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

AlgoTrading.exchange is a specialized website offering algorithmic and high-frequency trading solutions focused on the stock market. The company provides personalized trading bots and integrates with the Takion API to enable automated trading strategies. The website targets professional traders and algorithmic trading enthusiasts seeking advanced automation tools. The business appears to be a small technology-driven firm founded in 2021, with a niche market position leveraging the Takion platform. Technically, the website is built with standard HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, hosted behind Cloudflare DNS services. The site demonstrates good design quality, mobile responsiveness, and clear navigation, though it lacks advanced SEO and accessibility features. No CMS or complex frameworks are detected. The site does not employ tracking or advertising technologies, indicating a focus on content and direct user engagement. From a security perspective, the domain is registered with a reputable registrar and has a clientTransferProhibited status, which is positive. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, and no security headers are detected in the HTML content, representing areas for improvement. The site lacks privacy, cookie, and terms of service policies, which are critical for compliance with GDPR and other regulations. Contact information is limited to a web form without explicit emails or phone numbers. Overall, the website is professionally presented and trustworthy for its niche but requires enhancements in privacy compliance and security best practices to improve its risk posture and regulatory adherence.

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. 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"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

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

    • High

      Missing Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

      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

The company operates in the finance and technology sectors, focusing on algorithmic trading solutions using the Takion API. Its business model centers on providing automated trading bots and API extensions to traders. The market positioning is niche, targeting algorithmic traders who require customized and automated trading strategies. The partnership with IT Adviser indicates collaboration with technology advisory services. The absence of extensive marketing or tracking tools suggests a direct sales or service delivery approach. Growth potential depends on expanding service offerings and improving compliance and security to build trust with institutional clients.

Security posture

The current security maturity level is moderate. The domain registration is transparent and consistent with the business age. However, the lack of DNSSEC and security headers reduces the overall security posture. The absence of privacy and cookie policies indicates compliance gaps with GDPR and related regulations. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, limiting readiness for security events. The site uses HTTPS (implied by Cloudflare DNS and domain status), but SSL configuration details are unknown. Security best practices such as locking domain transfers are in place. Recommendations include enabling DNSSEC, adding security headers, publishing privacy and cookie policies, and establishing incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement standard security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to comply with GDPR and improve user trust.
  4. Add explicit contact information including security and abuse contacts for incident response readiness.
  5. Conduct regular security audits and update the Takion API integration to ensure secure trading operations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a simple and clean technical infrastructure based on HTML, CSS, and JavaScript without heavy frameworks or CMS. Hosting is behind Cloudflare DNS, which provides some resilience and performance benefits. The site is mobile optimized and has good navigation clarity. However, SEO optimization is basic, and accessibility features are minimal. No analytics or tracking scripts are detected, which reduces privacy concerns but also limits marketing insights. The lack of security headers and DNSSEC are technical risks that should be addressed. Overall, the technical implementation is solid for a small business but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security controls.
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.
