Security score

75/100

Risk levelMedium

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

The website www.coingecko.com is currently inaccessible due to a Cloudflare Web Application Firewall (WAF) security challenge page, which includes a Turnstile captcha. This blocking prevents access to the actual website content, metadata, and business information, severely limiting the ability to perform a comprehensive analysis. The WHOIS lookup for the domain failed to return any registrant or registrar information, which is unusual for a well-known domain and may indicate privacy protection or registry issues. No privacy, cookie, or terms of service policies were detected in the provided content, nor were any contact details or business credentials. The technical infrastructure appears to rely on Cloudflare for security and hosting, but no further details on CMS, frameworks, or analytics could be extracted. Given the blocking and lack of WHOIS data, the overall trustworthiness and security posture cannot be fully assessed, and the site should be re-evaluated once accessible.

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

6 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 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 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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Cloudflare

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

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

Due to the Cloudflare WAF challenge page, no business intelligence data such as company name, market position, business model, or key services could be extracted. The domain www.coingecko.com is widely known in the cryptocurrency market data sector, but this analysis cannot confirm or deny any business details from the current data. No partnerships, subsidiaries, or related domains were identified. The absence of contact information and policies further limits business credibility assessment.

Security posture

The security posture assessment is constrained by the WAF blocking. The presence of Cloudflare Turnstile captcha indicates an active security mechanism to mitigate automated access and potential attacks. However, no security headers or SSL/TLS configuration details were available for review. The lack of visible forms or input fields beyond the captcha reduces immediate exposure to input-based vulnerabilities. The missing WHOIS data and lack of privacy policies represent compliance and transparency gaps. Overall, the security maturity cannot be fully determined but appears to rely heavily on Cloudflare's protection.

Recommendations

  1. Work with hosting and security providers to allow safe access for security and compliance audits by trusted parties.
  2. Ensure WHOIS data is properly published or privacy protection is justified and transparent to users.
  3. Publish comprehensive privacy, cookie, and terms of service policies accessible even under security challenges.
  4. Implement and verify security headers and SSL/TLS best practices to improve security posture.
  5. Provide clear contact and incident response information to enhance trust and compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The technical infrastructure is currently obscured by Cloudflare's security challenge page, limiting visibility into the website's technology stack, CMS, and hosting environment. Detected technologies include Cloudflare's Turnstile captcha service and JavaScript. No SEO metadata, structured data, or analytics scripts were accessible. Performance, accessibility, and mobile optimization cannot be evaluated. The site relies on Cloudflare for security and likely for CDN and hosting services. Once accessible, a detailed technical audit should be conducted to assess modernity, performance, and compliance.
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.
