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

Necto Labs is a specialized R&D fund focused on advancing Web3 and future web technologies. The organization aims to push innovation to the furthest edges of human imagination by providing funding and support to relevant projects. The website is professionally designed using the Wix platform, reflecting a moderate level of digital maturity with good mobile optimization and basic SEO. However, the absence of detailed WHOIS data due to privacy protection limits the ability to fully verify domain ownership and legitimacy. Security posture is moderate with no visible security headers or policies, and privacy compliance is lacking due to missing privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the site presents a credible business front but would benefit from enhanced transparency and security measures.

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

4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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 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';…

  2. 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

  3. 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

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

Necto Labs operates in the technology sector, specifically targeting innovators and developers in the Web3 space. Its business model revolves around funding research and development projects that push the boundaries of future web technologies. The website content is relevant and targeted, but lacks detailed business information such as company registration, contact details, or certifications. The absence of these elements may impact trust and credibility with potential applicants or partners. The use of Wix as a platform suggests a small to medium-sized operation with a focus on ease of deployment rather than custom infrastructure. No partnerships or subsidiary domains were identified from the website content.

Security posture

The website currently exhibits a basic security posture. HTTPS is presumed but not explicitly confirmed in the provided data. No security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, or X-Content-Type-Options were detected. There are no visible security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms. The lack of privacy and cookie policies also indicates potential compliance gaps with GDPR and other privacy regulations. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were identified, but the reliance on Wix platform scripts means security depends heavily on Wix's infrastructure. Overall, the security maturity is low to moderate, with significant room for improvement in transparency and protective controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear consent mechanisms to improve GDPR compliance.
  2. Add visible and accessible contact information including emails and phone numbers for business and security inquiries.
  3. Configure and enforce security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Establish an incident response policy and provide dedicated contact channels for security incidents and abuse reports.
  5. Conduct regular security audits of third-party scripts and dependencies to identify and mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Wix platform utilizing Wix Thunderbolt framework and standard polyfills for browser compatibility. The tech stack includes JavaScript with core-js and focus-within polyfills, and Intl.Segmenter polyfill for internationalization support. Hosting is provided by Wix, which offers moderate performance and good mobile optimization. SEO is basic with meta tags and Open Graph data present but no advanced SEO features detected. Accessibility features are minimal but present. The site lacks custom backend or advanced technical infrastructure, relying on Wix's managed environment. Performance is moderate with no major issues detected in the HTML content.
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.
