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

Ready (formerly Argent) is a fintech company specializing in crypto financial services, offering an onchain alternative to traditional banking through its Ready app and Ready Wallet browser extension. The company targets both general crypto users and crypto natives, providing services such as high-yield investing, cashback rewards, self-custody wallets, and seamless crypto spending with zero fees. Backed by prominent venture capital firms and trusted by major exchanges, Ready positions itself as a secure and user-friendly platform in the competitive crypto space. Technically, the website is built on Webflow CMS with modern JavaScript libraries including jQuery and integrates analytics and marketing tools such as Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and Twitter Ads. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and performs moderately well, with embedded multimedia content enhancing user engagement. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and promotes strong security practices like 2FA and fraud protection. However, explicit security headers are not detected, and there is no public vulnerability disclosure or incident response contact information. Privacy compliance is good with a comprehensive privacy policy, though a cookie consent mechanism is absent. Overall, the website demonstrates a high level of professionalism, trustworthiness, and technical maturity. The lack of WHOIS transparency is mitigated by strong business signals and privacy protection norms in fintech. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security header implementation, publishing vulnerability disclosure details, and adding cookie consent to improve compliance and user trust.

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. 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

    • 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

  3. 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.

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

Ready operates in the finance and technology sectors, focusing on crypto banking alternatives and self-custody wallets. Its business model revolves around providing crypto financial products with integrated cashback and rewards, appealing to both casual and advanced crypto users. The company benefits from strong venture capital backing and partnerships with major crypto exchanges, which enhances its market credibility. The presence of multiple product offerings and a growing user base (2 million downloads for Ready Wallet) indicate healthy growth and market penetration. The company leverages digital marketing and analytics tools effectively to engage its audience and optimize conversions.

Security posture

Ready exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, emphasis on user-controlled asset custody, and fraud detection mechanisms. The promotion of 2FA and partnerships with top exchanges further strengthen its security credibility. However, the absence of key security headers and lack of public incident response or vulnerability disclosure channels represent gaps that could be addressed to enhance transparency and resilience. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the website content. Privacy policy is comprehensive and GDPR compliant, but cookie consent is missing, which is a compliance risk.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including Content Security Policy (CSP), Strict-Transport-Security (HSTS), X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  3. Add a cookie consent banner/mechanism to comply with privacy regulations and improve user trust.
  4. Provide clear incident response contact information, such as a dedicated security or abuse email address.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to ensure no vulnerable libraries are in use.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Webflow CMS, leveraging modern web technologies such as jQuery and Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing. Embedded Vimeo videos and social media integrations enhance content richness. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility features like focus outlines and keyboard navigation support. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in loading speed by optimizing multimedia content and scripts. The technical infrastructure is stable but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and explicit privacy compliance mechanisms.
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.
