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

Daikin Lebanon's website represents a regional branch of Daikin, a global leader in HVAC and refrigerant solutions headquartered in Japan. The site offers comprehensive information about their products, services, and sustainability initiatives targeting residential and commercial customers in the Middle East and Africa. The website is professionally designed, mobile-optimized, and integrates modern analytics and marketing technologies such as Matomo and Google Tag Manager. Privacy and cookie policies are well implemented, reflecting good compliance with GDPR standards. However, the absence of WHOIS data for the domain raises concerns about domain registration transparency. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS enforced, but lacks explicit security headers and published security policies. Overall, the site is trustworthy and business credible but would benefit from enhanced security disclosures and direct contact information.

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

4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

  2. 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 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';…
  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.

    • 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.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

Daikin operates as a manufacturer and provider of HVAC and refrigerant solutions with a strong global presence and a focus on energy efficiency and sustainability. The website supports a business model that includes product sales, after-sale services, and customer engagement through virtual showrooms and dealer locators. The company targets both residential and commercial sectors in the Middle East and Africa, leveraging a well-established brand and extensive product range. Partnerships with regional and global Daikin sites are evident, supporting a cohesive ecosystem. The lack of WHOIS transparency is a minor risk factor but does not detract significantly from the company's market position or operational maturity.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security posture with HTTPS enabled and cookie consent mechanisms in place. However, it lacks visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, which are recommended to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which could hinder rapid response to security incidents. No sensitive data exposure or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The site would benefit from publishing a security policy and providing dedicated security contact channels to enhance trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish explicit security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Provide a dedicated security policy page and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Add a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Include direct company contact emails and phone numbers on the website to improve user trust and support accessibility.
  5. Investigate and resolve the absence of WHOIS data to enhance domain registration transparency and trustworthiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Adobe Experience Manager CMS, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries and analytics tools such as Matomo and Google Tag Manager. The site loads multiple deferred scripts and stylesheets, indicating a modular and performance-conscious architecture. Mobile optimization and accessibility features are well implemented, with ARIA labels and responsive design. SEO is supported by comprehensive meta tags and Open Graph data. Performance is moderate, with potential for improvement by optimizing third-party scripts. The lack of explicit security headers is a technical gap that should be addressed to reduce risk exposure.
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.
