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

BitDegree, UAB operates a gamified Learn & Earn platform focused on cryptocurrency and Web3 education. The platform enables users to complete missions, earn Bits points, and redeem crypto rewards including tokens, NFTs, and tangible prizes. BitDegree has established itself as a notable player in the crypto education niche, leveraging partnerships with major industry brands such as Binance, Ledger, and Kraken. The website is well-designed, mobile-optimized, and rich in educational content, targeting crypto enthusiasts and learners seeking interactive ways to gain knowledge and rewards. Technically, the site uses modern JavaScript frameworks (Vue.js), integrates Google Tag Manager for analytics, and employs secure HTTPS connections with appropriate security headers. The platform supports community engagement through guilds and referral programs, enhancing user retention and growth. However, the WHOIS data is unavailable due to privacy protection, which is common in crypto-related domains but slightly reduces transparency. Security posture is strong with HTTPS, CSP, and secure form handling, though no explicit security policy or incident response information is published. Privacy and cookie policies are present and indicate GDPR compliance. Overall, BitDegree demonstrates a mature digital infrastructure and a trustworthy business model with room for improvement in security transparency. The risk assessment is moderate-low with no critical vulnerabilities detected. Strategic recommendations include publishing a dedicated security policy, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure information to enhance 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

3 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"

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

BitDegree targets the growing market of crypto learners and Web3 enthusiasts by offering a unique play-to-earn educational model. Its competitive advantage lies in gamification, crypto rewards, and strong partnerships with leading crypto projects. Revenue streams likely include sponsored missions, affiliate partnerships, and possibly premium services. The platform fosters community building via guilds and referral incentives, supporting organic growth. The company is medium-sized, founded in 2017, and based in Lithuania. Its ecosystem includes multiple social channels and a mobile app, indicating a comprehensive approach to user engagement and market penetration.

Security posture

The website exhibits a good security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and multiple security headers implemented. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the analyzed content. However, the absence of a public security policy, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms represents a compliance gap. GDPR compliance is indicated through privacy and cookie policies. The platform uses CSRF tokens in forms, enhancing input security. Overall, the security posture is solid but could benefit from enhanced transparency and formalized security documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page detailing security practices and controls.
  2. Establish and publicize an incident response contact email or form for security issues.
  3. Implement and advertise a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance privacy compliance disclosures with explicit data retention and user rights information.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern JavaScript framework (Vue.js) with modular script loading and optimized asset delivery. It uses Google Tag Manager for analytics and tracking, and Font Awesome for icons. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility considerations. Performance is moderate, with preloading of key assets and lazy loading of images. No CMS was detected, suggesting a custom or headless architecture. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. The technical infrastructure supports scalability and user engagement but could improve by adding more detailed performance metrics and accessibility audits.
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.
