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

Distributed Global is a small investment firm specializing in the blockchain and digital asset ecosystem. The website serves primarily as an informational portal presenting the company's focus and contact email. The business appears to be niche-focused with a clear target audience of investors and participants in blockchain technologies. The domain age and registration data align well with the company's founding year, supporting legitimacy. Technically, the website is simple and uses an outdated jQuery library, with minimal content and basic design. There is no evidence of advanced CMS or frameworks, and no forms or tracking mechanisms are present. Security posture is weak due to lack of security headers, no DNSSEC, and no visible HTTPS enforcement details. Privacy and cookie policies are absent, indicating compliance gaps. Overall, the site is accessible and functional but lacks modern security and privacy best practices.

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

8 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 company positions itself as an investment firm in the blockchain and digital asset sector, a growing and competitive market. The business model is investment-focused, likely generating revenue through asset management or advisory services. The website content is minimal, suggesting a lean digital presence possibly relying on direct client relationships or other channels. No social media or partner links are present, indicating limited digital marketing or partnership disclosures. The domain is mature and registered with a reputable registrar without privacy protection, which supports transparency. The lack of detailed business information such as physical address or phone numbers limits full business intelligence assessment.

Security posture

Security maturity is low to moderate. The absence of DNSSEC and security headers reduces protection against DNS attacks and common web vulnerabilities. The use of an outdated jQuery version introduces potential client-side security risks. No forms or input fields reduce attack surface but also limit user engagement. No incident response or security policy information is provided, indicating limited security governance transparency. The domain status flags provide some protection against unauthorized domain changes. Overall, the site would benefit from implementing HTTPS enforcement, modern security headers, updated libraries, and published security policies to improve trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and enforce HTTPS with strong TLS configuration and HSTS headers.
  3. Update jQuery to the latest secure version or replace with modern JavaScript frameworks.
  4. Publish privacy and cookie policies to comply with GDPR and other regulations.
  5. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  6. Consider adding contact phone numbers and physical address to improve business credibility.
  7. Introduce a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to enhance security transparency.
  8. Implement basic analytics with privacy compliance to better understand user engagement.
  9. Improve mobile optimization and accessibility for better user experience.
  10. Regularly review and update website content and technical stack to maintain security and professionalism.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built with basic HTML, CSS, and an old version of jQuery (1.6.4) loaded from Google's CDN. No modern frameworks or CMS platforms are detected. The site uses fixed positioning for layout elements and minimal styling. No meta tags for SEO or social media (Open Graph, JSON-LD) are present. Hosting provider is not explicitly identified but domain registrar is GoDaddy.com, LLC. No analytics or tracking scripts are found. Performance is likely moderate due to minimal content but could be improved with modern responsive design and accessibility features. The site lacks HTTPS enforcement details and security headers, which are critical for modern web security. Overall, the technical implementation is basic and would benefit from modernization and security hardening.
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.
