About
What Is KidSafe Index?
KidSafe Index helps parents stay informed about online risks affecting kids, teens, and the broader family environment around them. We track emerging threats, platform safety concerns, and child-focused online risks, while also highlighting broader family-relevant digital threats like scams, breaches, phishing, malware, and privacy concerns.
Why It Exists
Parents are constantly expected to keep up with new apps, platform changes, harmful online trends, scams, privacy issues, and fast-moving digital safety concerns. That information is often scattered, overly technical, or easy to miss.
KidSafe Index brings it together in one place and makes it easier to understand. The site is designed to help families make sense of both child-focused online safety risks and the broader digital threats that can affect the household around them.
What You’ll Find Here
- • Clear summaries of child and teen online safety risks
- • Broader family-relevant digital threat tracking
- • Platform-related safety concerns and online threat trends
- • Easy-to-understand risk scoring
- • Practical guidance and next steps
Who It’s For
KidSafe Index is built for parents, caregivers, and families who want a clearer view of the online risks that may affect the kids in their lives, while also staying aware of the broader digital threats that can impact the household as a whole.
