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

Vestige is a specialized DeFi platform focused on the Algorand blockchain, offering a swap aggregator that optimizes trading routes across Algorand DEXs. It also provides portfolio tracking, price charting, and discovery of trending Algorand Standard Assets (ASAs). The platform targets crypto traders and investors within the Algorand ecosystem, positioning itself as a niche service provider with a modern and professional web presence. Technically, the website is built using Next.js and React frameworks, leveraging Cloudflare DNS and DNSSEC for enhanced security. The site is mobile-optimized and demonstrates good performance and accessibility standards. Security-wise, the platform enforces HTTPS and DNSSEC but lacks some security headers and formalized policies such as privacy and cookie policies, which are important for compliance and user trust. The WHOIS data indicates the domain is relatively new (since 2022) and uses privacy protection, which is common in the crypto space. Overall, the platform is legitimate and professionally presented but would benefit from enhanced transparency and compliance documentation.

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

7 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • 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

  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';…

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

Vestige operates in the blockchain technology sector, specifically within decentralized finance (DeFi) on Algorand. Its business model revolves around aggregating liquidity and optimizing swaps for users, likely generating revenue through fees or partnerships. The platform appeals to a specialized audience of Algorand users and crypto traders. The presence of verified asset badges and a clean UI suggests a focus on trust and user experience. The company appears to be a small startup founded in 2022, with no visible parent or subsidiary companies. The ecosystem integrations with Tinyman and other Algorand assets indicate strategic partnerships within the blockchain community. Growth potential exists given the rising interest in Algorand and DeFi services.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid baseline security posture with HTTPS and DNSSEC enabled, reducing risks of interception and DNS spoofing. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options weakens protection against common web attacks like clickjacking and cross-site scripting. No contact information or incident response channels are published, which limits transparency and readiness for security incidents. The lack of privacy and cookie policies also indicates potential compliance gaps with GDPR and other privacy regulations. No vulnerabilities or malware indicators were detected in the content. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved by implementing recommended headers, policies, and disclosure mechanisms.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to enhance compliance and user trust.
  2. Add essential security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Provide clear contact information and establish an incident response contact channel for security issues.
  4. Consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Enhance transparency by disclosing business and regulatory information where possible.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern React/Next.js stack, ensuring good performance and responsiveness. It uses Cloudflare DNS with DNSSEC, indicating attention to DNS security. The site loads multiple JavaScript chunks and uses Font Awesome 6 for icons. The design is mobile-optimized and accessible with semantic HTML elements. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. However, no CMS or backend platform is explicitly detected. Hosting appears to be via OVH SAS registrar with Cloudflare DNS. Performance is moderate with some deferred scripts. There is no evidence of heavy tracking or advertising scripts, which is positive for privacy. Technical risks are low but could be improved by optimizing script loading and adding security headers.
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.
