Risk levelLow

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

Volvic is a well-established French brand specializing in natural mineral water and flavored beverages, operating under the parent company Danone. The website presents a professional and consistent brand image with comprehensive product information, environmental commitments, and visitor experience offerings. The technical infrastructure is modern, leveraging Adobe Experience Manager CMS and cloud hosting, with good performance and mobile optimization. Security posture is strong with HTTPS, security headers, and privacy compliance mechanisms in place, although explicit security policy and incident response information are absent. The domain WHOIS data is unavailable, limiting direct verification of domain registration legitimacy, but the website content and branding strongly indicate a legitimate enterprise. Overall, the site is trustworthy, user-friendly, and compliant with privacy regulations.

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.

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

Volvic holds a strong market position in the retail sector for bottled natural mineral water in France and Europe. Its business model focuses on product sales, brand partnerships (e.g., esports team Gentle Mates), and experiential marketing through source park visits. The company emphasizes sustainability and certifications such as B Corp. The website integrates marketing and analytics tools to support customer engagement and brand awareness. The parent company Danone provides additional credibility and resources. The target audience is broad, including general consumers seeking natural and flavored water products.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, multiple security headers, and a cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure program indicates room for improvement in transparency and readiness. The site does not expose any critical vulnerabilities or signs of compromise, supporting a high security score but recommending enhancements in security communication.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page detailing security practices and frameworks.
  2. Provide incident response contact information and establish a vulnerability disclosure program.
  3. Include Data Protection Officer contact details to enhance GDPR compliance transparency.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks.
  5. Enhance WHOIS domain registration transparency or provide official domain ownership verification.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Adobe Experience Manager CMS hosted on Adobe AEM Cloud, utilizing modern JavaScript and CSS technologies. Performance is moderate with asynchronous script loading and preloaded stylesheets. The site is mobile optimized and accessible with semantic HTML and ARIA roles. SEO is supported by meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data, although some JSON-LD fields are incomplete. The technical stack is robust but could benefit from further optimization and completeness in structured data. No technical debt or deprecated technologies were observed.
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.
