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

Socomec is an established enterprise specializing in expert solutions for low voltage electrical networks, focusing on power control, safety, critical power, energy efficiency, and solar power. The company operates internationally with dedicated regional websites for multiple countries, indicating a broad market presence and a B2B business model targeting industrial and commercial electrical network operators and integrators. The website serves primarily as a country selector landing page directing users to localized content. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including React and Piwik PRO analytics, with a progressive web app manifest and SVG icons. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization and a professional design, though accessibility and SEO could be improved. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS implied and cookie consent mechanisms implemented, but lacks visible security headers and explicit security policies. The WHOIS data is unavailable or protected, which is common for enterprise domains but reduces transparency. No contact emails or phone numbers are directly available on this landing page, though social media presence on LinkedIn and YouTube supports legitimacy. Privacy and cookie policies are comprehensive and GDPR compliant. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy with moderate technical and security maturity. Strategic improvements in security headers, incident response transparency, and accessibility would enhance the security posture and compliance. The absence of WHOIS data is a minor concern but does not outweigh the strong business and technical indicators.

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.

    • 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

  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.

    • 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

Socomec positions itself as a key player in the energy sector, providing specialized electrical network solutions. Its business model is focused on B2B industrial clients, with a global footprint evidenced by multiple country-specific domains. The company leverages digital channels including social media and regional websites to reach diverse markets. The lack of direct contact information on the landing page suggests a structured approach to customer engagement via localized sites. The use of Piwik PRO analytics indicates a focus on data-driven marketing and user behavior analysis. The company appears to maintain a consistent brand and professional online presence, supporting its market credibility and growth potential.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security posture with HTTPS usage and a cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR requirements. However, the absence of visible security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options indicates room for improvement. No explicit security policies or incident response contacts are published, which could hinder rapid response to security incidents. The WHOIS data is not publicly available, which may be due to privacy protection services, a common practice but one that reduces transparency. No vulnerabilities or malware indicators were detected in the content. Overall, the security maturity is adequate for a corporate informational site but should be enhanced for improved trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options.
  2. Provide explicit security and incident response policies with dedicated contact channels.
  3. Enhance website accessibility to meet WCAG standards for broader user inclusivity.
  4. Improve SEO by adding structured data and richer meta tags for better search engine visibility.
  5. Increase transparency by providing verified WHOIS data or justifying privacy protection usage.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using React, indicating a modern JavaScript framework for dynamic and responsive user interfaces. It integrates Piwik PRO for analytics, showing a preference for privacy-focused tracking solutions. The presence of a manifest file suggests progressive web app capabilities. Performance is moderate with hashed static assets for caching. Mobile optimization is good, but accessibility features are basic and could be improved. No CMS or hosting provider details are evident from the HTML content. The technical stack is contemporary but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and SEO optimizations to reduce technical debt and improve operational resilience.
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.
