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

L'Etape du Tour de France is an amateur cycling event website operated by Amaury Sport Organisation, offering non-professional riders the experience of the Tour de France. The website is well designed with clear navigation, targeting cycling enthusiasts globally. It provides event information, registration, training plans, and additional services such as bike rental and mechanical assistance. Technically, the site uses modern JavaScript libraries, Google Tag Manager, and Facebook SDK for analytics and marketing, with good mobile optimization and cookie consent compliance. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and basic security best practices, though some HTTP security headers are missing and no explicit security or incident response policies are publicly available. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain is a concern for domain legitimacy, but the website content and branding strongly indicate a legitimate and professional event. Overall, the site scores well on content quality and technical implementation but could improve transparency on security and domain registration details.

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

5 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. 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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

  3. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Unregistered MX Record

      MX record points to unregistered domain:

      What to do: Remove or fix MX record pointing to unregistered domain

      • RFC 5321 §5.1
      • NIS2 21(2)(i)
      • IR 2024/2690 12.4: Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 12.4: Asset inventory

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 website positions itself as a leading organizer of amateur cycling events linked to the prestigious Tour de France, targeting a niche market of cycling enthusiasts worldwide. Its business model revolves around event registration, providing training resources, and offering ancillary services to participants. The presence of strong social media channels and partnerships with known platforms like Timeto.com and A.S.O. enhances its market reach and credibility. The site reflects a mature digital presence with integrated marketing and advertising tools, supporting revenue through event participation and related services. Growth potential is supported by global participant engagement and a well-established brand in the cycling community.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security posture with enforced HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms aligned with GDPR. However, the lack of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates room for improvement in transparency and readiness. The use of third-party scripts necessitates ongoing monitoring for vulnerabilities. Missing security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options should be implemented to enhance protection against common web attacks. The absence of WHOIS data raises questions about domain registration transparency, which is a critical trust factor for users and partners.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive security policy and incident response plan on the website.
  2. Add and enforce HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration information to improve domain legitimacy and trust.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies for vulnerabilities and update accordingly.
  5. Enhance contact information availability, including official company emails and phone numbers for support and security reporting.

  7. No security policy or incident response information publicly available.
  8. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt found.
Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern JavaScript-based front-end with slick sliders for interactive content and asynchronous loading of analytics and marketing scripts. It integrates Google Tag Manager and Facebook SDK for tracking and advertising, alongside OneTrust for cookie consent management. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and preloading of critical assets. Performance is moderate, with some lazy loading failures noted in images. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. Accessibility features are basic but present. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Technical risks include reliance on multiple third-party scripts and missing security headers.
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.
