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

Secret Key Labs Limited operates the Xverse platform, a comprehensive Bitcoin wallet and gateway to the BitcoinFi ecosystem. The company offers a self-custody wallet that supports buying, holding, and trading Bitcoin and related assets such as Ordinals, Runes, and Layer 2 tokens. With over 1.7 million users and strong media presence, Xverse is positioned as a leading player in the Bitcoin wallet market, targeting crypto investors and DeFi enthusiasts. The platform supports multiple operating systems and browsers, including iOS, Android, Chrome, Brave, and Arc, and integrates with hardware wallets like Ledger and Keystone for enhanced security. Technically, the website is built using modern web technologies including Webflow CMS, JavaScript, jQuery, and integrates analytics and marketing tools such as Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Hotjar, and Optibase. The site is well-optimized for mobile devices, fast loading, and accessible. Security best practices are observed with encrypted on-device key storage and regular audits, although some improvements are recommended such as adding security headers and explicit cookie consent mechanisms. The security posture is strong with no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. The company maintains transparency with a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service. However, incident response and vulnerability disclosure policies are not explicitly published, which could be improved. Overall, the domain registration is consistent with the business identity, enhancing trustworthiness. The overall risk assessment is low, with recommendations focusing on enhancing privacy compliance and security transparency to maintain and improve user trust and regulatory adherence.

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

3 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.

    • 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

  2. 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

Xverse is strategically positioned in the growing BitcoinFi market, leveraging the expanding interest in Bitcoin-based DeFi, NFTs, and Layer 2 solutions. Its business model centers on providing a secure, self-custody wallet that integrates multiple Bitcoin assets and DeFi applications, appealing to both retail users and developers via its API offerings. The company benefits from strong user adoption, media recognition, and partnerships with hardware wallet providers. Revenue streams likely include transaction fees, staking services, and possibly API usage. The target customer segments include crypto investors, NFT collectors, and DeFi users seeking secure and versatile Bitcoin asset management. Growth indicators include a large user base and continuous feature expansion. The partnership ecosystem includes hardware wallet manufacturers and media outlets, supporting credibility and market reach.

Security posture

Xverse demonstrates a mature security posture with a focus on self-custody and user control over private keys, encrypted on-device storage, and hardware wallet integration. Regular security audits by top firms are claimed, enhancing trust. The absence of personal data tracking and minimal data collection reduce privacy risks. However, the lack of visible security headers and absence of published incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies represent areas for improvement. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. Compliance with GDPR is indicated by the privacy policy, but cookie consent mechanisms are missing. Overall, the security culture appears strong but could benefit from enhanced transparency and technical hardening.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a visible cookie consent banner to comply with GDPR and other privacy regulations.
  2. Publish a formal incident response and vulnerability disclosure policy to improve transparency and user trust.
  3. Add and configure security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options to harden the website against common attacks.
  4. Consider publishing a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability reporting.
  5. Enhance documentation on data retention policies and user data protection measures.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern technology stack leveraging Webflow CMS, JavaScript, and popular analytics and marketing tools. It supports multiple platforms and browsers with excellent mobile optimization and fast performance. The use of Google Analytics, Hotjar, and Google Tag Manager indicates moderate user tracking for analytics and marketing purposes. The site is well-structured with proper meta tags and SEO optimization. No CMS vulnerabilities or outdated libraries were detected. Hosting appears to be via Webflow's infrastructure, providing reliable uptime and performance. Technical debt is minimal, but security header implementation is lacking, representing a technical risk that should be addressed to improve overall security posture.
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.
