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 23 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
      • NIST SC-17: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-17: Public Key Infrastructure Certificates

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.

Breach exposure

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention lifex.vc, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for lifex.vc right now. New leaks arrive continuously, so monitoring on Breach alerts you if that changes.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

LifeX operates in a niche market segment combining longevity science, AI acceleration, and climate innovation. Their business model is venture capital investment with a strong emphasis on founder support and strategic partnerships. The firm showcases a curated portfolio of startups and a team of experienced entrepreneurs and scientists, enhancing their market credibility. The absence of direct contact information suggests a controlled communication channel, typical for VC firms. The website's external links to portfolio companies and media coverage indicate a well-established ecosystem. Growth indicators include recent news and active social media presence of team members.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a good SSL configuration and uses cookie consent tools to comply with GDPR. No security headers were detected in the HTML content, which is a potential area for improvement. There is no published security policy or incident response information, which limits transparency in case of security events. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the source code. The use of third-party scripts like Google Tag Manager and Cookiebot is managed with consent mechanisms. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced with additional headers and published policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a formal security policy and incident response plan on the website.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Provide clear contact channels for security incidents (e.g., security@lifex.vc or abuse@lifex.vc).
  4. Consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and dependencies for security vulnerabilities.

Notes

The website is built on Webflow CMS, utilizing modern web technologies including Lottie animations for interactive content, Google Fonts for typography, and Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing. Cookiebot is integrated for cookie consent management, ensuring GDPR compliance. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and fast loading times due to CDN hosting. Accessibility features are present but could be further enhanced. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. The technical infrastructure is modern and well-maintained, supporting a professional user experience.
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.
