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

Somfy Czech Republic operates as a prominent provider of home automation and smart home systems, specializing in motorized solutions for gates, garage doors, blinds, pergolas, and related smart devices. The company is part of the larger Somfy Group, established in 1969, and targets consumers in the Czech Republic seeking advanced home comfort and automation solutions. The website reflects a mature digital presence with comprehensive product information, support services, and multimedia content to engage customers. Technically, the website employs a custom CMS platform with modern JavaScript libraries including jQuery and TagCommander for marketing and analytics. The site is well-structured with JSON-LD schema data, SEO-optimized metadata, and responsive design elements, ensuring good user experience across devices. Hosting appears to leverage Akamai CDN services, contributing to moderate performance. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and includes some security headers, though it lacks explicit advanced headers like CSP or security.txt for vulnerability disclosure. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. Privacy compliance is supported by clear privacy and cookie policies, though cookie consent mechanisms could be enhanced. Contact and support channels are available but no dedicated security incident response or data protection officer information was found. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and well-aligned with business goals. The absence of WHOIS data reduces domain registration transparency but does not significantly detract from the site's legitimacy given the strong brand presence and consistent content. Strategic improvements in security headers and transparency would further strengthen the security posture.

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

6 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

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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.

    • 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

  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 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 Czech Republic holds a strong market position as a leading home automation provider in the region, leveraging the global Somfy Group brand. Its business model focuses on B2C sales of motorized home comfort products and smart home systems, supported by a network of certified partners and extensive customer support. The company targets homeowners and installers seeking reliable, innovative automation solutions. The website's multilingual and regional links indicate a broad international footprint. Revenue streams likely include product sales, installation services, and after-sales support. The partnership ecosystem includes Somfy PRO and Somfy Connect platforms, enhancing market reach and integration capabilities. Growth indicators include active content marketing via blogs and videos, and a comprehensive product catalog. Strategic observations suggest continued investment in digital engagement and customer assistance to maintain competitive advantage.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level with enforced HTTPS and some security headers present. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive information were identified in the HTML content. However, the absence of advanced security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), X-Frame-Options, and security.txt files indicates room for improvement in defense-in-depth strategies. Privacy policies are comprehensive and GDPR compliant, but cookie consent mechanisms lack explicit user interaction. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure information are not publicly available, which may limit transparency and responsiveness to security issues. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a commercial website but would benefit from enhanced security controls and public security governance documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a Content Security Policy (CSP) header to mitigate cross-site scripting and related attacks.
  2. Publish a security.txt file to provide clear vulnerability disclosure and incident response contacts.
  3. Enhance cookie consent mechanisms to obtain explicit user consent in compliance with GDPR.
  4. Add additional security headers such as X-Frame-Options and X-Content-Type-Options for improved protection.
  5. Increase transparency by publishing security policies and appointing a Data Protection Officer contact.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a custom CMS platform (NetVertis_V6) with a modern JavaScript stack including jQuery and TagCommander for analytics and marketing. It uses JSON-LD structured data for SEO and rich snippets, and embeds YouTube videos for user engagement. Hosting leverages Akamai CDN for content delivery, contributing to moderate performance. The site is mobile responsive with good navigation clarity and accessibility features, though accessibility could be further improved. SEO optimization is strong with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Technical debt appears low, but the absence of some security headers and explicit performance optimization scripts suggests opportunities for modernization and enhanced security hardening.
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.
