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. 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

Numericatous operates in the education and technology sectors, focusing on free software and Linux training. Its competitive advantage lies in its ethical positioning and local partnerships, appealing to users concerned about data privacy and digital sovereignty. Revenue streams come from online course sales and digital resources. The target market includes both individuals and professionals in France. The company maintains strong partnerships with ethical hosting and software providers, enhancing its credibility. Growth potential exists in expanding training offerings and deepening community engagement. The business model is direct-to-consumer with an emphasis on transparency and ethical digital practices.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enabled and no exposed sensitive data. Use of Matomo analytics respects user privacy. However, the absence of explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement. No incident response or security policy is published, which could enhance trust. The site uses secure forms with consent checkboxes for newsletter subscriptions. No vulnerabilities or suspicious scripts were detected. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from enhanced HTTP header configurations and formalized security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a formal security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Regularly audit and update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance monitoring of security events and consider automated alerts for suspicious activities.
  5. Continue promoting privacy compliance and consider publishing data retention policies.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS with WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality, hosted by a reputable French provider (LRob). It uses the Astra theme, optimized for performance and mobile responsiveness. JavaScript is deferred and minified for speed. Matomo analytics is used for privacy-conscious tracking. The site has good SEO metadata, Open Graph tags, and structured data (JSON-LD) for enhanced search engine visibility. Accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA labels are present. The technical stack is well-maintained with no signs of technical debt or deprecated technologies. Opportunities exist to improve security headers and formalize security documentation.
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.
