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

The website soliris.net serves as a dedicated patient information portal for SOLIRIS®, a prescription medication by Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. It provides comprehensive safety information, prescribing details, and patient support resources, targeting US patients and caregivers. The site emphasizes regulatory compliance, including REMS program participation and FDA-approved indications, positioning itself as a trusted source for medication-related information in the healthcare sector. Technically, the site is built on the Sitecore CMS platform, hosted on AWS, and uses modern web technologies such as jQuery and Google Tag Manager. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization and a professional design, though accessibility features are basic. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and domain registration protections, but could be improved by enabling DNSSEC and adding security headers. Privacy compliance is strong, with a clear cookie consent mechanism and links to comprehensive privacy and terms of use policies. However, no explicit security policy or incident response contacts are published. Overall, the site is professional, trustworthy, and well-aligned with its business purpose, with minor recommendations to enhance security and transparency.

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. 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. 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

Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. operates soliris.net as part of its pharmaceutical product ecosystem, focusing on rare and serious diseases treated by SOLIRIS®. The website supports patient education and regulatory compliance, reinforcing market leadership with over 15 years of product experience. The business model centers on pharmaceutical sales supported by patient and physician education, REMS program management, and patient support services like OneSource™. The company targets US patients and healthcare providers, leveraging partnerships with dedicated support and REMS program sites. The domain age and registration details align with the company's long-standing market presence. The site’s content and external links reflect a mature, regulated healthcare business with strong compliance and trust signals.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and domain registration protections such as clientDeleteProhibited status. The absence of DNSSEC is a minor gap. The site uses a cookie consent banner with granular controls, indicating privacy awareness. However, no explicit security policy or incident response contact information is published, which is a gap in transparency and readiness. No vulnerable libraries or exposed sensitive data were detected. The use of Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics is controlled but requires ongoing monitoring for privacy compliance. Security headers are not explicitly detected and should be implemented to enhance protection. Overall, the site is secure but could improve in policy transparency and technical security headers.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and cookies to ensure ongoing privacy compliance and minimize tracking risks.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher standards for users with disabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Sitecore CMS platform and hosted on AWS, leveraging modern web technologies including jQuery 3.5.1, Font Awesome 5.15.1, and Google Tag Manager. The site loads external resources from trusted CDNs and uses a cookie consent mechanism powered by Digital Control Room. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization. SEO is basic but includes proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Accessibility is basic and could be improved. The site uses HTTPS exclusively, but lacks some security headers. The domain is well-managed with registrar locks but lacks DNSSEC. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid and supports the business needs effectively, with room for security and accessibility enhancements.
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.
