Risk levelLow

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

Cemex is a leading global company specializing in sustainable construction materials, focusing on innovation and environmental responsibility. Their website reflects a mature digital presence built on the Liferay platform, incorporating modern web technologies such as React and advanced JavaScript modules. The site offers comprehensive navigation and content relevant to industry professionals, investors, and partners. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS and OAuth2 endpoints, but lacks explicit security headers and published security policies. Privacy compliance is moderate with consent mechanisms but no visible privacy or cookie policies. The WHOIS data is notably missing, which raises concerns about domain registration transparency. Overall, the site is professional and trustworthy but would benefit from enhanced transparency and security documentation.

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.

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

Cemex operates in the manufacturing sector, specifically in construction materials like cement, concrete, and aggregates. The company targets a broad audience including construction professionals, suppliers, and sustainability advocates. Their business model emphasizes sustainable innovation and global market leadership. The website supports this with sections on products, sustainability initiatives, and corporate governance. The presence of stock quotes indicates public company status. The digital ecosystem includes analytics and marketing tools, but no direct evidence of affiliate or advertising networks. The lack of WHOIS data is unusual for a large enterprise and should be investigated further.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses OAuth2 for authentication endpoints, indicating a baseline of security best practices. Analytics scripts respect consent mechanisms, and no sensitive data is exposed in the HTML. However, the absence of common security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security posture. There is no published security policy, incident response information, or vulnerability disclosure program visible. These gaps suggest room for improvement in transparency and defense-in-depth strategies. No vulnerabilities or malicious indicators were detected in the analyzed content.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy accessible from the homepage.
  2. Add standard security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve trust and compliance.
  4. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Investigate and resolve the missing WHOIS data to ensure domain registration transparency.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Liferay DXP platform, leveraging React and Alloy UI components. It uses modern JavaScript modules and CSS variables for styling, indicating a contemporary front-end architecture. The site loads multiple scripts asynchronously and employs a CDN for static assets. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility features. SEO is supported by meta tags and Open Graph data. The technical infrastructure is solid but could benefit from enhanced accessibility and performance tuning. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified.
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.
