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

Radworks is a small technology company focused on providing a secure, local-first launcher for decentralized frontends, supporting open source and peer-to-peer collaboration. Their key services include the Radworks App, Radicle code collaboration stack, and Drips funding platform. The company targets developers and open source contributors, positioning itself as a niche player in decentralized software infrastructure. The website is professionally designed using modern web technologies, with good mobile optimization and clear navigation. However, it lacks comprehensive privacy and security policies, contact information, and cookie consent mechanisms. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled but could be improved by adding security headers and publishing incident response details. Overall, the site is trustworthy but would benefit from enhanced privacy compliance and transparency.

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

8 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  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 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

    • 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

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

Radworks operates in the technology sector with a focus on decentralized and peer-to-peer open source software. Their business model revolves around providing tools and infrastructure for secure app launching and open source funding. The company leverages partnerships with projects like Radicle and Drips to enhance its ecosystem. The domain age and WHOIS data align with the company's recent founding in 2023. The absence of direct contact information and limited policy disclosures suggest a startup or early-stage project. The company demonstrates consistent branding and a clear value proposition targeting a specialized developer audience.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and has domain transfer protections in place, indicating a baseline security posture. However, it lacks DNSSEC, security headers, and published security policies or incident response contacts. No forms or data collection points reduce attack surface but also limit user engagement. The absence of cookie consent and privacy compliance details may pose regulatory risks. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. Overall, security maturity is moderate but could be significantly improved with standard best practices and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to enhance domain security and prevent DNS spoofing.
  2. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to improve GDPR compliance.
  3. Add security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to strengthen web security.
  4. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to build trust and readiness.
  5. Consider adding verified contact information to improve business credibility and user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Framer, a modern web design and prototyping platform, with SVG graphics and web fonts for a polished appearance. The site loads quickly and is mobile optimized with responsive design breakpoints. Hosting details are not explicit but DNS is managed by NS1, a reputable provider. No analytics or third-party tracking scripts were detected, indicating minimal user tracking. The site lacks advanced accessibility features but meets basic standards. Technical debt appears low, but opportunities exist to improve security configurations and privacy compliance.
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.
