As you can see E15 is marked as dead. Black can atari at E14, but there is no sequence black can play to capture as white can extend to the right (and no nets work). 

Obviously I'm not concerned about the score outcome, as I was playing as a guest, but this should probably be addressed for similar game situations in the future.
Actually that area isn't secured because white hasn't connected at j15. Black can play h15 which makes e14 capture of the stone and j15 connecting to top right miai. The scoring system correctly figured out that area wasn't secured yet but ended up glitching in a strange way as a result.
