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

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

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 is positioned as a major player in the European cryptocurrency exchange market, leveraging its global brand and regulatory compliance to attract users. Its business model revolves around providing a comprehensive suite of crypto financial services including spot and derivatives trading, staking, and copy trading. Revenue streams likely include trading fees, staking yields, and premium services such as VIP programs. The company maintains a broad partnership ecosystem with sister and subsidiary domains targeting different regions, enhancing its market reach. Growth indicators include multilingual support, localized payment methods like iDEAL and SEPA, and active marketing campaigns. Strategic observations suggest a focus on regulatory compliance and user trust as key competitive advantages.

Security posture

The security posture of Bybit EU is robust, with HTTPS enforced site-wide and multiple security headers implemented to protect against common web vulnerabilities. The platform employs triple-layer asset protection with cold wallet storage and real-time behavioral monitoring to mitigate fraud and unauthorized access. Enhanced authentication measures are triggered upon detection of suspicious withdrawal activities. Despite these strengths, the absence of publicly available incident response and vulnerability disclosure policies limits transparency and may hinder coordinated security improvements. Data protection practices align with GDPR requirements, but more explicit communication on data retention and DPO contact would strengthen compliance. Overall, the security maturity level is high, supporting the platform's role as a trusted financial service provider.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated incident response and vulnerability disclosure policy to improve transparency and user trust.
  2. Implement and publicize a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability reporting.
  3. Enhance website accessibility features to meet broader compliance standards and improve user experience.
  4. Provide clearer information on data retention policies and appoint a visible Data Protection Officer contact.
  5. Maintain regular security audits and update third-party libraries to mitigate emerging vulnerabilities.

Notes

The website leverages a modern technology stack including React and Next.js, enabling server-side rendering and efficient client-side interactivity. CSS Modules and Webpack are used for styling and bundling, contributing to maintainable and scalable code. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization, though opportunities exist to improve accessibility and SEO further. Hosting details are not explicitly identified, but the presence of AWS-related domains suggests cloud hosting infrastructure. The site integrates analytics and marketing tools such as Google Analytics and Tag Manager, balanced with privacy compliance mechanisms. Technical risks are minimal, with no exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries detected in the provided content.
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.
