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

Terre de Provence Agglomération is a French regional government entity serving 13 communes, providing a broad range of public services including urban planning, waste management, cultural activities, and economic development. The website is well-structured, professionally designed, and targets residents and businesses within the region. Technically, the site uses the SPIP CMS, Bootstrap framework, and integrates cookie consent management and Google Analytics for tracking. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and no visible vulnerabilities, though some security headers and explicit policies are missing. The WHOIS data is notably absent, which is unusual for a government domain and slightly reduces trustworthiness. Overall, the site is safe, compliant with GDPR, and provides clear contact information and social media presence.

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

5 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.

    • 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. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1
  3. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Domain Expires Soon

      Domain expires in 28 days

      What to do: Renew domain registration before expiration

  4. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

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.

Add-on

Leaked records that mention terredeprovence-agglo.com, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for terredeprovence-agglo.com right now. New leaks arrive continuously, so monitoring on Breach alerts you if that changes.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

The website positions Terre de Provence Agglomération as a key regional government authority with a focus on community services and sustainable development. Its business model is public sector governance, funded by local government budgets. The site supports transparency through published administrative acts, public tenders, and newsletters. The partnership with www.myterredeprovence.fr indicates a collaborative approach to community engagement. The lack of WHOIS data is a minor anomaly but does not detract significantly from the site's credibility given the official branding and content.

Security posture

The site demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS, cookie consent, and no exposed sensitive data. However, the absence of security headers like CSP and lack of published security policies or incident response contacts are gaps. No security.txt or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms were found. The site does not appear to use any WAF or blocking services, and no malware or phishing indicators were detected. Overall, the security risk is low but could be improved with formalized policies and headers.

Recommendations

  1. Add and enforce security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Implement a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Investigate and resolve the missing WHOIS data to improve domain trust and legitimacy.
  5. Continue maintaining GDPR compliance and update cookie consent mechanisms as regulations evolve.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the SPIP CMS platform with Bootstrap 3 for responsive design and jQuery for interactivity. It uses Google Fonts for typography and integrates Google Analytics via Google Tag Manager for visitor tracking. Cookie consent is managed by the tarteaucitron library, which is well integrated. The site loads moderately fast and is mobile optimized with good accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA roles. Some legacy scripts and CSS could be modernized, but overall the technical implementation is solid and supports a good user experience.
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.
