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

Maelis.info is the official website for the MAELIS application, a service provided by SPL-XDEMAT aimed at facilitating local community engagement through a smartphone app. The app offers practical information, alerts, incident reporting, and access to local public services and associations. The website is professionally designed with clear navigation and mobile optimization, targeting French local government citizens and community members. The business model focuses on providing a digital platform for local government communication and citizen participation. Technically, the website uses standard web technologies including HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, and libraries such as jQuery and AOS for animations. It supports mobile platforms with links to iOS and Android app stores. While the site performs moderately well and is mobile-optimized, there is room for improvement in accessibility and security headers. No CMS or hosting provider details are evident. From a security perspective, the site lacks visible security headers and cookie consent mechanisms, which are important for GDPR compliance and user trust. The WHOIS data is privacy protected, which is common but reduces transparency. No forms or sensitive data collection points are present on the main page, reducing immediate risk exposure. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be enhanced with standard best practices. The overall risk assessment is low, with no signs of malicious content or suspicious behavior. Strategic recommendations include implementing security headers, adding cookie consent, improving privacy disclosures, and providing clear contact information for security incidents to enhance 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

5 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. 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.

    • Critical

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  3. 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 Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • 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

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

Maelis.info operates in the government sector, providing a niche service app for local French communities under the parent company SPL-XDEMAT. The company leverages digital tools to enhance citizen engagement and streamline communication between local authorities and residents. The business model is service-oriented, focusing on information dissemination and community participation. The presence on major app stores indicates a strategy to reach mobile users effectively. The partnership ecosystem is limited but includes the parent company SPL-XDEMAT. Growth indicators are not explicit but the app's functionality suggests ongoing development and user engagement. Competitive advantages include official backing and integration with local government services.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with HTTPS likely enabled (inferred from app store links and modern web standards), but lacks explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options. No incident response or security policy information is provided, and no contact channels for security issues are visible. The absence of cookie consent mechanisms is a compliance gap under GDPR. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The WHOIS privacy protection is justified but reduces transparency. Overall, the security maturity is moderate with room for improvement in compliance and best practices.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Add a visible cookie consent banner and detailed cookie policy to comply with GDPR and improve user trust.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and provide clear contact information for incident reporting and vulnerability disclosures.
  4. Enhance privacy policy details on the main site or app to clarify data handling and user rights.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to ensure no vulnerable libraries are used.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern but simple technology stack with HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and AOS for animations. It is optimized for mobile devices and integrates with iOS and Android platforms via app store links. The site lacks a detected CMS and hosting provider information. Performance is moderate with no evident broken elements. Accessibility features are basic but could be improved. SEO is supported by meta tags and structured navigation. Technical risks include missing security headers and lack of cookie consent mechanisms, which could impact compliance and user trust.
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.
