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

Somfy is a well-established company specializing in motorized shading solutions and smart home automation products. The website www.somfy.at serves the Austrian market with a comprehensive product catalog, e-commerce integration, and extensive customer support resources. The company targets private customers, professional partners, and technical planners, positioning itself as a leader in smart home technology and automation. The site is professionally designed, mobile-optimized, and rich in content, reflecting a mature digital presence. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including responsive images, SVG icons, JSON-LD structured data, and uses Akamai CDN for performance optimization. The platform appears custom-built with a focus on user experience and SEO best practices. Security measures such as HTTPS, security headers, and privacy compliance mechanisms are well implemented, although explicit security policy and incident response pages are not found. The security posture is strong with no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. Privacy compliance is robust, with clear privacy and cookie policies and consent mechanisms aligned with GDPR. The absence of WHOIS data is noted but likely due to privacy protection, which is justified for a commercial brand site. Trust indicators such as Trusted Shops certification and active social media presence further enhance credibility. Overall, the website presents a low risk profile with strong business credibility and technical maturity. Recommendations include publishing explicit security policies and vulnerability disclosure information to further enhance transparency and trust.

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

1 finding 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

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

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

Somfy operates in the retail and technology sectors, focusing on smart home and motorized shading products. The business model combines direct-to-consumer sales via an online shop with support for professional partners and installers. The company leverages a broad partnership ecosystem and maintains a strong brand presence across multiple countries. Revenue streams likely include product sales, accessories, and service offerings. The website content and structure indicate a focus on customer education, product promotion, and after-sales support, which supports customer retention and brand loyalty. Somfy's market position is that of an established leader with a large product portfolio and extensive geographic reach.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and no detected vulnerabilities in the HTML content. Privacy policies and cookie consent mechanisms are implemented in compliance with GDPR. However, the absence of a dedicated security policy or incident response contact information represents a gap in transparency. No security.txt or vulnerability disclosure program is evident. The site uses third-party services for performance monitoring and user analytics, which appear to be integrated securely. Overall, the security maturity is high but could be improved by adding explicit security governance documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Implement a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  3. Provide clear incident response contact channels, such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking services to ensure ongoing compliance and security.
  5. Enhance transparency by publishing data retention policies and detailed privacy compliance statements.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern and performant technology stack including responsive design, SVG graphics, JSON-LD for structured data, and CDN delivery via Akamai. The platform appears custom-developed with integration of JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and performance monitoring tools like Boomerang. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with good SEO practices evident in meta tags and structured data. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a proprietary or heavily customized solution. Hosting and delivery are robust, supporting fast load times and a smooth user experience. Opportunities exist to further modernize by adopting newer JavaScript frameworks and enhancing accessibility 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.
