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

4 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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: YouTube

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  2. 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 Portugal benefits from the global reputation of Somfy Group, leveraging a broad product portfolio in home automation and smart home sectors. The business model combines direct consumer sales with professional installation and support services, enhancing customer engagement and market reach. The company maintains a strong partnership ecosystem evident from multiple localized domains and related platforms. The website content and structure indicate a focus on quality, customer support, and brand consistency. Growth indicators include active content updates, video marketing, and comprehensive product categorization. The presence of a whistleblowing channel and sustainability information suggests corporate governance maturity.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security maturity level with enforced HTTPS, presence of key security headers, and a cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a publicly available security policy, incident response plan, or vulnerability disclosure program indicates room for improvement in transparency and readiness. The use of third-party scripts for analytics and performance monitoring is standard but requires ongoing vigilance to mitigate supply chain risks. Overall, the security posture is adequate for the business type but could be enhanced by publishing more explicit security governance documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response information on the website to improve transparency and user trust.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  3. Enhance website accessibility features to meet higher compliance standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  4. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize potential security and privacy risks.
  5. Consider providing public contact details for a Data Protection Officer or privacy contact to strengthen GDPR compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a custom or proprietary CMS platform (NetVertis_V6) with extensive use of JavaScript and jQuery for interactivity. It employs structured data (JSON-LD) for SEO and rich snippets, and integrates performance monitoring tools like Boomerang and TagCommander. Hosting appears to be via Akamai CDN, enhancing global delivery and security. The site is mobile responsive with preloaded fonts and optimized images. While performance is moderate, there is potential for improvement in loading speed and accessibility compliance. The technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable digital presence but would benefit from modernization in CMS and enhanced security documentation.
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.
