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

Ready (formerly Argent) is a medium-sized fintech company specializing in crypto financial services, offering an onchain alternative to traditional banking through its Ready app, wallet, and card products. The company targets crypto users seeking self-custody solutions and high-yield rewards, positioning itself as a trusted player backed by prominent investors such as Paradigm and Index Ventures. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with comprehensive content and clear navigation. Technically, the website leverages modern web technologies including Webflow CMS, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and embedded Vimeo videos. It is well-optimized for mobile devices and demonstrates good performance and accessibility standards. Security best practices are observed with HTTPS enforcement, promotion of 2FA and Ledger integration, and fraud protection features, although some security headers and formal vulnerability disclosure policies are not explicitly published. The security posture is strong with no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. Privacy compliance is adequate with a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service, but lacks a cookie consent mechanism which may be a compliance gap. WHOIS data is privacy protected, which is common in the crypto industry, and does not raise immediate trust concerns given the company's transparency and trust signals. Overall, Ready presents a secure, professional, and user-friendly platform with strong business credibility. Strategic recommendations include enhancing privacy compliance with cookie consent, publishing security policies and incident response information, and providing direct security contact channels to further strengthen trust and compliance.

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

5 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 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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  3. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

Ready operates in the competitive crypto finance sector, offering products that combine banking alternatives with crypto investing and rewards. Its business model includes mobile app services, browser extension wallets, and a cashback card, targeting both general crypto users and crypto natives. The company benefits from strong venture capital backing and partnerships with major exchanges, enhancing its market position. Growth indicators include 2 million downloads of its wallet and active promotion of new features like BTCFi rewards. The ecosystem includes developer documentation and support channels, indicating a focus on developer engagement and platform extensibility. The absence of direct contact emails or phone numbers suggests a digital-first customer engagement approach.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and emphasis on self-custody and user control of assets. Security features such as 2FA and Ledger hardware wallet support are promoted. Fraud detection alerts are part of the service offering, enhancing user protection. However, the lack of explicit security headers in the HTML and absence of a published vulnerability disclosure program or incident response policy are areas for improvement. No sensitive data leakage or vulnerable libraries were detected. GDPR compliance is indicated by a comprehensive privacy policy, but cookie consent mechanisms are missing, which could be a compliance risk. Overall, the security culture appears strong but could benefit from more transparency and formalized policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and display a cookie consent banner to ensure GDPR and privacy compliance.
  2. Publish a formal vulnerability disclosure policy and security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Add explicit security headers such as X-Frame-Options and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance browser security.
  4. Provide clear security incident response information and dedicated contact channels for security issues.
  5. Maintain transparency on data retention policies and update privacy documentation accordingly.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Webflow CMS, utilizing modern JavaScript libraries like jQuery and integrates third-party services such as Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Twitter Ads, and Vimeo for video content. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and good accessibility features. Performance is fast with efficient use of CDN-hosted assets. The technical implementation follows best practices for SEO and user experience. However, some security headers are not explicitly set, and no formal vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are present. The technical stack is modern and well-maintained, supporting a professional and scalable online presence.
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.
