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

Websee Mairie, operated by Net15, is a specialized service provider offering turnkey website creation solutions for French local governments including town halls, collectivités, EPCI, and syndicates. With nearly 30 years of experience and over 700 sites delivered, they provide custom design, SEO optimization, accessibility compliance, and comprehensive training for autonomous site management. The company positions itself as a trusted partner for public sector digital presence, emphasizing proximity and personalized support from their base in Aurillac, France. Technically, the website is powered by the WebSee CMS platform, leveraging jQuery and Fancybox libraries, and hosted by Net15. The site is well-optimized for mobile and accessibility standards, with good SEO practices and a moderate performance profile. Security posture is strong, featuring SSL certificates with A+ ratings, robust security headers, and regular third-party audits. However, the absence of a publicly accessible privacy policy page and WHOIS data transparency slightly reduce trust scores. Overall, the website is professional, secure, and compliant with cookie consent regulations, serving a clear government sector niche.

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.

    • 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 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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Facebook, Google APIs

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  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

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.

Business context

Business profile

Websee Mairie operates in the government and technology sectors, targeting French local authorities and public entities. Their business model centers on providing end-to-end website creation, hosting, and support services tailored to the unique needs of municipalities and collectivités. The company leverages its long-standing market presence and specialized expertise as competitive advantages. Revenue streams likely include website development fees, hosting subscriptions, training, and support contracts. The partnership ecosystem includes Net15 for hosting and WebSee for CMS technology. Growth indicators include a large portfolio of over 700 sites and active client references. Strategic observations highlight a focus on accessibility compliance and eco-design, aligning with public sector priorities. The company maintains a consistent brand and professional online presence, supported by social media channels and client testimonials.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and SSL certificates rated A+ by Qualys. Security headers are implemented and rated A+ by securityheaders.com, indicating strong protection against common web vulnerabilities. Regular security audits by Bureau Veritas and insurer assessments further enhance trust. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response plan, or vulnerability disclosure mechanism represents a compliance gap. Data protection officer contact information is not provided, which may be a consideration for GDPR compliance. Overall, the site is secure for its intended use but could improve transparency and formalize security governance documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page clearly accessible from the homepage and footer.
  2. Add a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and compliance.
  3. Implement a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Provide contact details for a Data Protection Officer or privacy contact to align with GDPR requirements.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party libraries and scripts to maintain security hygiene.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a mature and stable technology stack centered on jQuery 1.12.1 and Fancybox for UI interactions, combined with Google Fonts for typography. The CMS platform is proprietary WebSee, specialized for municipal websites. Hosting is provided by Net15, a partner company. The site is mobile optimized and accessible, with good SEO meta tags and Open Graph integration. Performance is moderate, with some room for optimization in script loading and image handling. The site employs eco-design principles such as WebP images and limited scripts to reduce carbon footprint. No modern JavaScript frameworks or advanced backend technologies are detected, indicating a traditional but reliable architecture. Technical risks include potential legacy library vulnerabilities and lack of advanced performance optimization techniques.
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.
