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's business model focuses on smart home automation products sold through direct online channels and a network of local dealers. Their competitive advantage lies in product integration, brand recognition, and comprehensive support services. Revenue streams include product sales, service packages, and partnerships. The target customers range from individual consumers seeking smart home convenience to professionals and installers requiring robust solutions. The company demonstrates growth through digital marketing, content engagement, and international presence. Partnerships with local dealers and integration with global platforms enhance their ecosystem. Strategic observations include the need to enhance transparency around security policies and incident response to further build trust.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, multiple security headers, and a consent management platform ensuring GDPR compliance. The use of SSO for user sessions and absence of exposed sensitive data indicate good security hygiene. However, the lack of a dedicated security policy page, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms suggests room for improvement in transparency and readiness. No vulnerabilities or suspicious patterns were detected in the publicly accessible content. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be enhanced by publishing explicit security governance documents and contact channels.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and user trust.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance data retention policy disclosures to align with GDPR best practices.
  5. Continue improving mobile optimization and accessibility to maintain excellent user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a proprietary CMS platform with a modern JavaScript tech stack including jQuery and various third-party integrations such as Google Analytics, Tag Manager, and Nosto for recommendations. Performance is moderate with good mobile responsiveness and accessibility features. SEO is well-implemented with structured data (JSON-LD), meta tags, and Open Graph tags. The site uses multiple marketing and consent management tools, indicating a mature digital marketing strategy. Technical risks are minimal, but reliance on multiple external scripts requires ongoing monitoring. Hosting details are not explicit, but security headers and SSL configuration are strong, supporting a secure and performant infrastructure.
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.
