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

Halcyon Tech, Inc. is a cybersecurity software and services company specializing in ransomware prevention and recovery solutions. Their platform is designed to protect Global 2000 enterprises and MSSPs from ransomware-as-a-service attacks by providing fast endpoint recovery, multiple layers of resiliency, and automated decryption capabilities. The company positions itself as a leader in cyber resilience with a strong focus on minimizing business downtime and preventing data extortion. Technically, the website demonstrates a mature digital infrastructure leveraging modern web technologies such as Webflow CMS, HubSpot marketing and analytics tools, Google reCAPTCHA Enterprise, and Microsoft Clarity. The site is well-optimized for performance, mobile responsiveness, and accessibility, reflecting a high level of digital maturity. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS, uses advanced bot protection, and integrates multiple trusted analytics and marketing services. While explicit security headers are not fully documented in the HTML, the overall posture is strong with no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. Privacy and cookie policies are present and indicate GDPR compliance, enhancing trust. Overall, the website and business present a low risk profile with professional branding, clear contact information, and a consistent cybersecurity focus. The lack of public WHOIS data is typical for privacy-conscious cybersecurity firms and does not detract from legitimacy. Strategic recommendations include publishing a dedicated security policy, incident response contacts, and a security.txt file to further enhance transparency and trust.

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

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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 Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1
    • High

      SSL Certificate Expires Soon

      SSL certificate expires in 24 days

      What to do: Renew SSL certificate before expiration

      • NIS2 21(2)(h)
      • IR 2024/2690 9.2(c): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 9.2(c): Cryptography

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

Halcyon operates in the competitive cybersecurity market with a niche focus on ransomware defense and recovery. Their business model combines software platform offerings with managed services, targeting large enterprises, MSSPs, and SMBs. The company actively engages in industry events such as Black Hat and offers live webinars to educate and attract customers. Their partner ecosystem includes a formal partner program and cyber insurance partnerships, indicating a strategic approach to market expansion. The website content and structure emphasize thought leadership and customer success, supporting strong market positioning and growth potential.

Security posture

The security posture of Halcyon's website is robust, featuring HTTPS encryption, advanced bot mitigation via Google reCAPTCHA Enterprise, and integration with reputable analytics platforms. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive information were detected. However, the absence of a publicly documented security policy and incident response contact information represents a compliance gap. The site lacks a security.txt file and explicit security headers such as X-Frame-Options and X-Content-Type-Options, which are recommended best practices. Overall, the security culture appears mature but could benefit from enhanced transparency and formalized disclosure mechanisms.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page detailing security practices and compliance frameworks.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and document security headers including X-Frame-Options and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Create and host a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and improve trust.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts to mitigate supply chain risks and vulnerabilities.

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.
