Risk levelMedium

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

ThemePunch is a technology company specializing in WordPress plugins, notably Slider Revolution and Essential Grid, which provide advanced web design and animation capabilities for WordPress users. The company targets web developers, designers, and WordPress site owners, offering premium licensed software products. The website is built on WordPress CMS and uses modern web technologies including jQuery and Google Fonts. It features a professional design with consistent branding and clear navigation, although homepage content is minimal. Privacy and cookie policies are present and GDPR compliant, with a functional cookie consent mechanism. However, no explicit contact information or security policies are visible on the homepage. The WHOIS data for the domain is missing, which is unusual and reduces trustworthiness despite the professional appearance of the site. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS enabled but lacking explicit security headers. Overall, the website is functional and professional but could improve transparency and security disclosures.

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

7 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

ThemePunch operates in the WordPress plugin market, providing popular products like Slider Revolution and Essential Grid. Their business model is based on software licensing and sales targeting WordPress users seeking enhanced website design tools. The company maintains partner domains for their products and uses Google Analytics for user tracking. The absence of WHOIS data is a concern but the website's professional presentation and GDPR compliance indicate a legitimate business. Growth potential is supported by a strong product ecosystem and clear market positioning in the WordPress plugin niche. Lack of visible contact details and security policies may impact customer trust and support experience.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and implements a cookie consent banner, indicating awareness of privacy and security best practices. However, no security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options were detected, which could expose the site to certain web-based attacks. The absence of explicit incident response or security policies and lack of contact channels for security issues reduces readiness for handling security incidents. The missing WHOIS data is a notable anomaly that impacts domain trust. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved by adding security headers, publishing security policies, and providing clear security contact information.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and configure security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page with clear contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Add visible and verified company contact information including emails and phone numbers to improve business credibility and customer trust.
  4. Investigate and resolve the missing WHOIS data issue to improve domain legitimacy and trustworthiness.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct regular security audits of third-party plugins to maintain compliance and reduce vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using PHP and JavaScript technologies, including jQuery and Google Fonts. It leverages the Slider Revolution plugin for advanced slider and animation features. The site uses minified CSS and JavaScript for performance optimization and includes a cookie consent plugin for GDPR compliance. The performance is moderate with some room for improvement in accessibility and SEO. Hosting provider details are not evident from the HTML content. The site is mobile optimized and uses responsive design techniques. Technical debt appears low but the lack of security headers and WHOIS data are notable risks. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern and suitable for the business needs but could benefit from enhanced security and transparency.
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.
