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

The website www.mairie-montigny-la-resle-89.fr serves as the official online presence for the town hall of Montigny la Resle, a small commune in the Bourgogne region of France. It provides residents and visitors with essential information about municipal services, local news, administrative procedures, health advisories, and community events. The site is well-structured and targets local citizens and stakeholders, offering a comprehensive resource for civic engagement and public service access. Technically, the website employs standard web technologies including HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, and jQuery, with Google Fonts for typography. It is mobile-optimized and accessible, featuring responsive design and navigation aids. However, the technology stack is somewhat dated, notably with an older jQuery version, and lacks advanced security headers. Performance is moderate, with no evident tracking or analytics scripts, indicating a privacy-conscious approach. From a security standpoint, the site uses HTTPS, which is mandatory, but does not implement additional security headers that could enhance protection against common web threats. There is no visible privacy or cookie consent mechanism, which is a compliance gap under GDPR. The WHOIS data is unavailable, which slightly reduces trust but is not uncommon for .fr domains. No vulnerabilities or sensitive data exposures were detected. Overall, the website is a trustworthy and functional municipal portal with good content quality and user experience. Strategic improvements in security headers, privacy compliance, and updating libraries would enhance its security posture and regulatory adherence.

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

10 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • 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

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 represents a local government entity serving a small population of approximately 588 inhabitants. Its market position is that of an essential public service provider with no commercial intent. The business model is informational and service-oriented, focusing on community engagement and administrative facilitation. Revenue streams are not applicable. The target customers are local residents, businesses, and visitors. The site links to regional and national government portals, indicating integration within a broader public service ecosystem. Growth indicators are limited due to the nature of the entity. Partnerships include regional government and service providers like Imago Numeris for web development. The site reflects a stable, community-focused operation with consistent branding and content.

Security posture

The security maturity level is moderate. HTTPS is enforced, but the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security limits defense-in-depth. The use of an outdated jQuery version poses a potential risk, though no active vulnerabilities were detected. There is no published incident response or security policy, and no dedicated security contact channels. Privacy compliance is incomplete, lacking cookie consent and detailed privacy disclosures. The site does not employ tracking or analytics, reducing privacy risks. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a low-risk municipal informational site but requires enhancements to meet modern standards and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to improve protection against common web attacks.
  2. Upgrade jQuery and any other JavaScript libraries to their latest stable versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  3. Add a cookie consent banner and detailed cookie policy to comply with GDPR and enhance user privacy transparency.
  4. Publish a clear privacy policy with GDPR compliance statements and data protection officer contact information if applicable.
  5. Establish and publish an incident response policy and provide dedicated security contact channels to improve security governance and user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using standard web technologies with a focus on accessibility and responsive design. It uses Google Fonts for typography and jQuery 1.10.2 for JavaScript functionality. The site is hosted on an HTTPS-enabled server, ensuring encrypted communication. Performance is moderate with no heavy external dependencies or tracking scripts. The HTML structure is valid and SEO-friendly with appropriate meta tags. However, the technology stack is somewhat dated, and there is no evidence of a modern CMS or framework. The site lacks advanced security configurations and privacy compliance mechanisms. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the website's purpose but would benefit from modernization and enhanced security controls.
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.
