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. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

  2. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  3. 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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

  4. 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';…

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

AREAL operates in the industrial software market, focusing on SCADA and supervisory control systems. Its business model includes software licensing and associated services like support, training, and project accompaniment. The company targets medium to large enterprises across multiple sectors with complex automation needs. The presence of major clients such as Engie, Veolia, and EDF indicates strong market positioning and credibility. The website's content and partner logos reinforce AREAL's reputation and long-term client relationships. The company leverages certifications and compliance as competitive advantages. Marketing tools and analytics are used responsibly to balance user experience and privacy.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced, ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification, and use of Google reCAPTCHA to protect forms. Cookie consent is managed via tarteaucitron.js, allowing granular user control. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options are not visibly present and should be implemented to enhance protection against common web attacks. There is no visible incident response or vulnerability disclosure information, which could be improved to demonstrate readiness. Overall, the security measures align well with industry best practices for a software publisher.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen web security.
  2. Publish a security.txt file to provide clear vulnerability disclosure and incident response contact information.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and dependencies to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance transparency by providing explicit contact details for data protection officer or privacy inquiries.
  5. Continue to monitor and improve cookie consent mechanisms to maintain GDPR compliance and user trust.

The website is built on Drupal 10 CMS, utilizing modern JavaScript libraries including jQuery, GSAP, and Slick Carousel for interactive and animated content. It employs Bootstrap and Font Awesome for responsive design and iconography. Cookie management is handled by tarteaucitron.js, and Google reCAPTCHA protects forms from spam and abuse. The site is mobile optimized with good accessibility features and SEO meta tags. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous loading of scripts and optimized images. No critical technical debt or outdated technologies were detected, indicating a well-maintained infrastructure suitable for enterprise use.
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.
