Deeper Network is a technology company specializing in decentralized VPN hardware and network security solutions. Their flagship offering is the Deeper Connect series of devices that provide a decentralized private network (DPN) leveraging over 200,000 global nodes. This approach aims to deliver enhanced privacy, anonymity, and freedom from censorship compared to traditional VPNs. The company targets both consumers and businesses seeking secure, subscription-free VPN solutions with integrated cybersecurity features and Web3 mining capabilities. The website demonstrates a strong market position as a pioneer in decentralized VPN hardware with a large global user base and successful crowdfunding history. Technically, the website is built using modern web technologies including React and Next.js, hosted likely behind Cloudflare with Shopify powering the e-commerce platform. The site is well optimized for mobile devices, has good SEO practices, and integrates analytics tools such as Google Analytics and Cloudflare Insights. The presence of a bug bounty program and continuous firmware updates indicates a proactive approach to security and product maintenance. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and avoids exposing sensitive data in its HTML content. However, explicit security headers are not detected, and no cookie consent mechanism is present despite the use of tracking scripts. The WHOIS data is unavailable due to privacy protection or malformed queries, which slightly reduces transparency but is common for privacy-focused tech companies. Overall, the security posture is solid but could be improved with additional headers and privacy compliance features. The overall risk assessment is low with a high trustworthiness rating based on website professionalism, content quality, and business credibility. Strategic recommendations include implementing cookie consent, publishing a security policy and incident response contacts, adding security.txt for vulnerability disclosure, and enhancing security headers to further strengthen the security posture and user trust.

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.

Priority findings

3 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.

    • 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

  2. 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

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.

Business context

Business profile

Deeper Network operates in the technology sector with a focus on decentralized VPN hardware and cybersecurity. Their business model centers on selling hardware devices that provide lifetime subscription-free VPN service, differentiating from traditional VPN providers that rely on monthly fees. The company has demonstrated strong market traction through successful crowdfunding campaigns and maintains a large global node network, positioning itself as a leader in decentralized VPN solutions. Their target customers include privacy-conscious consumers, tech enthusiasts, and businesses requiring secure network infrastructure. The company maintains an active presence on multiple social media platforms and offers extensive support and knowledge resources. The affiliate program suggests additional revenue streams through partnerships. Overall, Deeper Network shows signs of a growing and innovative company with a clear competitive advantage in decentralized VPN technology.

Security posture

The security maturity of Deeper Network's website and product ecosystem is moderate to high. The use of HTTPS and absence of exposed sensitive data are positive indicators. The company demonstrates security awareness through its bug bounty program and continuous firmware updates for its devices. However, the lack of explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security hardening of the web presence. The absence of a cookie consent mechanism despite tracking scripts may pose compliance risks under GDPR and similar regulations. No direct incident response or security contact information is published, which could hinder timely vulnerability reporting. The WHOIS privacy protection is justified given the business type but limits transparency. Overall, the security posture is good but can be improved by adopting additional web security best practices and enhancing privacy compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a cookie consent banner to comply with privacy regulations and inform users about tracking.
  2. Add security headers such as CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to strengthen web security.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and provide clear incident response contact channels.
  4. Create and host a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and improve transparency.
  5. Enhance WHOIS transparency if possible or provide verified company information on the website to increase trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website leverages a modern technology stack including React and Next.js frameworks, combined with Shopify for e-commerce functionality. Hosting and CDN services appear to be provided by Cloudflare, enhancing performance and security. The site is well optimized for mobile devices and demonstrates fast loading times. SEO and accessibility features are implemented adequately. Analytics and tracking are managed via Google Tag Manager and Cloudflare Insights, though privacy compliance mechanisms are lacking. The technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable online presence, but there is room for improvement in security header implementation and privacy features to reduce technical risks.
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.
