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

Core.app is a technology platform developed by Ava Labs, focused on providing a comprehensive wallet and portfolio management solution for the Avalanche blockchain and other EVM-compatible networks. It offers native Bitcoin bridging and supports decentralized finance (DeFi) assets, targeting cryptocurrency users and DeFi investors. The platform positions itself as a leading service in the Avalanche ecosystem with no fees or intermediaries, emphasizing user control and multi-chain support. Technically, the website is built using modern frameworks such as React and Material UI, integrating blockchain-specific libraries and providers for Avalanche and Bitcoin. The infrastructure demonstrates good performance, mobile optimization, and SEO practices. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS, employs multiple security headers, and avoids exposing sensitive data, reflecting a mature security posture. However, it lacks explicit privacy, cookie, and terms of service policies, which impacts compliance and user trust. Overall, the domain registration aligns well with the business identity, and no blocking or WAF challenges were detected, allowing full content access and analysis.

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. 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.

    • Critical

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  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

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

The business operates in the blockchain technology and finance sectors, specifically focusing on decentralized finance and Avalanche blockchain users. Ava Labs, the parent company, is well-known in the blockchain space, lending credibility. The platform's business model revolves around providing free wallet and portfolio services with native bridging capabilities, likely monetizing through ecosystem partnerships or value-added services. The target audience includes crypto enthusiasts, DeFi investors, and Avalanche network participants. The presence of partner subnet networks like Hashfire, Gunzilla, and PLYR indicates a growing partnership ecosystem. The company maintains a medium-sized digital presence with consistent branding and professional content, though it could improve transparency by adding more explicit business and compliance information.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a strong security posture with HTTPS enforced and a comprehensive set of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, and X-Frame-Options. There is no evidence of exposed sensitive information or vulnerable libraries in the HTML content. The use of cryptographic libraries and hardware wallet integrations (Ledger) further enhance security. However, the absence of a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file and lack of incident response contact details represent gaps in security transparency and readiness. Privacy compliance is limited due to missing privacy and cookie policies, which could expose the business to regulatory risks. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be improved by formalizing disclosure and response processes.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to enhance GDPR and privacy compliance.
  2. Implement a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Provide clear incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet compliance standards and improve user experience.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party libraries and dependencies to mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern React-based tech stack with Material UI for styling and layout, ensuring a responsive and performant user experience. Integration with blockchain-specific libraries such as wagmi, elliptic, and providers for Avalanche and Bitcoin indicates a specialized infrastructure tailored for crypto users. The site loads quickly and is optimized for mobile devices. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. No CMS is detected, suggesting a custom-built solution. Hosting details are not explicit but the use of CDN and Google Fonts indicates a distributed content delivery approach. Technical debt appears low, but the absence of some compliance-related pages suggests areas for content expansion.
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.
