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

EDF Power Solutions is a global energy company specializing in the development, construction, and operation of renewable and low-carbon power plants, as well as flexibility and transmission solutions. The company is positioned as a responsible and innovative industrial entity with a broad international presence, supported by multiple subsidiary websites across various countries. The website reflects a professional corporate image with consistent branding and a clear focus on sustainability and energy transition. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using Elementor and several plugins for SEO, marketing automation, and user experience enhancements. It employs modern web technologies and demonstrates good mobile optimization and SEO practices. Privacy compliance is well addressed with GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanisms and detailed privacy and terms of service pages. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and has domain status protections to prevent unauthorized changes. However, it lacks DNSSEC and explicit security headers, and no public security policy or incident response contacts are provided. The WHOIS data shows inconsistencies, notably a future domain creation date and minimal registrant information, which slightly detracts from trustworthiness. Overall, the website is professional, secure, and compliant with privacy regulations, but improvements in security transparency and WHOIS data accuracy are recommended to enhance trust and resilience.

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

11 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • Critical

      DNS Resolution Failed

      Unable to resolve domain A records

      What to do: Verify domain is properly configured and not expired

  2. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: PostgreSQL

      Port 5432 (PostgreSQL) is publicly accessible - PostgreSQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to PostgreSQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
  3. 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
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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';…

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 · found on this site
  • 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

EDF Power Solutions operates in the energy sector with a focus on renewable and low-carbon technologies. Its business model centers on industrial-scale energy solutions, targeting global markets with subsidiaries in Europe, Americas, Asia, and Africa. The company leverages its parent group EDF's brand and infrastructure to maintain a strong market position. The website's multilingual support and extensive network of related domains indicate a mature international strategy. Marketing efforts include the use of Brevo for automation and Piano Analytics for user behavior tracking, supporting data-driven growth and customer engagement. The absence of direct contact emails or phone numbers on the main site suggests a controlled communication approach, likely routed through legal or dedicated contact pages.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security posture with HTTPS enforced and domain status protections in place. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces its defense-in-depth. No explicit security or incident response policies are published, and no dedicated security contact emails are found. The WHOIS data anomaly with a future domain creation date raises concerns about domain registration transparency. No vulnerable libraries or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a corporate site but could be strengthened by implementing additional security headers, publishing security policies, and correcting WHOIS information.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement standard security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to protect against common web attacks.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  4. Correct WHOIS data to reflect accurate domain creation date and registrant information to improve trust.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and plugins for vulnerabilities and update them promptly.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress with Elementor as the page builder, supported by plugins for SEO (Yoast), marketing automation (Brevo), and search filtering. It uses jQuery and custom fonts hosted on the domain. The site is responsive and optimized for mobile devices with good SEO metadata including Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data. Performance is moderate, with no major blocking scripts detected. Hosting provider details are not explicit. The site uses multiple external domains for marketing and analytics but no ad networks or affiliate programs were detected. The technical stack is modern and well integrated but could benefit from enhanced security configurations 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.
