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

RATP Dev USA operates as a regional branch of the global RATP Dev group, providing urban and intercity transportation services across multiple continents. The company offers a wide range of transit solutions including bus, tramway, paratransit, metro, rail, cable cars, and sightseeing services. Their market position is strong as one of the largest multi-modal urban public transit operators with over 120 subsidiaries in 17 countries. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image targeting transit agencies and passengers. Technically, the website is built on Drupal 10 CMS and leverages modern web technologies including Google Analytics, Matomo for analytics, and Google Maps API for geolocation features. The site is moderately performant, mobile-optimized, and has good SEO and accessibility basics. However, some security best practices such as security headers are missing, and no explicit security or incident response policies are published. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and privacy-conscious analytics configurations, but the lack of WHOIS data and absence of privacy policy and contact information reduce trust. No signs of malware or phishing were detected. Overall, the site is safe and business-focused but would benefit from improved transparency and security disclosures. The risk assessment indicates moderate risk primarily due to missing WHOIS data and incomplete privacy and security disclosures. Strategic recommendations include publishing privacy and security policies, adding security headers, providing clear contact information, and establishing a vulnerability disclosure process.

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.

  1. 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 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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 Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google APIs

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

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

RATP Dev USA is part of a global transportation group specializing in operating and maintaining public transit systems worldwide. Their competitive advantage lies in their multi-modal expertise and global footprint, enabling them to leverage local knowledge with global best practices. The business model focuses on service contracts with transit agencies, offering operational excellence and innovative transit solutions. Target customers include municipal transit authorities and regional governments. Growth indicators include expansion into multiple continents and a large number of subsidiaries. The partnership ecosystem includes related regional and parent company websites, enhancing brand reach and operational synergy.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and privacy-respecting analytics configurations. However, the absence of WHOIS registration data raises concerns about domain legitimacy. No security headers were detected, and no explicit security or incident response policies are published on the site. There is no evidence of a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file. Data protection practices are minimal, and contact channels for security incidents are not provided. Compliance with GDPR is not clearly indicated, although cookie consent mechanisms are implemented. Overall, the security posture is functional but lacks transparency and formal policies.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages to improve transparency and compliance.
  2. Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Provide clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for general and security-related inquiries.
  4. Establish and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy and security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Verify and update WHOIS registration data to ensure domain legitimacy and trustworthiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal 10 CMS, a modern and widely used content management system, ensuring a solid technical foundation. It integrates Google Analytics and Matomo for analytics, indicating a mature approach to user tracking and data analysis. The use of Google Maps API enhances user experience with interactive geolocation features. The site is mobile-optimized and uses responsive design principles. Performance is moderate, with room for improvement in loading speed and accessibility features. The absence of security headers and incomplete metadata indicate areas for technical enhancement to improve security and SEO.
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.
