  • Incident management, business continuity, supply chain
  • Yes / Partial / No responses with notes and evidence
  • Percentage scores per category and overall
  • Auto-generated actions when a control is marked "No"
  • DfE guidance text shown alongside each control

Website Security Checks

Automatically scan your school website for real security issues — TLS certificates, security headers, HTTPS configuration, and more. Results are explained in plain English, not technical jargon.

  • TLS / SSL certificate validation and expiry checking
  • HSTS, Content Security Policy, and clickjacking protection
  • HTTP to HTTPS redirect verification
  • Pass / Warn / Fail ratings with clear recommendations
  • Historical scan history for audit trail
  • Automatic governance action creation for failures

WordPress Security Scanning

Many school websites run on WordPress. IGNX Secure automatically detects WordPress and scans for known vulnerabilities in core, plugins, and themes — then explains findings in language your headteacher can act on.

  • Automatic WordPress detection with confidence scoring
  • Plugin and theme vulnerability scanning via WPScan
  • Outdated core, plugin, and theme detection
  • School-friendly explanations — not raw security jargon
  • Recommendations your website provider can action immediately
  • Safely runs in read-only mode — no aggressive testing

Karen Whitfield
School Business Manager, Millbrook Primary
"The cyber assessment mapped perfectly to the DfE guidance our governors were asking about. We went from zero visibility to a full governance report in one afternoon."
David Chen
Headteacher, Lakeview Academy
"As a trust, we could finally see which of our 12 schools were running WordPress with outdated plugins. Two had critical vulnerabilities we didn't know about."
