Globbersthemes.com is a specialized Joomla template and extension provider with a long-standing presence since 2007. The website offers a broad catalog of free and commercial Joomla templates compatible with Joomla versions 3, 4, and 5, targeting Joomla users and web developers. The business model focuses on template sales supplemented by free offerings to attract users. Technically, the site is built on Joomla CMS, leveraging common web technologies such as jQuery, Bootstrap, and FontAwesome, hosted by OVH sas. The site is mobile responsive with good navigation and professional design. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS enabled but lacking advanced security headers and DNSSEC. Privacy compliance is weak due to missing privacy and cookie policies and absence of consent mechanisms. Contact is available via a contact form, but no direct emails or phone numbers are published. Overall, the site is safe, professional, and trustworthy but would benefit from improved privacy and security practices.

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

15 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to Telnet using firewall or VPN

      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
    • Critical

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)

  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

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 · found on this site
  • 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

The company operates in the technology sector, focusing on Joomla CMS templates and extensions. Its market position is niche, catering to Joomla users seeking quality templates and extensions. The business model includes free and paid templates, with revenue likely generated from template sales. The website shows moderate branding consistency and trust indicators such as domain age and social media presence. The target audience includes web developers, designers, and Joomla site owners. The company appears small-sized with no parent or subsidiary companies identified. The lack of direct contact details and formal policies suggests a lean operation focused on digital product delivery.

Security posture

The website has a basic security posture with HTTPS enabled and domain status protections to prevent unauthorized changes. However, it lacks DNSSEC and important security headers like Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is provided. The absence of privacy and cookie policies and consent mechanisms indicates compliance gaps with GDPR and related regulations. Google Analytics is used without visible privacy controls, increasing privacy risk. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but requires enhancements to meet best practices and regulatory compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with GDPR compliance.
  2. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security.
  3. Add essential security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Provide clear incident response and vulnerability disclosure information, including security contact channels.
  5. Enhance privacy compliance by implementing cookie consent mechanisms and transparent data collection disclosures.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses Joomla CMS with a custom Globbersthemes framework, integrating jQuery, Bootstrap, FontAwesome, and Google Fonts. The hosting provider is OVH sas, a reputable European hosting company. Performance is moderate with responsive design and mobile optimization. SEO is supported by meta tags and structured navigation. However, the site lacks advanced accessibility features and security headers. Google Analytics is integrated for tracking. The technical stack is modern but could benefit from improved security configurations and privacy controls to reduce risk and enhance user trust.
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.
