50/100

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

Primagaz is a well-established French energy supplier specializing in propane, butane, GPL, and biopropane gas products and services. Founded in 1938, the company targets both residential and professional customers, including those in remote areas not connected to natural gas networks. The website reflects a mature digital presence with comprehensive content, clear navigation, and strong branding consistency. However, the technical infrastructure shows weaknesses, notably the absence of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS support, which significantly impacts the security posture. Marketing and analytics tools such as Google Tag Manager, Visual Website Optimizer, and Cludo search are integrated, indicating a focus on user experience and conversion optimization. Privacy and cookie policies are present and GDPR compliant, enhancing trust. Overall, the site is professional and content-rich but requires urgent security improvements to protect user data and comply with modern web standards.

Scanned

3 of 7 checks could not complete. The site may be unreachable or blocking automated scans, so the results below cover only what could be checked. Try a rescan later.

NIS2 and GDPR posture

Both readouts depend on the site's pages, which could not be loaded in this scan.

Priority findings

1 finding rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • GDPR outside view: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

Primagaz holds a strong market position in the French energy sector, focusing on liquefied petroleum gases and renewable biopropane solutions. The business model revolves around supplying gas products via bottles and tanks, complemented by customer support and energy transition services. The company leverages digital tools for customer engagement and lead generation, including online quotation and consumption estimation. Its partnership with SHV Energy is implied, suggesting a broader corporate ecosystem. The presence of ECOVADIS certification and active social media channels supports its credibility and commitment to sustainability. The website content targets both individual consumers and professional clients, reflecting a diversified customer base and growth potential in energy transition markets.

Security posture

The website's security posture is currently weak due to the lack of a valid SSL certificate and absence of HTTPS, exposing users to potential data interception risks. While some security headers like X-Frame-Options, X-XSS-Protection, and X-Content-Type-Options are set, critical TLS protocols and strong cipher suites are missing. No OCSP stapling or session resumption mechanisms are enabled, and HSTS is not active despite the header being present in HTTP responses. These gaps expose the site to man-in-the-middle attacks and reduce user trust. No explicit security or incident response policies are found on the site. Immediate remediation is required to install a valid SSL certificate, enable HTTPS, and configure modern TLS settings to align with best practices and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Install and maintain a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Enable modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 or TLS 1.3) and configure strong cipher suites.
  3. Activate HSTS with includeSubDomains and preload options to enforce HTTPS usage.
  4. Implement OCSP stapling to improve certificate revocation checking performance and security.
  5. Review and enhance security headers and cookie attributes to further protect against common web attacks.
  6. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  7. Regularly audit third-party scripts and marketing tools for security and privacy compliance.
  8. Maintain and update privacy and cookie consent mechanisms to ensure ongoing GDPR compliance.
  9. Enhance website performance metrics to improve load times and user experience.
  10. Continue leveraging structured data and SEO best practices to maintain strong search visibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a Sitecore CMS platform hosted on Microsoft Azure, using the Foundation CSS/JS framework for responsive design. It integrates multiple third-party services including Cludo for search, Visual Website Optimizer for A/B testing, and Google Tag Manager for analytics. The site uses lazy loading for images and includes structured data in JSON-LD format for SEO enhancement. However, performance data is missing or zero, indicating potential measurement gaps or slow loading. Accessibility and SEO optimizations are good, with proper meta tags, alt attributes, and ARIA roles. The absence of HTTPS and modern TLS protocols is a critical technical deficiency. The site is mobile optimized and provides a rich user experience with clear navigation and comprehensive content. Technical debt appears low but security technical debt is high due to missing SSL and TLS configurations.
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.
