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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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 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

Crypto.com operates in the finance and technology sectors, focusing on cryptocurrency exchange and related financial services. Its business model revolves around providing a secure and user-friendly platform for buying, selling, and managing cryptocurrencies, targeting both individual investors and institutional clients. The company holds ISO 27001 certification, underscoring its commitment to information security. The platform's market position is strong, supported by a large user base and extensive service offerings including crypto credit and payment solutions. Partnerships and integrations with major social media and technology platforms enhance its ecosystem. The company’s digital presence is consistent and professional, reflecting a mature brand with a global footprint. Growth indicators include continuous technology upgrades and compliance with regional regulations such as GDPR.

Security posture

Crypto.com exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and domain registration safeguards that prevent unauthorized domain changes. The use of Cloudflare provides additional protection against DDoS attacks and other web threats. However, the absence of DNSSEC is a minor gap that could be addressed to improve DNS security. The website does not publicly disclose an incident response policy or security contact emails, which could be improved to enhance transparency and readiness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. Privacy policies and cookie consent mechanisms align with GDPR requirements, indicating good compliance practices. Overall, the platform maintains a secure environment suitable for handling sensitive financial transactions and user data.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to strengthen DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a security.txt file to provide clear vulnerability disclosure and incident response contacts.
  3. Add explicit incident response contact information on the website for transparency.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance user trust by providing more visible trust seals and certifications on the website.

The website is built using modern web technologies including React and Gatsby, ensuring a fast and responsive user experience. Hosting via Cloudflare provides CDN benefits and security protections. The site uses Google Fonts and integrates analytics and marketing tools such as Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel for user behavior tracking and marketing optimization.

Opportunities for improvement include enabling DNSSEC and publishing security-related metadata to further enhance security posture.
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.
