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

The website suivi-pacte-transition.org is a French non-profit project focused on monitoring and evaluating local government policies related to environmental and social transition based on the Pacte pour la Transition. It provides tools, reports, and interactive maps to engage citizens and collectives in assessing municipal progress. The project is supported by recognized partners such as Collectif Transition Citoyenne, Réseau Action Climat, and Alternatiba, positioning it as a niche but credible player in the environmental non-profit sector. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with modern front-end technologies including Vue.js, Axios, Leaflet for mapping, and Tailwind CSS for styling. It is hosted by OVH sas, a reputable provider, and uses HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate. Performance and mobile optimization are good, though accessibility is basic. SEO is well addressed with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and domain protections like clientDeleteProhibited status but lacks DNSSEC and visible security headers, which are recommended for enhanced security. No privacy or cookie policies are present, indicating compliance gaps with GDPR and related regulations. Google Analytics is used for tracking without a visible consent mechanism, which may pose privacy concerns. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy with good content quality and business credibility but would benefit from improved privacy compliance and security hardening. Strategic recommendations include adding privacy and cookie policies, enabling DNSSEC, implementing security headers, and providing vulnerability disclosure information.

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. 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';…

  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 Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

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

The project operates in the environmental non-profit sector, targeting citizens, local collectives, and municipalities interested in climate and social transition policies. Its business model is based on providing open evaluation tools and reports to foster citizen engagement and accountability. The partnership ecosystem with established organizations strengthens its market position. The website content and resources indicate active community involvement and ongoing data collection efforts. Growth potential lies in expanding collective participation and geographic coverage. Revenue streams are likely grant or donation-based, typical for non-profits. The project demonstrates a clear mission focus and professional digital presence.

Security posture

The website exhibits a moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced, and domain registration protections are in place. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The lack of privacy and cookie policies and no visible incident response or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicate compliance and operational gaps. The use of Google Analytics without consent mechanisms may expose the project to GDPR risks. Overall, the security posture is adequate but requires improvements to align with best practices and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  3. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies and implement a cookie consent mechanism to ensure GDPR compliance.
  4. Add a security.txt file or equivalent vulnerability disclosure policy to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Review and document data retention policies related to analytics and user data to enhance privacy transparency.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack combining WordPress CMS with Vue.js for frontend interactivity, Axios for HTTP requests, Leaflet for mapping, and Tailwind CSS for styling. The hosting provider is OVH sas, a reputable European host. The site loads external scripts asynchronously and uses Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics for tracking. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization. Accessibility is basic and could be improved. SEO is well implemented with meta tags and Open Graph data. No broken links or errors were detected in the HTML content. The site lacks DNSSEC and security headers, which are technical risks. Overall, the infrastructure is solid but could benefit from security and privacy enhancements.
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.
