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

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

  2. 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

  • 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

Qualcomm maintains a strong market position as a technology innovator in wireless communications and semiconductor products. Its business model includes technology licensing, product development, and sales operations. The UK offices contribute to R&D and sales, supporting global operations. The company has a robust partnership ecosystem including Qualcomm Ventures and aptX. The website content and structure support business credibility and customer engagement, with clear navigation and social media integration. The presence of official statements and reports indicates a commitment to corporate responsibility and compliance.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and cookie consent mechanisms aligned with GDPR. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. However, the absence of a dedicated security policy page, vulnerability disclosure program, or incident response contact information suggests areas for improvement. The use of Adobe Launch and Cloudflare enhances security and monitoring capabilities. Overall, the security maturity is high but could benefit from enhanced transparency and formalized security communication.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response information to improve transparency.
  2. Implement a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher standards and improve user experience for all users.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Continue monitoring and optimizing website performance and privacy compliance to maintain trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern tech stack including React and Adobe Experience Manager, supported by Cloudflare CDN and Adobe Launch for tag management. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and SEO practices. Accessibility is basic but present. The site uses multiple tracking and marketing tools such as OneTrust for cookie consent and Autopilot SDK for marketing automation. The technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable online presence, though opportunities exist for further optimization and enhanced accessibility compliance.
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.
