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

LearnWorlds (CY) Ltd operates a leading AI-powered Learning Management System (LMS) platform designed for course creators and businesses worldwide. The company offers a comprehensive suite of services including course creation, marketing tools, interactive video learning, mobile app building, and extensive integrations with popular marketing and payment platforms. Positioned as a top-tier SaaS provider in the education sector, LearnWorlds serves over 11,000 customers and emphasizes a scalable, white-label solution for diverse industries. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with a modern tech stack incorporating analytics, marketing, and customer support tools. However, the site suffers from critical security issues due to the absence of a valid SSL certificate and lack of modern TLS protocols, which significantly impacts its security posture. Despite these vulnerabilities, the platform demonstrates strong privacy compliance with comprehensive cookie and privacy policies, GDPR adherence, and a robust consent mechanism. The overall risk is moderate, with recommendations focusing on immediate SSL/TLS remediation and enhanced security practices to protect user data and maintain trust.

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

2 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 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

LearnWorlds has established itself as a prominent player in the online education market, leveraging AI to enhance course creation and delivery. Its business model is subscription-based SaaS, targeting course creators, educators, and enterprises seeking customizable and scalable LMS solutions. The company benefits from a strong ecosystem of partners and subsidiaries, including specialized subdomains for academy, support, and account management. Its competitive advantages include a versatile platform with interactive features, extensive integrations, and a strong focus on user experience and marketing capabilities. The presence of numerous trust indicators such as customer testimonials, industry awards, and certifications further solidifies its market position. The company’s growth is supported by strategic partnerships and a comprehensive support infrastructure, positioning it well for continued expansion in the education technology sector.

Security posture

The current security posture of LearnWorlds' website reveals significant gaps, primarily due to the lack of a valid SSL certificate and disabled TLS protocols, which are critical for secure communications. While the site implements some security best practices such as HSTS and strict SPF and DMARC email policies, the absence of HTTPS undermines these efforts and exposes users to potential risks. No explicit incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies were found, indicating a potential area for improvement in security governance. The use of multiple third-party analytics and marketing tools introduces additional attack surfaces, necessitating rigorous monitoring and management. Overall, the security maturity appears moderate but requires urgent attention to foundational HTTPS implementation and ongoing security enhancements to safeguard user data and maintain compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Immediately install and maintain a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across all domains and subdomains.
  2. Enable and enforce modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3) while disabling deprecated protocols to enhance encryption security.
  3. Implement OCSP stapling and session resumption to improve SSL performance and security.
  4. Develop and publish a formal incident response and vulnerability disclosure policy to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Regularly audit third-party integrations and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks and ensure compliance with data protection regulations.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform with a modern technology stack including jQuery, Google Tag Manager, Mixpanel, OptinMonster, Intercom, and Cookiebot for consent management. The site integrates numerous marketing, analytics, and customer support services, reflecting a mature digital infrastructure. However, performance metrics indicate a slow load time (approx. 19.9 seconds) and a large page size (~1.65 MB), suggesting optimization opportunities. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility features, and SEO is well-implemented with comprehensive meta tags and structured data. Hosting appears to be via Cloudflare CDN, providing global DNS and performance benefits. Technical risks include the lack of valid SSL/TLS, which is critical for secure user interactions and data protection.
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.
