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

iKeepSafe Coalition is a well-established organization founded in 2005 that specializes in privacy certification and compliance assessments for educational technology products. Their services help EdTech vendors meet federal and state privacy laws, enhancing trust and transparency around student data privacy. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand with clear messaging targeted at educational institutions, vendors, educators, and parents. The company holds multiple recognized certifications such as FERPA, COPPA Safe Harbor, California Student Privacy Certified, and ATLIS Certified, positioning it as a leader in the education privacy compliance sector. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern JavaScript libraries and analytics tools including Google Analytics and LinkedIn Insight Tag. The site is mobile optimized and performs moderately well, though there is room for improvement in accessibility and SEO. The domain is registered with a reputable registrar since 2005, indicating a stable online presence. Security posture is good with HTTPS enforced, but lacks some advanced security headers and explicit incident response policies. Overall, the security posture is solid with no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. However, the absence of a cookie consent mechanism and security headers are areas for improvement to enhance privacy compliance and security best practices. The website is safe for general audiences and does not contain any adult or questionable content. The business credibility is high, supported by clear contact information, testimonials, and certifications. Strategic recommendations include enabling DNSSEC, implementing security headers, publishing incident response policies, and adding a cookie consent banner to improve compliance and user trust. These steps will strengthen the security and privacy posture, aligning with the organization's mission to promote student data privacy in educational technology.

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 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 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

iKeepSafe operates in the niche market of educational technology privacy certification, serving EdTech vendors, schools, and parents. Their competitive advantage lies in recognized certifications and partnerships with educational organizations, which facilitate vendor compliance with complex privacy laws. The business model is service-based, focusing on assessments, certifications, and training courses. Revenue likely derives from certification fees and consulting. The company demonstrates growth through multiple certifications and case studies, indicating a strong partnership ecosystem. The website content and testimonials suggest a customer-centric approach with emphasis on trust and transparency. The organization is medium-sized, US-based, and well-positioned in the education privacy compliance market.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses clientTransferProhibited domain status, indicating good baseline security. However, it lacks DNSSEC and common security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security, which are recommended to mitigate advanced threats. No incident response or security policy pages were found, which could limit transparency and preparedness. The absence of a cookie consent mechanism may pose compliance risks under GDPR and similar regulations. No vulnerable libraries or exposed sensitive data were detected. Overall, the security maturity is moderate to good, with clear opportunities for enhancement in policy transparency and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Publish explicit security and incident response policy pages to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Add a cookie consent banner/mechanism to comply with GDPR and other privacy regulations.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to avoid vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with jQuery and uses modern analytics and marketing tools such as Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and LinkedIn Insight Tag. The site loads media-rich content including videos and uses a responsive design for mobile optimization. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in accessibility and SEO. Hosting is provided by NetEarth One Inc., a known registrar and hosting provider. The technical infrastructure is stable but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and performance optimizations to reduce technical debt and improve user experience.
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.
