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

Scomedica is a Moroccan company specializing in the sale and servicing of scientific and laboratory equipment, with over 30 years of experience since 1994. The company targets businesses in pharmaceutical, education, agro-food, petrochemical, environmental, and other industrial sectors. Their offerings include sales, after-sales service, specialized training, maintenance, and technical support. The website is professionally designed using WordPress with WooCommerce and Elementor, reflecting a medium-sized business with a solid market presence in Morocco. Technically, the site uses modern technologies and is hosted under a Moroccan registrar, consistent with its business claims.

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

10 findings 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

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  2. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  3. 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
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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';…

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 · found on this site
  • 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

Scomedica holds a stable market position in Morocco as a provider of scientific instrumentation and related services. Their business model is B2B, focusing on tailored solutions for various industrial sectors. The company leverages partnerships with recognized brands and maintains a multilingual website to cater to local and international clients. Revenue streams likely include equipment sales, service contracts, and training programs. The presence of a LinkedIn profile indicates engagement with professional networks. Growth indicators include a broad product catalog and service offerings. Strategic observations suggest opportunities to enhance compliance and security transparency to strengthen customer trust.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and no visible sensitive data leaks. However, it lacks comprehensive security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, which could mitigate certain attack vectors. There is no published security policy, incident response plan, or vulnerability disclosure mechanism, which are important for compliance and trust. The absence of privacy and cookie policies also indicates compliance gaps with GDPR and related regulations. The site uses up-to-date CMS and plugins, reducing risks from known vulnerabilities. Overall, the security posture is functional but could be improved with better transparency and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with user consent mechanisms.
  2. Add a security.txt file and clearly communicate vulnerability disclosure and incident response contacts.
  3. Configure and enforce security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Regularly audit and update all CMS components and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance transparency by providing contact details for data protection officer or security team.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress platform using WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality and Elementor for page building. It uses jQuery and other standard libraries. Hosting is managed under a Moroccan registrar with nameservers indicating a hosting provider (heberjahiz.com). Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and SEO practices. Accessibility features are basic and could be enhanced. The site includes multilingual support via TranslatePress. There is no evidence of outdated or vulnerable libraries. Technical risks are low but could be further reduced by improving security headers and compliance features.
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.
