It targets a broad audience including families, wine enthusiasts, and visitors to the Alsace region. The event is notable for its long history (77 editions) and diverse offerings including over 1500 wines, 350 exhibitors, and international artists. Technically, the site is built on Joomla CMS, uses modern web technologies, and implements GDPR-compliant privacy and cookie policies with consent mechanisms. The site is well-designed, mobile-optimized, and provides a good user experience with clear navigation and rich multimedia content. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS enforced and no visible sensitive data exposure, though security headers are not evident and no explicit security or incident response policies are published.

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 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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

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

      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

The Foire aux Vins d’Alsace operates as a medium-sized event organizer in the hospitality and retail sectors, focusing on wine, gastronomy, and entertainment. Its business model revolves around event promotion, exhibitor participation, and ticket sales, supported by partnerships for ticketing and digital presence. The event enjoys strong regional recognition and cultural significance, leveraging social media and professional branding to engage its audience. Growth indicators include a robust festival lineup and extensive exhibitor participation. Strategic partnerships with ticketing platforms and web development agencies enhance operational capabilities. The lack of direct company contact details online suggests a focus on digital engagement rather than direct sales or support via phone or email.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and cookie consent implemented, indicating GDPR awareness. However, the absence of visible security headers such as Content Security Policy, X-Frame-Options, or HSTS reduces the overall security posture. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are provided, which limits transparency in security management. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The site uses third-party scripts like Google Tag Manager and Axeptio for analytics and consent management, which should be regularly audited. Overall, the security posture is adequate for an event website but could be improved by implementing additional HTTP security headers and publishing security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate risks from external libraries.
  4. Consider providing direct company contact emails and phone numbers for improved business credibility and user support.
  5. Investigate and resolve the missing WHOIS data issue to strengthen domain legitimacy and trustworthiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Joomla CMS, leveraging modern web standards including HTML5 video and responsive design. It uses Google Tag Manager for analytics and Axeptio for cookie consent management, indicating compliance with privacy regulations. The site loads multimedia content efficiently but performance is moderate, possibly due to large video assets. Mobile optimization is good with a responsive menu and layout. Accessibility is basic but present, with some ARIA attributes and keyboard navigation support. SEO is well addressed with meta tags, alternate language links, and structured navigation. Hosting provider details are not evident from the content. Technical risks include lack of security headers and potential dependency on third-party scripts. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and user-friendly event website.
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.
