ModemManager.org is the official website for the ModemManager project, an open source system daemon that manages WWAN devices and connections on GNU/Linux platforms. The project is well-established since 2014 and is integrated into major Linux distributions, serving developers, system integrators, and embedded system builders. The website provides documentation, source code repositories, and community mailing lists to support users and contributors. Technically, the site is a static website generated by Hugo, using modern web technologies such as jQuery and SVG graphics, hosted by Acens Technologies in Spain. The site is performant, mobile-optimized, and well-structured, though it lacks advanced SEO and accessibility features. Security-wise, the domain registration is transparent and consistent with the project's open source nature, but the website lacks security headers, privacy policies, and incident response information, which are areas for improvement. Overall, the site is trustworthy and professional but could enhance its privacy compliance and 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
6 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.
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"

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.

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.

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.

Business context
Business profile
The ModemManager project occupies a strong niche as the default mobile broadband management system in most GNU/Linux distributions, giving it a solid market position within the open source and Linux ecosystem. Its business model is community-driven open source development, with contributions hosted on freedesktop.org GitLab. The project targets developers, Linux users, and embedded system integrators, with no direct commercial revenue streams evident. The presence of active mailing lists and integration with major distributions indicates a healthy partnership ecosystem and community engagement. The project is small in size but important in the technology sector, particularly in telecommunications and networking. The registrant is an individual in Spain, consistent with the open source community's decentralized nature.
Security posture
The website and domain show a moderate security maturity level. The domain is secured with clientTransferProhibited status but lacks DNSSEC. The website does not present security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or Strict-Transport-Security, and no HTTPS configuration details are available from the data. There are no published security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms, which limits transparency and readiness for security incidents. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. The absence of privacy and cookie policies indicates compliance gaps with GDPR and related regulations. Overall, the security posture is functional but could be significantly improved by adopting standard security best practices and compliance documentation.
Recommendations
Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to comply with GDPR.
Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to improve website security.
Provide clear contact information for security incidents, including an abuse or security@ email address.
Conduct a security audit of the website and infrastructure to identify and remediate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes
Notes
The website is built using the Hugo static site generator, ensuring fast load times and good performance. It uses jQuery 3.6.3 and SVG for graphics, with CSS preloading for optimized rendering. The site is mobile-optimized and has a clear navigation structure, though accessibility features are basic. Hosting is provided by Acens Technologies in Spain, consistent with the registrant's location. The site lacks advanced SEO optimizations and does not use a CMS, reducing complexity but limiting dynamic content capabilities. There are no detected analytics or tracking scripts, which benefits privacy but limits user behavior insights. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern, lightweight, and well-suited for a documentation and project site, but could benefit from improved accessibility and SEO enhancements.
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.
