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

Exodus is a leading cryptocurrency wallet provider offering a comprehensive suite of products including mobile, desktop, and web3 wallets, as well as hardware wallet integrations with Ledger and Trezor. The company targets cryptocurrency users seeking secure, user-friendly solutions for managing, swapping, buying, and staking digital assets. With millions of customers since 2015, Exodus holds a strong market position in the crypto wallet industry. Technically, the website is built on modern frameworks such as Next.js and React, optimized for performance and mobile responsiveness, and leverages Cloudflare CDN for hosting and security.

Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and well-aligned with industry standards, though the lack of WHOIS data introduces some uncertainty in domain legitimacy.

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

4 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 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

Exodus operates in the finance and technology sectors, focusing on cryptocurrency wallet solutions. Its business model revolves around software distribution, crypto asset management, and value-added services like staking and crypto swaps. The company benefits from a strong brand, extensive product ecosystem, and partnerships with payment and swap platforms such as XO Pay and XO Swap. Target customers include retail crypto investors and enthusiasts. Growth indicators include a large user base, multi-platform availability, and continuous product innovation. Strategic partnerships enhance service offerings and market reach. The company maintains a consistent brand image and provides extensive customer support, reinforcing its competitive advantage.

Security posture

Exodus demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and integration with hardware wallets for enhanced asset protection. The website avoids exposing sensitive data and maintains privacy compliance with a detailed privacy policy. However, the absence of a cookie consent mechanism and a public vulnerability disclosure policy are gaps that could affect compliance and trust. Incident response contact details are not explicitly provided, which may hinder timely communication during security events. Overall, the security culture appears strong but could benefit from increased transparency and formalized disclosure processes.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a visible cookie consent banner to ensure compliance with privacy regulations such as GDPR.
  2. Publish a formal vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  3. Provide clear incident response contact information, including dedicated security or abuse email addresses.
  4. Enhance transparency around data retention policies and user data handling practices.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web technologies including Next.js and React, ensuring a performant and responsive user experience across devices. Hosting appears to leverage Cloudflare CDN, providing scalability and security benefits. The site includes well-structured metadata and Open Graph tags for SEO and social media integration. Performance is optimized with preloading of fonts and images, and accessibility features are present. Technical debt is minimal, though the absence of a CMS suggests custom development. Opportunities exist to enhance privacy compliance and security transparency. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business goals effectively with room for incremental improvements.
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.
