Risk levelLow

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

TeePublic operates as an e-commerce platform specializing in apparel, primarily T-shirts featuring designs from independent artists. The website targets a broad audience interested in pop culture, comics, movies, and TV shows. The platform leverages a community-driven business model, enabling artists to sell their designs globally. Technically, the site employs modern web technologies including Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Cloudinary for media, and Cookiebot for cookie consent management, indicating a mature digital infrastructure. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent mechanisms in place, though the absence of explicit privacy policy and terms of service links is a notable gap. The WHOIS data is unavailable or privacy protected, which slightly diminishes domain trustworthiness but does not negate the legitimacy suggested by the website content and technology usage. Overall, the site presents a professional and trustworthy e-commerce experience with room for improvement in compliance transparency and security header implementation.

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

2 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 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. 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 SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

TeePublic holds a strong position in the niche market of independent artist merchandise, competing with similar platforms by offering a wide variety of designs and apparel options. Its business model focuses on empowering artists and providing a marketplace for unique designs, generating revenue through sales commissions. The company maintains active social media channels to engage its community and drive traffic. The use of multiple advertising and tracking services suggests a data-driven marketing approach aimed at customer acquisition and retention. However, the lack of visible company contact information and privacy policy may impact customer trust and regulatory compliance. Strategic partnerships or subsidiaries are not evident from the data, indicating a focused operational scope.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with HTTPS and cookie consent controls that comply with GDPR requirements. The presence of CSRF tokens in forms indicates attention to secure input handling. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The lack of a published security policy or incident response contact limits transparency and preparedness communication. Overall, the security posture is adequate for an e-commerce platform but could be enhanced by implementing additional HTTP security headers and publishing formal security documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Publish clear and accessible privacy policy and terms of service pages linked from the homepage.
  2. Implement and verify HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Provide explicit security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency.
  4. Audit and minimize third-party tracking scripts to reduce privacy risks and improve performance.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet recognized standards and improve user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack with integration of Google Analytics and Tag Manager for analytics and marketing, Cloudinary for media delivery, and Cookiebot for GDPR-compliant cookie management. The site is served over HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate, ensuring encrypted communications. Performance appears moderate with preloading of fonts and use of CDN resources. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. No CMS or hosting provider details were explicitly detected. The site uses multiple third-party scripts which may impact load times and privacy. Overall, the technical implementation supports a scalable and user-friendly e-commerce platform but would benefit from performance optimization and enhanced security configurations.
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.
