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

Be You is a nationally recognized mental health and wellbeing initiative focused on supporting educators and learning communities across Australia. Delivered by Education Services Australia Limited in partnership with Beyond Blue, Early Childhood Australia, and headspace, it offers free accredited professional learning modules, resources, and implementation support to empower educators in fostering mentally healthy environments. The website reflects a mature, well-branded educational platform with a clear mission and strong government backing. Technically, the site employs modern web technologies including React.js, jQuery, and asynchronous analytics scripts, hosted on Amazon AWS infrastructure, ensuring good performance and mobile optimization. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced, though improvements can be made by enabling DNSSEC and adding security headers. Privacy compliance is partial, with a comprehensive privacy policy linked externally but lacking an on-site cookie consent mechanism. Overall, the site is trustworthy, professional, and well-positioned within the education sector.

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. 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

  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 Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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

The organization operates as a large non-profit educational entity serving a broad audience of educators, leadership teams, and pre-service professionals in Australia. Its business model centers on providing free, evidence-based mental health resources and professional development, supported by government funding and strategic partnerships. The platform's extensive resource library, accredited courses, and community registration model indicate a strong market position in the education and mental health space. The presence of multiple social media channels and event offerings suggests active engagement and outreach. The lack of direct contact emails or phone numbers on the homepage implies a controlled communication channel, likely via contact forms to manage inquiries efficiently.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with HTTPS enabled and no visible exposure of sensitive data. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represents areas for enhancement. The use of third-party analytics and tracking pixels without a visible cookie consent banner may pose privacy compliance risks, especially under GDPR. No incident response or security policy pages were found, indicating potential gaps in transparency and readiness. Overall, the security posture is adequate for the sector but could benefit from formalized policies and technical hardening.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to strengthen DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and publish security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  3. Add a cookie consent banner to comply with privacy regulations and inform users about tracking.
  4. Publish explicit security and incident response policies to enhance transparency and trust.
  5. Provide direct contact information for security or privacy concerns to improve incident response readiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack including React.js and jQuery, with asynchronous loading of analytics scripts to optimize performance. Hosting on AWS DNS infrastructure suggests reliable uptime and scalability. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible with good SEO practices evident from meta tags and structured navigation. No CMS was explicitly detected, indicating a custom or proprietary solution. Performance is fast with no broken elements observed. Opportunities exist to improve security headers and privacy compliance mechanisms to reduce technical risk and enhance user trust.
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.
