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

3 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 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
  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

  3. 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.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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

Saipem operates in the energy and infrastructure sectors, providing engineering and drilling services globally. The company maintains a comprehensive investor relations section, governance disclosures, and sustainability initiatives, indicating transparency and corporate responsibility. Their business model focuses on large-scale project execution and innovation in energy transition solutions. The presence of ISO certifications and detailed governance information enhances credibility. The company leverages partnerships and maintains a strong digital presence through social media and detailed content offerings. Growth indicators include merger plans and diversified project portfolios in offshore, onshore, and renewable energy sectors.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and multiple security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. Forms appear secured with standard protections. However, the lack of a public vulnerability disclosure policy and incident response contact information suggests room for improvement in transparency and readiness. The company holds ISO 27001 certification, indicating adherence to recognized security standards. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be enhanced by publishing clear incident response and vulnerability disclosure channels.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a formal vulnerability disclosure policy and security.txt file to improve transparency and community engagement.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information on the website to facilitate reporting and handling of security incidents.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance monitoring and alerting mechanisms for suspicious activities to improve proactive security posture.
  5. Maintain and communicate ongoing compliance with evolving data protection regulations to strengthen trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal CMS, utilizing Bootstrap for responsive design and Font Awesome for icons. It integrates Piwik PRO for analytics and Boomerang for performance monitoring, indicating a focus on user experience and data-driven improvements. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with good SEO practices including meta tags and structured navigation. Performance is moderate, with room for optimization in loading speed. The technical stack is modern and well-maintained, supporting a large enterprise digital presence. Hosting details are not explicitly identified, but the use of CDN and analytics providers suggests a robust infrastructure.
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.
