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

InternetComputer.org represents the Internet Computer Protocol (ICP), a decentralized blockchain-based platform enabling developers and enterprises to build secure, scalable, and unstoppable web applications. The platform positions itself as a transformative technology disrupting traditional IT and Big Tech dominance by hosting network-resident code and data with DAO governance and token processing capabilities. The website is rich in developer resources, community engagement, and ecosystem support, reflecting a mature and professional digital presence. Technically, the site leverages modern frameworks like Docusaurus and React, integrates Matomo analytics with privacy considerations, and employs Cloudflare DNS services, ensuring fast and secure delivery. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforcement and bot protection via Google reCAPTCHA Enterprise, though improvements are recommended in DNSSEC adoption and explicit security policies. Overall, the site demonstrates high professionalism, trustworthiness, and technical sophistication, supporting its role as a leading blockchain infrastructure provider.

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

3 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  2. 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

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 Internet Computer project is positioned as a pioneering technology platform in the blockchain and Web3 space, targeting developers, enterprises, and the broader decentralized community. Its business model revolves around providing infrastructure, developer tools, and governance mechanisms to enable decentralized applications and AI smart contracts. The project benefits from a strong ecosystem with active community engagement, developer grants, and partnerships. Market positioning is that of an innovative leader aiming to redefine internet architecture and application hosting. Revenue streams likely include token economics, developer services, and enterprise partnerships. Growth indicators include continuous roadmap updates, hackathons, and alliance programs. The partnership ecosystem includes DFINITY Foundation and related blockchain projects. Strategic observations highlight the emphasis on decentralization, security, and developer empowerment as key competitive advantages.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with mandatory HTTPS, use of Google reCAPTCHA Enterprise to mitigate automated abuse, and clientTransferProhibited domain status to prevent unauthorized transfers. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, which is a recommended best practice to secure DNS integrity. No explicit security.txt or incident response contacts are published, which limits transparency for vulnerability reporting. The absence of a cookie consent mechanism may pose compliance risks under GDPR and similar regulations. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. Security headers are partially present or implied but could be explicitly strengthened. Overall, the security maturity is good but can be enhanced by adopting additional DNS and policy standards and improving privacy compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a security.txt file and provide clear incident response contact information to facilitate vulnerability disclosure.
  3. Implement a cookie consent banner or mechanism to comply with GDPR and other privacy regulations.
  4. Add explicit security headers such as X-Frame-Options and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen browser security.
  5. Consider publishing a detailed security policy outlining frameworks, certifications, and data protection measures to build trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Docusaurus v2.4.3, a modern React-based static site generator optimized for documentation and developer portals. It uses Cloudflare for DNS and likely CDN services, contributing to fast performance and global availability. Analytics are handled by Matomo, configured to disable cookies, reflecting privacy-conscious data collection. Google reCAPTCHA Enterprise is integrated for bot protection. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility features. SEO is well addressed with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. No major technical debt or outdated libraries were detected. Opportunities for modernization include enabling DNSSEC and enhancing security headers. The technical infrastructure supports a robust, scalable, and secure user experience aligned with the project's blockchain technology focus.
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.
