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

Météo-France Saint Pierre et Miquelon is the official regional meteorological service providing comprehensive weather forecasts, marine weather information, satellite animations, climate data, and cyclone tracking for the Saint Pierre and Miquelon archipelago. The website is well-branded with consistent government imagery and links to official Météo-France resources, targeting the general public and residents of the region. The business model is that of a government service focused on public information dissemination. Technically, the site is built on Drupal CMS with modern web technologies including Leaflet.js for interactive maps, Google Tag Manager for analytics, and Didomi for consent management. The site is mobile optimized, accessible, and SEO friendly, with moderate performance. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced and standard security headers present, though explicit security policies and incident response contacts are not published. Overall, the website demonstrates a mature digital infrastructure with good privacy compliance and transparent advertising practices. No critical vulnerabilities or suspicious activities were detected. The domain registration is consistent and appropriate for the business, enhancing trustworthiness. Strategic recommendations include publishing explicit security and incident response policies and establishing a vulnerability disclosure program to further strengthen security posture.

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

7 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 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 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

  • 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

Météo-France Saint Pierre et Miquelon holds a strong market position as the official government meteorological service for the region. Its competitive advantage lies in authoritative, localized weather and climate data, supported by partnerships with national and international meteorological agencies. The business model is public service oriented, funded by government resources, targeting residents, mariners, and the general public. The website supports growth through digital engagement and multimedia content. The partnership ecosystem includes regional meteorological services and scientific data providers, enhancing data quality and service breadth.

Security posture

The website exhibits a solid security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and multiple security headers implemented. Consent management is handled via Didomi, indicating GDPR compliance. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were identified in the HTML content. However, the absence of published security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates room for improvement in transparency and readiness. The site uses third-party scripts for analytics and advertising, which should be regularly audited to mitigate supply chain risks. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by formalizing security governance documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response plan accessible on the website.
  2. Establish and publicize a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Provide clear contact channels for security incidents, such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  4. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and advertising networks to minimize security risks.
  5. Enhance transparency by including certifications or compliance badges related to security and privacy.

Technical notes

Notes

The website leverages Drupal CMS, a robust and widely used platform, ensuring scalability and maintainability. Interactive maps are implemented using Leaflet.js, providing a rich user experience. Analytics and marketing tools include Google Tag Manager and Hubvisor, integrated with a consent management platform (Didomi) for GDPR compliance. The site is mobile optimized and accessible, with good SEO practices evident in meta tags and structured navigation. Performance is moderate, likely influenced by third-party scripts and advertising content. Opportunities exist to optimize loading times and further modernize the tech stack by adopting newer frontend frameworks or CDN strategies.
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.
