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

12 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.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

  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 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

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

SOMA maintains a strong market position in the urban cleaning and environmental equipment sector in Portugal. Their competitive advantages include certified quality management, innovative technological solutions, and a broad service network including authorized technical assistance points and partnerships. The business model focuses on B2B sales, technical support, and component supply. The company demonstrates growth through continuous innovation and customer satisfaction. Their partnership ecosystem includes authorized service providers across Portugal. The website content and certifications reinforce their credibility and market presence.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with good SSL configuration and does not expose sensitive data. Certifications such as ISO 9001:2015 and Common Criteria indicate a mature security culture. However, the absence of explicit security headers and a vulnerability disclosure policy suggests room for improvement. No incident response contact or security policy page is found. The site uses modern CMS and scripts but lacks a cookie consent mechanism, which is a GDPR compliance gap. Overall, the security posture is solid but could be enhanced with additional best practices and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a visible cookie consent banner to ensure GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to enhance security.
  3. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve transparency and incident response readiness.
  4. Include explicit security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet compliance standards and improve user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Joomla CMS with Bootstrap framework and uses modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Owl Carousel. It integrates marketing and analytics tools from HubSpot and AcyMailing for newsletter management. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and good navigation clarity. Performance is moderate, with potential for optimization. The technical stack is stable and well-maintained, but the absence of some security headers and cookie consent mechanisms indicates technical debt in compliance and security best practices. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified from the content.
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.
