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

Template Sell Pvt. Ltd. operates an online marketplace specializing in premium and free WordPress themes, plugins, and HTML templates. Founded in 2015 and based in Queens, New York, the company targets WordPress developers, website designers, and small to medium businesses seeking quality website templates. The platform offers direct sales and subscription plans, positioning itself as a niche player in the digital product marketplace with a global reach. Technically, the website is built on WordPress 5.8.12 with key plugins such as Easy Digital Downloads and Jetpack, supported by Cloudflare for DNS and CDN services. The site demonstrates moderate performance with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility features. SEO practices are adequately implemented with proper meta tags and structured data. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and employs domain registration locks to prevent unauthorized changes. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, and security headers are absent, representing areas for improvement. Privacy compliance is strong, with clear privacy and cookie policies and consent mechanisms in place. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies were found. Overall, Template Sell presents a professional and trustworthy online marketplace with a solid technical foundation and good privacy practices. Enhancing security headers and DNS security would further strengthen its security posture.

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 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';…

  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

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

Template Sell holds a focused market position as a digital marketplace for WordPress and HTML templates, catering to developers and businesses worldwide. Its business model revolves around direct product sales and subscription plans, generating revenue from theme and plugin purchases. The company maintains a consistent brand presence with active social media channels and a clear value proposition. Growth potential exists through expanding product offerings and improving security and compliance transparency. Partnerships with theme developers and plugin authors support a diverse product catalog. The company operates as a small-sized entity with a clear focus on technology and e-commerce sectors.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and domain registration protections in place. The absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options indicates gaps that could expose the site to certain attack vectors. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. Privacy policies and cookie consent mechanisms align with GDPR requirements, but no explicit incident response or security policy pages were found. Overall, the security posture is adequate for the business type but would benefit from implementing additional security controls and formal incident response documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  3. Develop and publish a dedicated security policy and incident response plan to improve transparency and preparedness.
  4. Regularly audit and update WordPress plugins and themes to minimize vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is powered by WordPress CMS version 5.8.12, utilizing popular plugins such as Easy Digital Downloads for e-commerce functionality and Jetpack for site stats and features. The tech stack includes jQuery and Font Awesome for UI components. Hosting and DNS are managed via Cloudflare, providing CDN and DNS services but without DNSSEC enabled. The site loads with moderate performance and is mobile optimized. SEO is supported by proper meta tags, Open Graph tags, and JSON-LD structured data describing the business. The site uses Mailchimp for newsletter subscriptions and Google Analytics for traffic analysis. No critical technical debt or deprecated technologies were detected, but security header implementation is lacking.
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.
