Your iPad cannot be infected simply by visiting a website (and in the case of the iPad, not at all). Safari will warn you if the website may be deceptive (that is, the certificate is invalid/expired).

Virus or no? I was on a news website and I accidentally clicked on a link when scrolling, it didn’t fully bring me to that website because it said something along the lines of “Safari couldn’t establish a secure connection to the server…” So I took the link and plugged it into virus total and there were 4 positives saying malware. Is my iPad safe since safari couldn’t load the website?
