Web Segura

A public ranking that made Spanish government website security settings visible and comparable.

Open project

The problem

Weak website security settings were hard for the public to see.

Scope
Hundreds of public sites
Partner
Pucelabits
Response
Upgrades after launch

Developed with the privacy and cyber-rights association Pucelabits, the project made a technical security problem easy to inspect and compare.

  • Hundreds of Spanish government websites were ranked by their security configuration.
  • The public format turned hidden technical debt into institutional pressure.
  • Several important sites upgraded their settings days after release, as press coverage began to surface the issue.
