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

Magic Eden operates a leading NFT marketplace platform that enables users to discover, mint, buy, sell, and trade NFTs and digital collectibles across multiple blockchain networks including Solana, Bitcoin, Ethereum, and others. The platform targets NFT collectors, crypto enthusiasts, and digital asset traders, positioning itself as a comprehensive multi-chain marketplace with featured collections and additional services such as swapping and play features. The website demonstrates a modern technical infrastructure leveraging React, Next.js, Mantine UI, and TradingView charts, hosted and registered via Cloudflare, indicating a mature digital presence. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and domain registration protections in place, though improvements such as enabling DNSSEC and publishing security headers and policies are recommended. Privacy compliance is currently weak due to the absence of privacy and cookie policies and consent mechanisms. Overall, the platform is professionally designed and functional, with moderate user tracking via RudderStack analytics and a consistent brand presence. Strategic recommendations include enhancing privacy compliance, security policy transparency, and DNS security to strengthen trust and regulatory adherence.

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

6 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.

    • Critical

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  2. 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';…

  3. 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

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

Magic Eden holds a strong market position as a multi-chain NFT marketplace, capitalizing on the growing digital collectibles sector. Its business model revolves around facilitating NFT transactions and minting, generating revenue likely through transaction fees and platform services. The target customer segments include NFT collectors and crypto users across various blockchain ecosystems. The company shows growth indicators through continuous feature additions like swap and play functionalities. Partnerships and integrations with multiple blockchain networks enhance its ecosystem reach. The absence of explicit contact and compliance information on the website suggests areas for operational maturity improvement. The company is US-based, founded in 2021, and operates at a large scale with a professional online presence.

Security posture

The website exhibits a good security baseline with HTTPS enabled and domain registration protections such as clientDeleteProhibited and clientTransferProhibited statuses. However, the lack of DNSSEC implementation and missing security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represent gaps that could be exploited. No explicit security or incident response policies are published, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files are found, indicating limited transparency in security governance. The use of RudderStack analytics introduces moderate user tracking, which should be balanced with privacy compliance efforts. Overall, the security maturity is moderate, with room for enhancements in DNS security, header policies, and published security documentation to improve resilience and trust.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to protect against DNS spoofing and improve DNS security.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with explicit GDPR compliance statements and implement a cookie consent mechanism.
  3. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to harden the website against common web attacks.
  4. Develop and publish an incident response policy and provide clear security contact channels (e.g., security@ or abuse@ emails).
  5. Increase transparency by adding vulnerability disclosure information or a security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting and improve security culture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern React and Next.js framework with Mantine UI components and uses TradingView for charting, indicating a robust and scalable technical infrastructure. Hosting and DNS are managed by Cloudflare, providing performance and security benefits. The site is mobile-optimized with good SEO meta tags and structured Open Graph data for social sharing. Performance is moderate, with prefetching and preloading of resources evident. Accessibility features are basic but present. The absence of a CMS suggests a custom or headless architecture. Technical risks include missing DNSSEC and security headers, which should be addressed to reduce attack surface and improve trustworthiness.
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.
