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

GetBlock.io is a technology company founded in 2019 that provides instant access to blockchain RPC nodes, targeting Web3 developers and blockchain projects. The company operates in the blockchain infrastructure sector, offering API services that enable multi-chain blockchain node access. The website is professionally designed using modern technologies such as Tailwind CSS and is hosted behind Cloudflare, which provides security and performance benefits. However, the website content is partially blocked by Cloudflare's WAF challenge, limiting full content visibility. Security posture is strong with HTTPS and security headers, but privacy and cookie policies are not visible, and no direct contact information is found on the accessible content. The domain is privacy protected via Domains By Proxy, a common practice for tech startups, and the domain age aligns with the company's founding year. Overall, the site demonstrates a good level of professionalism and technical maturity but lacks visible compliance and contact 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

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 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

  4. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Unregistered MX Record

      MX record points to unregistered domain: 4nzo4tkrdjkcnrjpqxngrwy5t7ju3e66topv3h5dox26eap2otmq.mx-verification.google.com

      What to do: Remove or fix MX record pointing to unregistered domain

      • RFC 5321 §5.1
      • NIS2 21(2)(i)
      • IR 2024/2690 12.4: Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 12.4: Asset inventory

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

GetBlock.io positions itself as a key player in the blockchain infrastructure market by providing RPC node access to developers and enterprises. Its business model revolves around API-based services for blockchain connectivity, which is critical for decentralized application development. The company targets a technical audience including blockchain developers and enterprises requiring reliable node access. The use of privacy protection in WHOIS is justified given the tech industry norms. The lack of visible contact details and compliance documentation may impact trust for some users. The company appears to maintain a moderate size and operates primarily in the US, with a focus on technology and blockchain sectors. No explicit partnerships or subsidiaries were identified from the accessible data.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with good SSL configuration and security headers, indicating a solid baseline security posture. Hosting behind Cloudflare adds an additional layer of protection including WAF and DNS security, although DNSSEC is not enabled, which is a recommended improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the accessible content. However, the absence of published security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms represents a compliance gap. The presence of Cloudflare's challenge page suggests active protection against automated threats but also limits content accessibility. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced with transparency and formalized policies.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to strengthen DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with explicit GDPR compliance statements.
  3. Add clear contact information including support and security incident response channels.
  4. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy and security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Improve accessibility features to meet compliance standards and enhance user experience.
Site observations

Automated reading of the public site. Ratings are indicative.

Cloudflare detected. Presence of Cloudflare challenge scripts and turnstile captcha indicates WAF protection blocking direct content access. These observations may be incomplete. For a fuller analysis, contact guard@offseq.com.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern front-end stack with Tailwind CSS and JavaScript, hosted on Cloudflare infrastructure which provides CDN, DNS, and security services. Performance is moderate with responsive design and good mobile optimization. SEO is basic with proper meta tags but lacks advanced structured data or rich snippets. Accessibility is basic and could be improved. The domain registration is stable and privacy protected, typical for technology startups. The presence of Cloudflare WAF challenge indicates proactive security but also restricts full content analysis. Overall, the technical implementation is solid with room for enhancements in compliance and transparency.
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.
