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

Maxi-Rires is an international humor festival website primarily targeting a general audience interested in comedy events. The site is built on WordPress using the Divi theme and includes WooCommerce, suggesting some e-commerce capabilities, likely for ticket sales or merchandise. The technical infrastructure is standard for small to medium event organizations, with moderate performance and good mobile optimization. However, the site lacks critical privacy and cookie policies, and no contact information or security policies are evident, which impacts its trustworthiness and compliance posture. The Google Analytics plugin is present but not configured, indicating limited user tracking at this time. Security headers are absent, and no incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which suggests a low security maturity level. Overall, the website is functional and professionally designed but requires significant improvements in privacy, security, and compliance to enhance trust and reduce risk.

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. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  2. DNS health

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

    • High

      Weak SPF Policy

      SPF record has permissive policy allowing any server to send email

      What to do: Use -all or ~all qualifier for better email security

  3. 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';…

  4. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

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 small event organization focused on humor festivals, likely generating revenue through event ticketing and possibly merchandise sales. The business model centers on organizing and promoting international comedy events. The lack of detailed business information, contact details, and certifications limits the ability to assess market positioning and competitive advantages fully. The use of WooCommerce indicates some e-commerce activity, but no partner or subsidiary domains were identified. The site targets a broad audience interested in humor and entertainment, with content primarily in French and localized to Switzerland. Growth indicators and partnership ecosystems are not evident from the provided data.

Security posture

The security posture of the website is basic to low. HTTPS is assumed but not explicitly confirmed in the data. No security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or Strict-Transport-Security were detected. The absence of privacy and cookie policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates compliance gaps, particularly with GDPR and other data protection regulations. The presence of an unconfigured Google Analytics plugin suggests minimal user tracking currently, reducing privacy risks but also indicating incomplete analytics implementation. There is no evidence of exposed sensitive data or known vulnerabilities from the provided content. The site would benefit from implementing security best practices, including security headers, clear privacy policies, and incident response procedures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements and consent mechanisms.
  2. Configure and secure Google Analytics properly or remove if not used to avoid incomplete tracking and privacy issues.
  3. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection.
  4. Publish contact information including emails and phone numbers for general and security incident reporting.
  5. Establish and publish an incident response policy and vulnerability disclosure program to improve security culture and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses WordPress CMS with the Divi theme and WooCommerce plugin, indicating a common and flexible platform for event and e-commerce sites. Google Fonts and jQuery libraries are used for styling and interactivity. The site appears to have moderate performance and good mobile responsiveness based on the CSS and layout. However, no advanced performance optimization or accessibility features were detected. The site lacks modern security headers and privacy compliance features. The technical stack is standard but requires updates to meet current security and privacy standards. Hosting provider details were not available, limiting infrastructure assessment.
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.
