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. 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 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

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

Pantera Capital's business intelligence reveals a well-established firm with a clear focus on blockchain investments. Their competitive advantage lies in their early entry into the market and comprehensive fund offerings. The business model centers on asset management with multiple fund strategies catering to different investor needs. The firm leverages partnerships for fund management portals and maintains active marketing and analytics tracking to optimize outreach. Growth indicators include a large asset base under management and a history of firsts in the industry. The company maintains a professional online presence with consistent branding and trust signals such as a bug bounty program and privacy compliance.

Security posture

The security posture of Pantera Capital's website is generally good. HTTPS is enforced, and domain registration includes protective status flags. The presence of a bug bounty program indicates proactive vulnerability management. However, the absence of DNSSEC and HTTP security headers represents areas for improvement. No exposed sensitive data or obvious vulnerabilities were detected in the content. Privacy compliance is strong with cookie consent and privacy policies in place. Incident response contact information and a formal security policy are not publicly available, which could be enhanced to improve transparency and readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement standard HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and incident response procedures.
  4. Add a security.txt file to facilitate standardized vulnerability disclosure.
  5. Consider adding visible contact emails or phone numbers for investor relations and security reporting to improve trust and accessibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern tech stack including Yoast SEO for optimization, HubSpot and Google Analytics for marketing and analytics, and LinkedIn Insight for professional audience tracking. The site uses Foundation CSS framework and jQuery for frontend interactions. Hosting appears to be on AWS infrastructure, indicated by Amazon Registrar and AWS DNS servers. Performance is moderate with video backgrounds and rich media content, but mobile optimization and responsive design are well implemented. Accessibility features are basic but present. SEO is well addressed with meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. Technical risks include lack of DNSSEC and missing security headers, which should be addressed to reduce attack surface.
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.
