60/100

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

SABIC is a large multinational petrochemical company headquartered in Saudi Arabia, specializing in manufacturing and supplying polymers, chemicals, specialties, and agri-nutrients. The website reflects a mature enterprise with a comprehensive digital presence targeting industrial customers, investors, and job seekers. The content is professionally presented with clear navigation and consistent branding. Technically, the site uses ASP.NET technology with modern JavaScript libraries and Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing. However, the SSL/TLS configuration is critically flawed with no valid certificate and no TLS protocols enabled, severely impacting security posture. Privacy compliance is strong with clear policies and cookie consent mechanisms. Overall, the site is trustworthy and professional but requires urgent remediation of HTTPS and SSL issues to ensure secure user interactions.

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.

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

SABIC holds a strong market position in the energy and petrochemical sector, supported by a broad portfolio of products and services including polymers, specialties, chemicals, and agri-nutrients. The company targets industrial clients and investors globally, leveraging digital platforms such as eBusiness and supplier portals. The website content emphasizes sustainability, innovation, and corporate governance, indicating strategic focus areas. The domain registration and WHOIS data align with the company's identity and history, reinforcing legitimacy. The use of multiple advertising and analytics services suggests active marketing and user engagement strategies.

Security posture

The website implements several security headers such as X-Frame-Options, Content-Security-Policy, and Permissions-Policy, indicating awareness of security best practices. Cookies are set with HttpOnly and Secure flags. However, the absence of a valid SSL certificate and disabled TLS protocols represent critical vulnerabilities that expose users to potential interception and downgrade attacks. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is publicly available, and no security.txt file is found. The site should prioritize fixing SSL/TLS issues and consider publishing security contact information to improve transparency and incident handling readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Immediately obtain and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS and secure communications.
  2. Enable modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 or TLS 1.3) and disable deprecated protocols to enhance encryption strength.
  3. Activate and configure HSTS with includeSubDomains and preload options to enforce HTTPS usage.
  4. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy and security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting and incident response.
  5. Review and audit third-party domains used for advertising and tracking to remove or replace suspicious domains.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on ASP.NET with JavaScript libraries including jQuery and Slick Carousel for UI components. Google Tag Manager is used for analytics and marketing tags. The site is mobile optimized with responsive images and viewport settings. Performance data is not available, but the presence of multiple external scripts and tracking pixels may impact load times. Accessibility features are basic but present. The CMS appears custom or proprietary. Hosting is on a dedicated IP with no DNSSEC enabled. DNS records include multiple authoritative name servers and a valid MX record for Outlook mail protection. The SSL/TLS configuration is the primary technical risk, requiring urgent remediation.
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.
