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

  • SSL/TLS: did not complete in this scan.
  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • DNS health: did not complete in this scan.
  • GDPR outside view: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

Halborn operates in the technology and finance sectors, targeting enterprise clients requiring blockchain security solutions. Their business model focuses on providing specialized security services such as audits and penetration testing. The company enjoys a strong market position supported by high-profile clients and media features. Their partnership ecosystem includes major blockchain and financial organizations, enhancing their credibility and reach. Growth indicators include a large number of completed assessments and a sizable team of security practitioners. The company maintains a consistent brand image and professional content, reinforcing trust and authority in the industry.

Security posture

Halborn exhibits a high level of security maturity with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and no exposed sensitive information. The website does not reveal any vulnerable libraries or insecure forms. Privacy policies and cookie consent mechanisms are in place, indicating compliance with GDPR. However, the lack of a published incident response policy or security.txt file is a gap that could be addressed to improve transparency and vulnerability handling. The company’s certifications and client testimonials further support a strong security culture. Overall, the security posture is robust but could benefit from enhanced incident response disclosures.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated incident response and security policy page to improve transparency.
  2. Implement and publish a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  3. Add direct security contact emails (e.g., security@halborn.com) for incident reporting.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate risks.
  5. Establish automated monitoring for security headers and SSL certificate validity.

The website leverages a modern technology stack including Next.js and React, ensuring fast load times and responsive design. The use of CSS and JavaScript is optimized for performance and accessibility. SEO best practices are followed with proper meta tags and Open Graph data.

Opportunities exist to enhance technical robustness by integrating automated security monitoring and expanding accessibility features.
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.
