Risk levelMedium

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

Montélibus operates as the public transportation network for Montélimar Agglomération in France, providing bus services, route planning, schedules, and real-time traffic updates. The website is designed to serve residents and visitors seeking transit information within the region. It leverages TYPO3 CMS and integrates modern web technologies including Google Fonts and cookie consent management via tarteaucitron. The presence of a clear contact phone number and social media link enhances user engagement and trust. However, the absence of WHOIS data limits domain trust verification. The website lacks explicit privacy policy and terms of service pages, which are important for regulatory compliance and user trust. Security headers are not detected, suggesting room for improvement in security posture. Overall, the site is functional, informative, and professionally presented, but could benefit from enhanced transparency and security practices.

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 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';…

  3. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

Montélibus holds a local/regional market position as the essential public transportation provider for Montélimar Agglomération. Its business model focuses on delivering transit services to a defined geographic area, targeting commuters, residents, and visitors. The website supports this by offering itinerary calculation, timetable access, and traffic alerts. The integration of social media and contact options indicates an active communication strategy. The lack of detailed corporate information and WHOIS transparency suggests a public or municipal entity rather than a commercial enterprise. The site’s partnership with koredge.fr for development and use of standard web technologies reflects a stable operational infrastructure. Growth indicators are not explicit, but the regular updates on traffic and schedules imply ongoing service management.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and includes a cookie consent mechanism, indicating baseline security and privacy awareness. However, no security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, or X-Frame-Options are detected, which are recommended to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. The absence of a published privacy policy and incident response contacts represents compliance gaps, especially under GDPR. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were identified in the provided content. The WHOIS data absence reduces the ability to fully assess domain legitimacy and ownership transparency. Overall, the security posture is moderate but would benefit from implementing recommended HTTP security headers, publishing privacy and security policies, and improving WHOIS transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page detailing data processing and GDPR compliance.
  2. Implement standard security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Provide explicit incident response and abuse contact information on the website.
  4. Ensure WHOIS data is complete and publicly accessible to improve domain trustworthiness.
  5. Add terms of service and vulnerability disclosure policies to enhance transparency and user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a mature and extensible content management system, indicating a solid technical foundation. It uses Google Fonts for typography and tarteaucitron for cookie consent management, reflecting compliance with EU cookie regulations. Google Tag Manager is integrated for analytics and marketing purposes. The site appears mobile-optimized with good accessibility and SEO practices, including meta tags and Open Graph data. Performance is moderate, with no critical errors or broken elements detected. The technical stack is modern but could be enhanced with improved security configurations and more transparent hosting information. There is no explicit hosting provider identified from the content. Overall, the technical implementation supports the business needs effectively with room for security and compliance improvements.
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.
