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

9 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

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

Bybit EU GmbH is positioned as a leading licensed crypto exchange in Europe, leveraging its global brand and regulatory compliance to capture market share in the European Economic Area. Its business model focuses on providing a wide array of crypto financial products including spot and derivatives trading, staking, and NFTs, targeting retail and institutional traders. The platform's growth is supported by strategic partnerships, a strong community presence on social media, and continuous product innovation such as AI trading assistants and copy trading. Revenue streams likely include trading fees, staking yields, and premium services. The company demonstrates a strong commitment to compliance and user protection, which is critical in the evolving regulatory landscape. Its competitive advantage lies in regulatory licensing, technological sophistication, and a comprehensive product suite.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and multiple security headers implemented, including Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security. There is no evidence of exposed sensitive data or use of vulnerable libraries. The platform uses secure authentication and authorization mechanisms, and monitors user behavior for suspicious activity. Privacy policies and cookie consent mechanisms align with GDPR requirements. However, the absence of a publicly visible vulnerability disclosure program and incident response contact details indicates room for improvement in transparency and readiness. Overall, the security measures are robust and appropriate for a financial services platform, minimizing risks related to data breaches and fraud.

Recommendations

  1. Establish and publicize a formal vulnerability disclosure and bug bounty program to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  2. Enhance visibility of incident response contacts and procedures to improve transparency and user trust.
  3. Conduct regular third-party security audits and penetration testing to identify and remediate potential vulnerabilities.
  4. Maintain up-to-date software dependencies and monitor for emerging threats in the crypto exchange sector.
  5. Implement continuous user education on security best practices and phishing awareness to strengthen security culture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern technology stack featuring React 18.2.0 and Next.js, enabling server-side rendering and optimized performance. It uses advanced image formats (AVIF, WebP) for faster loading and better compression. The site integrates analytics and marketing tools such as Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, and Zendesk for customer support. The platform is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility considerations. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or headless architecture. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. Performance is fast with efficient resource loading and preloading strategies. Technical risks are minimal, but continuous monitoring and updates are recommended to mitigate potential technical debt or vulnerabilities.
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.
