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. 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"

  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

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

ThemeinProgress occupies a niche in the WordPress ecosystem, offering a broad portfolio of themes and plugins with a freemium approach. Their competitive advantage lies in unlimited license usage and free trial versions, appealing to both personal and commercial users. Revenue streams include yearly subscriptions and lifetime bundles. The target market includes WordPress users needing professional themes for news, magazines, blogs, and WooCommerce stores. The company shows growth potential through bundled offerings and support services. Partnerships appear limited to social media engagement and standard web services. Strategic observations suggest enhancing security policies and expanding marketing channels could strengthen market position.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent mechanisms aligned with GDPR. The presence of Wordfence scripts suggests active security monitoring. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure reduces transparency and preparedness. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. Security headers could be improved by adding CSP, X-Frame-Options, and related headers. Overall, the site is secure but would benefit from formalizing security governance and incident response processes.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page detailing security practices and controls.
  2. Add incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and verify comprehensive HTTP security headers including CSP and X-Frame-Options.
  4. Create and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Enhance website accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern tech stack including Bootstrap, jQuery, Font Awesome, and Yoast SEO plugin. It uses Google Fonts and integrates Google Tag Manager for analytics. Performance is moderate with standard optimization. The site is mobile responsive and SEO optimized with structured data (JSON-LD) for enhanced search presence. Technical debt appears low, but security headers and accessibility could be improved. Hosting provider details are not explicit. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business needs effectively with opportunities for modernization in security and accessibility.
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.
