Risk levelLow

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

Somfy is a well-established company specializing in smart home automation products, including blinds, shutters, gates, cameras, and lighting solutions. The website targets consumers in the Gulf countries, offering a comprehensive product catalog and support resources. The brand is globally recognized and supported by a parent company, Somfy Group. The digital infrastructure is modern, leveraging JavaScript frameworks, performance monitoring, and social media integration, indicating a mature digital presence.

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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

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

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

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 technology and retail sectors, focusing on B2C smart home automation solutions. The company benefits from strong brand recognition and a broad product portfolio tailored to regional markets. Its business model revolves around direct sales and partnerships with installers and resellers. The website supports multiple languages and provides extensive customer support, indicating a customer-centric approach. Strategic partnerships and related domains reinforce its market position. The company shows signs of digital maturity with integrated marketing and analytics tools, supporting growth and customer engagement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms. However, it lacks advanced security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, which are recommended to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. The site uses third-party scripts for analytics and social media, which should be regularly audited. Incident response and security policy information are not publicly available, representing an area for improvement. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced with additional controls and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Conduct regular security audits of third-party scripts and dependencies to prevent vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet international standards and improve user experience.
  5. Maintain updated WHOIS information or provide verified registrant details to improve domain trustworthiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a custom CMS likely based on ColdFusion, with a modern front-end stack including JavaScript, jQuery, and SVG graphics. Performance monitoring is implemented via Boomerang, and marketing tools include TagCommander and Facebook SDK. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and preloaded fonts for performance. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). However, some accessibility features are basic and could be improved. Hosting details are not explicit, but the presence of multiple Somfy domains suggests a managed corporate hosting environment. Overall, the technical infrastructure is robust with opportunities for modernization and enhanced security.
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.
