due to rich media content and multiple scripts, but overall user experience is smooth and professional.
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.
