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. 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 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

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

Business profile

Flowdesk operates in the finance and technology sectors, targeting institutional clients involved in digital asset trading. Its business model revolves around providing regulated trading infrastructure and liquidity solutions, leveraging proprietary algorithms and risk management tools. The company benefits from strategic partnerships and funding from HV Capital and BlackRock-managed funds, indicating strong market confidence. Its global footprint includes offices in France, the U.S., and Singapore, supporting 24/7 market access. The website's content and design reinforce its market positioning as a transparent and compliant service provider. The absence of explicit incident response or vulnerability disclosure channels suggests an area for maturity improvement. Overall, Flowdesk demonstrates growth potential and competitive advantages in the digital asset trading ecosystem.

Security posture

Flowdesk exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enabled and a compliance-first approach evident from its registration as a Digital Asset Service Provider with the French Financial Market Authority. The website includes a privacy policy, cookie consent mechanism, and publishes a public PGP key, indicating attention to data protection and secure communications. However, explicit security headers like X-Frame-Options and X-Content-Type-Options are not visible in the HTML, and DNSSEC is not enabled, which are recommended enhancements. No signs of vulnerabilities, malware, or phishing were found. Incident response contact details are not explicitly provided, which could be improved to enhance security readiness. Overall, the security posture is strong but could benefit from additional transparency and technical hardening.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to strengthen DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish and enforce security headers such as X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Content-Security-Policy explicitly.
  3. Provide clear incident response and vulnerability disclosure contact information on the website.
  4. Consider publishing a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability reporting.
  5. Maintain and regularly update privacy and compliance documentation to reflect evolving regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web technologies including React and Next.js, ensuring server-side rendering and good SEO performance. Hosting utilizes Cloudflare DNS, contributing to reliability and performance. The site is mobile-optimized with smooth navigation and fast loading times. The use of Typeform for contact forms indicates integration with third-party marketing tools. No CMS is detected, suggesting a custom-built platform tailored to the company's needs. The technical implementation is robust with room for improvement in DNS security and explicit security header configuration. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business goals effectively with high digital maturity.
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.
