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

Sandoz Group AG is a global pharmaceutical company specializing in generic and biosimilar medicines. The website content indicates a focus on prescription and over-the-counter medicines, biopharmaceuticals, and therapeutic areas, targeting healthcare professionals and patients. The site is built using modern web technologies including React and Next.js with a Drupal CMS backend. However, the current accessible page is a 404 error page, indicating missing content. No WHOIS registration data is available for the domain www.my-sandoz.com, which raises concerns about domain legitimacy. The site uses Google Tag Manager for analytics but lacks visible privacy and cookie policies, impacting compliance. Security headers and SSL configuration details are not evident from the data provided, suggesting room for improvement in security posture.

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

6 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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 Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • 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: Google Analytics

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

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

The company operates in the healthcare sector with a strong market position in generics and biosimilars. The business model revolves around pharmaceutical manufacturing and distribution. The website structure and branding are consistent with a large enterprise. However, the lack of WHOIS data and missing content on the domain may indicate issues with domain registration or site maintenance. The absence of contact information and compliance policies on the accessible page limits transparency and user trust. The company likely relies on other domains for full corporate presence, as indicated by links to sandoz-fr.cms.sandoz.com and sandoz.fr.

Security posture

The security posture is moderate but incomplete due to missing security headers and unknown SSL configuration. The use of Google Tag Manager indicates some level of user tracking but no explicit privacy or cookie consent mechanisms are visible. The absence of incident response contacts or security policies reduces readiness for security incidents. The domain's WHOIS data absence is a significant risk factor, potentially indicating domain registration issues or privacy protection that is not justified. Overall, the site requires enhancements in security best practices, compliance transparency, and domain legitimacy verification.

Recommendations

  1. Verify and update domain registration to ensure WHOIS data is available and accurate.
  2. Implement and publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with GDPR compliance.
  3. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Ensure HTTPS is enforced with strong SSL/TLS configuration.
  5. Provide clear contact information including security incident response channels.
  6. Restore or update website content to avoid 404 errors and improve user experience.
  7. Enhance accessibility and SEO metadata for better reach and compliance.
  8. Review and limit user tracking to comply with privacy regulations.
  9. Regularly audit website for vulnerabilities and update third-party libraries.
  10. Improve transparency and trust signals to strengthen business credibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern React and Next.js frontend framework with a Drupal CMS backend, indicating a contemporary and scalable infrastructure. Google Tag Manager is integrated for analytics and tracking. The site performance is moderate with basic mobile optimization and accessibility features. However, the current accessible page is a 404 error page, suggesting content management or routing issues. No detailed hosting provider information is available. The absence of security headers and privacy policies indicates technical debt in security and compliance areas. The domain's WHOIS data is missing, which may reflect domain registration or DNS configuration problems. Overall, the technical stack is modern but requires maintenance and security improvements to support business operations effectively.
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.
