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

Public ID is a creative communication agency based in Lille, France, specializing in graphic identity, logo design, website development, print and web graphic creations, emailing campaigns, SEO audits, and event management. The agency targets businesses and organizations seeking tailored communication solutions and has established a portfolio with notable clients, indicating a solid regional market presence. The website is built on WordPress using modern plugins and frameworks, reflecting a mature digital infrastructure. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS enabled and no visible sensitive data exposure, though security headers and formal policies are lacking. The absence of WHOIS data reduces transparency but the website content and client testimonials support legitimacy. Strategic recommendations include publishing privacy and cookie policies, implementing security headers, and adding a vulnerability disclosure mechanism to enhance trust and compliance.

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

10 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

  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

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

Public ID operates as a small-sized creative agency focusing on bespoke communication services. Its business model revolves around delivering customized branding, web, and marketing solutions to a diverse client base, including well-known companies. The agency leverages partnerships and client relationships to strengthen its market position. Revenue streams likely derive from project-based contracts in graphic design, web development, and digital marketing. The company maintains active social media channels and showcases client testimonials, enhancing credibility and customer engagement. Growth potential exists through expanding digital marketing services and formalizing compliance frameworks.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to good security posture with mandatory HTTPS in place and no apparent exposure of sensitive information. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security represents a missed opportunity to harden defenses against common web attacks. No security.txt or incident response contacts are published, limiting transparency for vulnerability reporting. Forms are present but lack explicit anti-CSRF or input validation indicators. Privacy and cookie policies are absent, which may lead to GDPR compliance gaps. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but can be significantly improved with standard best practices and policy disclosures.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to ensure GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Add a security.txt file to provide clear vulnerability disclosure and incident response contacts.
  4. Enhance form security with anti-CSRF tokens and robust input validation.
  5. Regularly verify domain WHOIS registration to maintain transparency and trustworthiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern tech stack including Yoast SEO, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and popular JavaScript libraries like Swiper.js and Slick Slider. The site uses Elementor and WPBakery page builders, indicating a flexible and customizable front-end. Performance is moderate with caching and minification evident but could benefit from further optimization. Mobile responsiveness is good, and SEO metadata is well implemented. Accessibility features are basic and could be enhanced for broader compliance. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and functional user experience but has room for modernization and security hardening.
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.
