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 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 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

Emercoin operates in the blockchain technology industry with a focus on decentralized services and software development kits. Its business model revolves around providing blockchain infrastructure and services powered by its native cryptocurrency EMC Coin. The company targets businesses requiring censorship-resistant DNS, secure communications, and ownership verification, as well as individual coinholders. Media mentions from reputable sources like Forbes and Reuters, along with RedHat certification, indicate a credible market presence. The platform's roadmap and continuous updates suggest ongoing development and growth. The partnership ecosystem includes open source contributions and social media engagement, supporting community-driven expansion. Revenue streams likely include coin transactions, service fees, and possibly enterprise integrations. The company size is small, with a focused team and no public parent or subsidiary companies.

Security posture

Emercoin's security posture is moderate to strong. The website enforces HTTPS and uses domain status clientTransferProhibited to prevent unauthorized domain transfers. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, which is a recommended best practice for DNS security. No explicit security headers were detected in the provided data, representing a potential area for improvement. The site does not expose sensitive data or vulnerable libraries, and no direct contact emails for security or incident response were found. Privacy policies exist but lack explicit GDPR compliance indicators and cookie consent mechanisms. Incident response readiness and security culture indicators are not publicly documented. Overall, the platform demonstrates a reasonable security baseline but should enhance transparency and technical controls to improve compliance and resilience.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to harden the website against common attacks.
  3. Add a cookie consent banner and detailed cookie policy to improve GDPR compliance and user privacy transparency.
  4. Publish explicit security policy and incident response contact information (e.g., security@ or abuse@ email addresses) to facilitate vulnerability reporting and incident handling.
  5. Consider adding direct company contact emails and phone numbers on the website to improve business credibility and user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built with standard modern web technologies including HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript libraries such as jQuery, Owl Carousel, Swiper, and Fancybox. It is hosted behind Cloudflare DNS, which provides DNS management and likely CDN services. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and good navigation clarity. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous loading of analytics scripts. No CMS was detected, indicating a custom or static site architecture. The technical stack is stable and well-maintained, but there is an opportunity to improve security headers and implement DNSSEC. The site uses structured data (JSON-LD) for SEO and rich snippets, enhancing search engine visibility. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business needs effectively with room for security and privacy enhancements.
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.
