53/100

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

Inferential is a French company specializing in healthcare-related data management, biostatistics, and methodological expertise. Founded in 2010, it serves over 60 clients across 12 countries with a strong portfolio of projects and deliverables. The company targets healthcare and research organizations requiring advanced statistical and data services. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with clear service offerings and contact information. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern technologies such as Tailwind CSS, Vue.js, and Axios. It is mobile optimized and uses Google Analytics for user tracking. However, some security best practices like security headers are not evident, and privacy and cookie policies are missing, which impacts compliance and trust. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS enforced and secure form handling, but the absence of WHOIS data and domain registration details raises concerns about domain legitimacy. No WAF or blocking mechanisms were detected, allowing full content access. Overall, the website is professional and functional but would benefit from improved transparency in privacy compliance and enhanced security headers. Verification of domain registration is recommended to strengthen trust.

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.

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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

Inferential holds a solid position in the healthcare biostatistics and data management market, serving a medium-sized client base internationally. Its competitive advantage lies in specialized expertise and a comprehensive service offering tailored to clinical research. The business model is service-oriented, focusing on delivering high-quality statistical and data solutions. Growth indicators include a significant number of projects and international reach. The company maintains a professional online presence with active LinkedIn engagement but lacks visible certifications or formal security policies. Strategic partnerships or subsidiaries are not evident from the website content.

Security posture

The security maturity level is moderate to good. HTTPS is properly implemented, and forms use nonce fields to prevent CSRF attacks. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security reduces defense-in-depth. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The lack of published security policies or incident response contacts indicates room for improvement in security governance and transparency. GDPR compliance is not clearly demonstrated due to missing privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the security posture supports business operations but should be enhanced to meet higher compliance and trust standards.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement essential security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options) to strengthen security posture.
  3. Verify and publish domain registration details to improve legitimacy and trustworthiness.
  4. Establish and communicate a security policy and incident response contact to enhance transparency and preparedness.
  5. Conduct regular security audits of third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack centered on WordPress CMS with Tailwind CSS for styling and Vue.js for interactive components. It leverages Axios for asynchronous requests and integrates Google Analytics for tracking. The site is mobile responsive and well-structured with proper meta tags for SEO. Performance is moderate, with video content on the homepage potentially impacting load times. Accessibility features are basic but present. There is no indication of hosting provider or CDN from the HTML content. Technical debt appears low, but improvements in security headers and privacy compliance are recommended to reduce risks.
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.
