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

Dapp Works is a technology platform focused on providing a collection of decentralized applications (Dapps) and tools that allow users to access smart contracts and create Dapps without coding. The platform targets developers and users interested in blockchain and decentralized technologies, offering easy sharing capabilities without the need for deployment. The website is built using modern frontend technologies such as React, Next.js, and Chakra UI, and is hosted via Cloudflare, indicating a contemporary technical infrastructure. However, the site content is minimal and lacks comprehensive business and compliance information. Security posture is basic with HTTPS enabled but missing important security headers and DNSSEC. Privacy and cookie policies are absent, and no contact or incident response information is provided, which limits transparency and compliance. Overall, the site is functional but requires improvements in security, privacy compliance, and business credibility to enhance trust and user confidence.

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. 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

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

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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 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

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 technology sector, specifically focusing on decentralized applications and blockchain technology. It appears to be a small-sized startup founded in 2020, with no parent company or subsidiaries identified. The business model revolves around providing no-code tools and access to smart contracts, targeting developers and blockchain enthusiasts. There is no evidence of partnerships or affiliate programs. The platform's market position is not explicitly stated, and the website lacks detailed business information or trust indicators such as certifications or testimonials. Growth potential exists given the rising interest in blockchain, but the current digital presence is basic and could benefit from enhanced content and clearer business communication.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS, ensuring encrypted communications, and is hosted behind Cloudflare, which provides some level of protection and performance benefits. However, the absence of DNSSEC reduces DNS security, and no security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options were detected, which are important for mitigating common web attacks. There are no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data in the provided content, but the lack of privacy and cookie policies indicates compliance gaps, particularly with GDPR. Incident response and security policy information are missing, which could hinder timely handling of security events. Overall, the security maturity is basic and would benefit from implementing recommended security headers, DNSSEC, and publishing clear security and privacy policies.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement essential security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  4. Add clear contact information and incident response channels to improve transparency and trust.
  5. Enhance website content quality and SEO to improve user experience and business credibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern React and Next.js framework with Chakra UI for styling, indicating a contemporary and maintainable tech stack. Hosting is provided by Cloudflare, which offers CDN and security features. The site loads multiple Google Fonts and uses deferred JavaScript loading for performance. However, SEO optimization is basic with minimal meta tags and no Open Graph or structured data present. Accessibility features are minimal, and no analytics or tracking scripts were detected, suggesting limited user behavior insights. Performance is moderate with no explicit indicators of slow loading but could be improved with better optimization and SEO practices. The technical implementation is solid but could be enhanced with better compliance and security configurations.
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.
