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

Néo Terra is a regional government initiative by the Région Nouvelle-Aquitaine focused on accelerating ecological and social transition in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. The website serves as a platform to promote projects, engage stakeholders, and provide information about the region's ambitions in areas such as natural resources, solidarity, agriculture, economy, mobility, and health. The target audience includes public and private actors, partners, and citizens interested in sustainability and ecological transition. The business model is centered on community engagement and regional support rather than commercial activities. Technically, the website is built on WordPress 6.8.1 using PHP 8.2.28 and the Yootheme theme with UIkit framework. It is hosted on OVH infrastructure. SEO is well implemented with Yoast SEO plugin and structured data (JSON-LD) is used for enhanced search engine understanding. However, performance metrics are missing and the site is likely slow. Mobile optimization is good, but accessibility is basic. From a security perspective, the site lacks a valid SSL certificate, resulting in no HTTPS support, which is a critical issue. No modern TLS protocols or cipher suites are enabled, and several security best practices are missing. The only positive security header is HSTS, but without HTTPS it is ineffective. No explicit security or incident response policies are published. Privacy compliance is good with a clear privacy and cookie policy and GDPR adherence. Overall, the site is functional and professional but has a critical security vulnerability due to missing SSL. Strategic improvements in SSL deployment and security hardening are essential to protect user data and improve trust.

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

8 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

  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 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';…

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

Néo Terra occupies a strategic position as a regional government initiative driving ecological transition in Nouvelle-Aquitaine. Its competitive advantage lies in official backing by the regional government and a comprehensive approach covering multiple sectors including energy, agriculture, mobility, and health. The business model is non-commercial, focusing on community engagement and project support. Revenue streams are not applicable as it is a public service initiative. The target customers are regional actors and citizens interested in sustainability. Growth indicators include active project labeling and community building. Partnerships are evident with regional social media presence and event organization. The operation is transparent with clear branding and structured content. Strategically, the initiative could expand its digital presence and improve technical infrastructure to enhance user experience and security posture.

Security posture

The current security posture is weak due to the absence of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS support, which is a critical vulnerability exposing users to data interception risks. The server uses modern PHP but lacks TLS protocol support and strong cipher suites. Security headers are minimal, with only HSTS present but ineffective without HTTPS. No incident response or security policies are published, indicating low maturity in security governance. Privacy policies are well documented and GDPR compliant, which is a positive aspect. The site does not expose sensitive data or vulnerable libraries visibly. Overall, the security risk is high and immediate remediation is required to enable HTTPS and improve server security configurations.

Recommendations

  1. Install and maintain a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Enable modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3) and configure strong cipher suites to secure communications.
  3. Implement additional security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  4. Publish a formal security policy and incident response plan to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Regularly update all software components including WordPress, themes, and plugins to reduce vulnerability exposure.

Notes

The website is built on a modern PHP 8.2.28 backend with WordPress 6.8.1 CMS and uses the Yootheme theme with UIkit framework for frontend UI components. SEO is enhanced with Yoast SEO plugin and structured data is implemented via JSON-LD. Hosting is provided by OVH as indicated by DNS records. Performance data is missing but likely suboptimal due to lack of SSL and caching inefficiencies. Mobile optimization is good with responsive design and adaptive images. Accessibility is basic with no advanced ARIA roles detected. The site uses Google Analytics for tracking. Technical debt is moderate with opportunity to improve security and performance by enabling HTTPS and optimizing server configuration.
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.
