The website www.les-scic.coop represents the Confédération générale des Scop et des Scic (CGSCOP), a French cooperative confederation established in 2011. It serves as a central hub for promoting and supporting Sociétés Coopératives d’Intérêt Collectif (Scic), providing resources, documentation, and networking opportunities for entrepreneurs, associations, and public entities interested in cooperative business models. The site is well-structured, professionally designed, and offers comprehensive content relevant to its target audience. Technically, the site is built on Drupal 10, leveraging modern web technologies and analytics tools such as Matomo and Google Tag Manager, with a strong emphasis on privacy compliance through cookie consent management. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with good SEO practices implemented. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and no critical vulnerabilities detected, though DNSSEC is not enabled and some security headers could be improved. From a security perspective, the site shows maturity with no signs of exposed sensitive data or malicious content. Privacy policies and cookie management are clearly presented and GDPR compliant. Contact information is transparent, including phone, address, and a contact form. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies were found, which could be areas for future enhancement. Overall, the website is trustworthy, professionally maintained, and aligned with the cooperative movement's values. Strategic recommendations include enabling DNSSEC, enhancing security headers, and adding explicit terms of service and vulnerability disclosure information to further strengthen trust and compliance.

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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  2. 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';…

  3. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

  4. 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.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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

CGSCOP holds a key position in the French cooperative ecosystem, focusing on the Scic model which integrates multiple stakeholders including employees, public entities, and associations. Its business model is non-profit and service-oriented, providing education, advocacy, and networking rather than commercial products. The organization targets a diverse audience from entrepreneurs to public bodies, facilitating cooperative entrepreneurship at the territorial level. The website reflects a mature digital presence with integration into a broad network of related cooperative domains, indicating strong partnership ecosystems. Growth indicators include active content updates, events, and a member extranet. The cooperative nature and public sector involvement suggest stable revenue streams primarily from membership and public funding.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security posture with HTTPS enforced and no visible critical vulnerabilities. Use of a cookie consent manager (Tarteaucitron) and privacy-focused analytics (Matomo) indicates awareness of privacy and data protection requirements. However, the absence of DNSSEC and limited security headers are minor gaps. No explicit security or incident response policies are published, which could limit transparency in case of security events. The site avoids exposing sensitive data and uses asynchronous script loading to improve security and performance. Overall, the security maturity is solid but could be enhanced with formal policies and additional technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement additional HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, and X-Frame-Options.
  3. Publish explicit security and incident response policies including vulnerability disclosure guidelines.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and analytics tools to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Consider adding a terms of service page to clarify user rights and obligations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal 10, a modern and widely supported CMS, ensuring a solid foundation for content management and security. The use of Matomo for analytics reflects a privacy-conscious approach. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts and responsive design for mobile devices. SEO is well addressed with canonical links, meta tags, and structured data for search engines. Accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA roles are present, enhancing usability. The site uses multiple external domains for cooperative network resources and social media integration, which are well managed. Hosting provider details are not explicit but the domain uses standard name servers without DNSSEC. Overall, the technical infrastructure is robust with room for security 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.
