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

    • 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

  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 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

Télécom SudParis holds a strong market position as a leading French engineering school with a focus on digital and telecommunications education. Its affiliation with Institut Mines-Télécom and Institut Polytechnique de Paris enhances its credibility and reach. The business model centers on delivering high-quality engineering education, research excellence, and fostering international collaborations. Revenue streams likely include tuition fees, research grants, corporate partnerships, and lifelong learning programs. The target customer segments include domestic and international students, academic researchers, and industry partners. The website demonstrates a well-established partnership ecosystem with multiple certifications and accreditations, reflecting a mature operational structure and strategic market presence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.3 and 1.2) supported. Security headers such as X-Frame-Options (DENY) and X-Content-Type-Options (nosniff) are implemented, reducing risks of clickjacking and MIME sniffing attacks. No critical vulnerabilities like Heartbleed, FREAK, or Logjam are detected. However, OCSP stapling is not enabled, and HSTS is present but not fully enabled with subdomains or preload, which could be improved. The DNS CAA records appear misconfigured with 'undefined' entries, which should be corrected to prevent unauthorized certificate issuance. Privacy and cookie policies are comprehensive with consent mechanisms, indicating good compliance with GDPR. Incident response and security policy pages are not found, suggesting an area for improvement in transparency and readiness. Overall, the security posture is good but can be enhanced with minor adjustments.

Recommendations

  1. Enable full HSTS including subdomains and preload to strengthen HTTPS enforcement.
  2. Implement OCSP stapling to improve SSL certificate revocation checking and reduce latency.
  3. Correct DNS CAA records to valid entries to prevent unauthorized certificate issuance.
  4. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party plugins and scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a robust and modern technical infrastructure using WordPress CMS with PHP 8.3 and Apache server. It leverages popular plugins and libraries such as jQuery, WP Rocket for caching and performance optimization, SiteOrigin Panels for layout, and Max Mega Menu for navigation. Analytics and tracking are implemented via Google Analytics, Matomo, and Google Tag Manager, with user privacy managed by Tarteaucitron. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and SEO-friendly with proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). Performance is fast with lazy loading and resource preloading. Minor technical debts include incomplete CAA DNS records and disabled OCSP stapling. Overall, the technical stack is modern, well-maintained, and aligned with best practices for educational websites.
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.
