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

7 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

  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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

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

So Watt positions itself as a key player in the solar energy market in the Antilles-Guyane region, leveraging its affiliation with the established Athéna group. Its business model includes multiple revenue streams such as roof leasing, electricity resale, and self-consumption solutions, targeting professional customers seeking sustainable energy solutions. The company emphasizes quality and environmental responsibility, supported by certifications and local expertise. The partnership with Sybaxis.com for website development indicates a professional digital presence. Growth potential is supported by clear service segmentation and regional focus.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and Google reCAPTCHA to protect against spam and ensure secure communications. Cookie consent is managed via CookieYes, indicating GDPR awareness. However, the absence of several recommended security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement. No incident response or security policy information is published, which could be a gap in transparency and readiness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. Overall, the security posture is moderate but can be strengthened to meet higher compliance and protection standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Referrer-Policy.
  2. Publish a formal security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Regularly update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance monitoring and logging to detect and respond to security incidents promptly.
  5. Consider conducting periodic security audits and penetration testing to identify and remediate risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 6.8.3 with Elementor 3.32.3 and the The7 theme, hosted by OVH, a reputable provider. The tech stack includes jQuery and Google reCAPTCHA for spam protection. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and good accessibility features. Performance is moderate, with lazy loading and optimized images. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Cookie consent is managed by CookieYes, ensuring compliance with privacy regulations. The technical infrastructure is modern and well-maintained, though security header implementation could be improved.
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.
