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

ExchangeRates.Pro is a specialized online platform offering real-time price comparison for Bitcoin and 50 other cryptocurrencies, aggregating offers from a wide range of exchanges, brokers, and P2P marketplaces globally. The platform supports 204 currencies and 571 payment systems, targeting cryptocurrency traders and investors seeking optimal exchange rates. Technically, the website employs modern frontend technologies such as Vue.js and Element UI, with integration of Google Analytics and ShareThis for tracking and social sharing. The site is well-designed with good navigation and mobile optimization, though accessibility could be improved. Security-wise, the site uses HTTPS with good SSL configuration and basic security headers, but lacks published security policies, vulnerability disclosure, and contact information for incident response. Privacy compliance is weak due to absence of privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the site is legitimate and functional but would benefit from enhanced privacy and security transparency.

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

7 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 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

    • 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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Google APIs

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  2. 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

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 platform occupies a niche in the cryptocurrency finance sector, providing a comprehensive and trusted service for comparing exchange rates across multiple currencies and payment methods. Its business model revolves around aggregating and presenting exchange offers to users, potentially monetizing through partnerships or affiliate links. The target audience includes global cryptocurrency traders, brokers, and casual users. The company has maintained consistent branding and content quality since its founding in 2019. While no direct contact information or certifications are published, the platform's extensive data coverage and user-friendly interface position it competitively in the market.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with enforced HTTPS and use of modern frameworks. However, the absence of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates gaps in security governance and transparency. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The use of third-party analytics and social sharing scripts introduces moderate tracking risks. Compliance with GDPR and other privacy regulations is not clearly addressed, which could pose regulatory risks.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  2. Add terms of service and a dedicated security policy page to improve transparency.
  3. Provide clear contact information including security incident response channels.
  4. Implement a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern JavaScript framework (Vue.js) with Element UI components, ensuring a responsive and interactive user interface. It leverages Google Fonts and integrates Google Analytics and ShareThis for tracking and social sharing. The site uses asynchronous script loading to optimize performance. While the hosting provider is not explicitly identified, the site uses HTTPS with valid SSL certificates. The site shows moderate loading performance and good mobile optimization. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. However, there is no CMS detected, and no server-side technologies are evident from the HTML. Technical debt appears low, but improvements in accessibility and privacy compliance are recommended.
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.
