Basic Attention Token · Technology · Iceland
Low risk. 2 critical or high findings in GDPR outside view.
Basic Attention Token (BAT) is a blockchain-based digital advertising token designed to tokenize user attention on the internet. It operates primarily through integration with the Brave browser, enabling users to earn BAT tokens by viewing privacy-respecting ads, supporting content creators, and providing advertisers with improved ad effectiveness while preserving user privacy. The website demonstrates a mature and well-established presence with a strong market position as one of the most widely adopted tokens in the crypto space, supported by tens of millions of users and nearly two million verified creators. The business model centers on a user-first attention economy, leveraging blockchain technology to disrupt traditional digital advertising paradigms. Technically, the website is built using the Hugo static site generator, served via Cloudflare DNS and CDN services, and employs Matomo for analytics, indicating a modern and privacy-conscious technology stack. The site is well-optimized for performance, mobile responsiveness, and SEO, with clear navigation and professional design. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced and domain transfer protections, though there is room for improvement in DNSSEC adoption and explicit security headers. Privacy compliance is supported by comprehensive privacy and terms of service policies, though a cookie consent mechanism is not evident. From a security perspective, the site shows no signs of vulnerabilities or malicious content. The use of privacy protection in WHOIS is justified and consistent with the business type. However, the absence of published security policies or incident response contacts suggests an opportunity to enhance transparency and readiness. Overall, the website is trustworthy, professional, and aligned with industry best practices, supporting a high level of confidence for users and partners.

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.
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.

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.
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.

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Automated reading of the public site. Ratings are indicative.
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.
