Security score

49/100

Risk levelHigh

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

bloXroute is a technology company specializing in blockchain network acceleration services, including faster transaction propagation, block propagation, and mempool services. The company positions itself as a leading provider in blockchain distribution acceleration, targeting blockchain developers, miners, validators, and pools. The website is built on WordPress using Elementor and integrates marketing and analytics tools such as HubSpot and Google Tag Manager. The technical infrastructure is modern and moderately optimized for performance and mobile use. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS and reCAPTCHA but lacks advanced security headers and DNSSEC. Privacy compliance is weak due to absence of privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy but could improve in privacy and security transparency.

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. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: PostgreSQL

      Port 5432 (PostgreSQL) is publicly accessible - PostgreSQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to PostgreSQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  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

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 · found on this site
  • 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 blockchain technology sector with a focus on network performance enhancement. Its business model revolves around providing blockchain infrastructure services that accelerate transaction and block propagation. The target market includes blockchain pools, validators, and developers seeking performance advantages. The domain age and registration details support a legitimate and established business presence. The website's integration with HubSpot suggests active marketing and customer engagement strategies. No explicit partnerships or subsidiaries were identified from the content. The company appears to maintain a consistent brand and professional online presence.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and uses Google reCAPTCHA to protect forms, indicating basic security hygiene. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options represents missed opportunities to harden security. No incident response or security policy information is published, which could hinder trust and preparedness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. Privacy compliance is lacking, with no visible privacy or cookie policies, which is a compliance risk especially under GDPR. Overall, the security posture is moderate but requires enhancements in policy transparency and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  3. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance browser security.
  4. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerabilities or privacy risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress with the Elementor page builder, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries and integrations such as Google Tag Manager and HubSpot for analytics and marketing. The site uses HTTPS with a good SSL configuration. Performance is moderate with some optimization for mobile devices. The site lacks DNSSEC and security headers, which are technical risks. The HTML and CSS appear valid and SEO metadata is well implemented, including Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data. The site uses reCAPTCHA to protect forms, indicating attention to bot mitigation. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and privacy compliance features.
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.
