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

Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) is a prominent NFT membership club operated by Yuga Labs, offering exclusive digital collectibles and community perks. The website serves as the official portal for BAYC and its related collections, providing members with login access and information about unique intellectual property rights and benefits. The brand holds a leading position in the NFT space with a large, engaged audience of crypto enthusiasts and digital art collectors. Technically, the website is built on a modern React and Next.js framework, hosted via Cloudflare with robust DNS and SSL configurations. It integrates multiple analytics and marketing tools such as Google Tag Manager and Plausible Analytics, ensuring good performance and mobile optimization. The site demonstrates excellent design quality, clear navigation, and consistent branding, reflecting a mature digital infrastructure. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and domain registration protections but lacks DNSSEC and explicit security headers. There is no visible incident response or vulnerability disclosure policy, and cookie consent mechanisms are absent despite tracking scripts. These gaps suggest room for improvement in compliance and security transparency. Overall, the website is trustworthy and professional, with strong business credibility and technical maturity. Strategic enhancements in privacy compliance, security policies, and DNS security would further strengthen its posture and user trust.

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 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 Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1
    • 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

BAYC operates as a high-profile NFT community and digital collectibles platform, leveraging blockchain technology to offer exclusive membership and IP rights. Its business model centers on digital asset ownership, community engagement, and merchandise sales via subsidiary domains. The company targets crypto-savvy collectors and investors, maintaining a strong ecosystem with official social media and community channels. The domain age and registration details align with the company's founding in 2021, supporting legitimacy. Partnerships and related domains indicate a well-structured brand architecture. Growth indicators include active community links and continuous content updates.

Security posture

The website exhibits a solid security foundation with HTTPS enforcement and domain locking statuses that prevent unauthorized changes. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers like Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No public incident response or security policies are visible, which may impact transparency and user confidence. Tracking scripts are present without a cookie consent banner, potentially affecting GDPR compliance. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from enhanced policies and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and display explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options.
  3. Publish a clear incident response policy and provide dedicated security contact channels.
  4. Add a cookie consent mechanism to comply with privacy regulations and inform users about tracking.
  5. Consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern React-based Next.js framework, ensuring server-side rendering and good SEO. Hosting is via Cloudflare, providing CDN and DNS services. The site loads quickly with optimized images and preloading strategies. Analytics and marketing integrations are well implemented but require privacy compliance improvements. No CMS detected, indicating a custom-built solution. Mobile optimization and accessibility are strong, with responsive design and semantic markup. Technical risks include missing DNSSEC and lack of visible security headers, which should be addressed to reduce attack surface.
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.
