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

Foundry is an open-source Ethereum smart contract development framework providing a comprehensive toolchain for dependency management, compilation, testing, deployment, and blockchain interaction via command-line and Solidity scripts. The project is supported by a strong developer community with over 9,000 GitHub stars and 500 contributors, indicating a solid market position within the Ethereum developer ecosystem. The website serves primarily as a documentation and resource hub for developers using Foundry tools. Technically, the site is well-implemented with modern JavaScript frameworks, Cloudflare hosting, and fast performance. However, it lacks formal privacy, cookie, and security policies, and no direct contact information is provided, which limits its privacy compliance and user trust aspects. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS and domain transfer protections, but could be improved by enabling DNSSEC and adding security headers. Overall, the site is professional and trustworthy for its target audience but would benefit from enhanced compliance and transparency measures.

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 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

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 Foundry project operates in the technology sector, specifically targeting Ethereum blockchain developers and smart contract engineers. Its business model is open-source software development supported by community contributions and sponsorships from notable collaborators like Paradigm and Ithaca. The project is relatively young, founded in 2022, and maintains a strong presence on GitHub, which serves as its primary platform for distribution and community engagement. The absence of direct business contact details and formal policies suggests a focus on developer adoption rather than commercial sales. The partnership ecosystem includes recognized blockchain infrastructure firms, enhancing credibility and potential growth. The project’s niche focus and active contributor base position it well within the competitive landscape of Ethereum development tools.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to strong security posture with HTTPS enforced and domain registration protections such as clientTransferProhibited status. However, the lack of DNSSEC and absence of common security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represent areas for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The site does not publish any security or incident response policies, nor does it provide a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file, which limits transparency and readiness for security incidents. Privacy compliance is weak due to missing privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the security maturity is adequate for an open-source project site but could be enhanced to meet higher compliance and trust standards.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to enhance GDPR compliance and user trust.
  3. Add standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Provide clear contact information and establish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file.
  5. Implement a cookie consent mechanism if cookies or tracking are used to comply with privacy regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web technologies including JavaScript/TypeScript and Rust for the underlying Foundry toolchain. The front-end uses the Vocs documentation framework and Radix UI components, hosted on Cloudflare infrastructure ensuring fast load times and global availability. The site is mobile optimized and accessible with good SEO practices including meta tags and Open Graph data. No CMS was detected, indicating a custom or static site generation approach. Performance is fast with preloading of key assets and minimal external dependencies. The technical stack is well-suited for a developer-focused documentation site but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and formalized compliance documentation.
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.
