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

Vecteezy is a well-established online platform providing free and premium vector graphics, images, photos, and videos primarily targeting designers, marketers, and content creators. The website offers a freemium business model with a large repository of graphic resources accessible via downloads and subscription plans. The platform is positioned as a leading resource in the digital media and design industry, catering to a broad audience seeking high-quality visual content. From a technical perspective, the website employs modern web technologies including JavaScript frameworks, Vite build tooling, and a robust CDN infrastructure via Fastly to ensure fast and responsive user experiences. The site is mobile-optimized and demonstrates good SEO and accessibility practices. Security measures such as HTTPS enforcement, Content Security Policy with nonce, CSRF tokens, and reCAPTCHA integration indicate a mature security posture. However, the absence of WHOIS registration data is a notable anomaly that impacts domain trustworthiness. Despite this, the website's content quality, privacy compliance, and professional presentation support its legitimacy. No critical vulnerabilities or security issues were detected, though the site lacks a publicly available security policy or incident response contacts. Overall, Vecteezy presents a low-risk profile with strong business credibility and technical maturity. Strategic improvements in transparency around domain registration and security policies would further enhance trust and compliance.

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

4 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. 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

  3. 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

Vecteezy operates in the competitive digital media sector, focusing on providing graphic resources through a freemium model. Its competitive advantage lies in the breadth and quality of free and premium content, appealing to a wide range of creative professionals. Revenue streams likely include premium subscriptions and advertising partnerships. The platform leverages partnerships with major ad networks and analytics providers to optimize monetization and user engagement. Growth indicators include extensive content offerings and a strong brand presence across social media channels. The company maintains a professional online presence but could benefit from enhanced public business disclosures and direct contact information to strengthen customer trust and support.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with HTTPS, CSP, CSRF protection, and bot mitigation via reCAPTCHA. Security headers are implemented to protect against common web vulnerabilities. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were identified in the analysis. However, the lack of a dedicated security policy page and incident response contact information limits transparency and preparedness perception. Compliance with GDPR is indicated through privacy and cookie policies with consent mechanisms. The absence of vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files suggests room for improvement in vulnerability management and responsible disclosure practices. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by formalizing security governance and communication.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and compliance.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file.
  4. Enhance domain registration transparency by ensuring WHOIS data is publicly available or justified.
  5. Add verified company contact emails and phone numbers to improve business credibility and user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern JavaScript-based frontend framework with Vite as the build tool, supported by a Fastly CDN for global content delivery. Integration with Google services (reCAPTCHA, Tag Manager, Analytics) and third-party ad networks indicates a mature digital marketing infrastructure. Performance is optimized with preconnects and preloads for critical assets. The site is mobile responsive with good accessibility features. No major technical debt or outdated technologies were detected. Opportunities exist to improve technical documentation and security transparency to reduce operational risks and enhance stakeholder confidence.
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.
