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

  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

    • 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

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

Val de Loire TV holds a niche position as a regional broadcaster in the French media landscape, focusing on local news and cultural programming. Its competitive advantage lies in its digital streaming and replay capabilities, allowing viewers to access content on demand. The company leverages partnerships with local news outlets such as La Nouvelle République and maintains an active social media presence across Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, and LinkedIn to engage its audience. Revenue streams likely include advertising and sponsored content. The business targets regional viewers interested in local politics, events, and culture, with growth potential in digital engagement and content diversification. The partnership ecosystem includes media and analytics providers, enhancing content delivery and audience measurement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level. HTTPS is properly implemented, ensuring encrypted communications. The presence of a cookie consent mechanism via Didomi indicates attention to privacy regulations such as GDPR. However, the absence of explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement in mitigating common web vulnerabilities. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The lack of a published security policy or incident response contact limits transparency and readiness for security incidents. Overall, the site is secure for general use but would benefit from enhanced security controls and clearer compliance documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy page accessible from the homepage to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Add and configure security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Referrer-Policy to strengthen web security.
  3. Provide explicit contact information for security incidents or abuse reports to enhance incident response readiness.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct periodic performance optimizations to improve user experience across devices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 6.8.2, utilizing a modern tech stack including jQuery, Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, and Didomi for consent management. Video content is delivered via embedded iframes from Ultimedia and Digiteka, indicating reliance on third-party streaming services. The site uses common WordPress plugins for ads (Advanced Ads), social sharing (AddToAny), and lightbox effects (Easy Fancybox). Performance is moderate with room for optimization, especially in script loading and caching. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive design and accessible navigation. SEO is supported by Yoast SEO plugin with proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD) describing the organization and webpage. Hosting provider details are not explicitly found. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could benefit from enhanced security headers and performance tuning.
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.
