How it works: Answer each question honestly based on your current situation — not where you'd like to be. Score each statement from 1 (Not in place) to 3 (Fully in place and documented). Your score updates in real time on the right.
1
Passwords & Access Control

Q1 Every system, account, and application used by our business has a unique, strong password — no shared or reused passwords.

Q2 We use a business-grade password manager that all relevant staff have access to and actively use.

Q3 Multi-factor authentication (MFA) is enabled on all critical systems — including email, banking, and cloud platforms. ⚡ Critical Control

⚠️ Critical Gap: Accounts without MFA are responsible for over 80% of data breaches. This is your highest priority fix.

Q4 When a staff member leaves, their access to all systems is revoked within 24 hours — and we have a documented process for this. ⚡ Critical Control

⚠️ Critical Gap: Former employees with active credentials are one of the most common causes of preventable data breaches.
2
Software & Device Security

Q5 All devices used for business — laptops, phones, tablets — are set to automatically install security updates.

Q6 Active endpoint protection (antivirus/anti-malware) is installed and running on every business device.

Q7 We maintain an up-to-date inventory of every device that connects to our business network or systems.

Q8 Our office Wi-Fi is segmented — staff devices, guest devices, and operational systems are on separate networks.

3
Email & Communications Security

Q9 Our email domain is configured with SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records to prevent impersonation and email spoofing. ⚡ Critical Control

⚠️ Critical Gap: Without SPF/DKIM/DMARC, attackers can impersonate your domain — putting your customers and reputation at risk.

Q10 All staff have received phishing awareness training in the last 12 months and know how to identify suspicious emails.

Q11 We have a clear, documented process for staff to report suspicious emails — and staff actually use it.

Q12 All payment change requests received by email must be verbally verified before any action is taken — this is a documented rule.

4
Suppliers & Third-Party Access

Q13 We maintain a documented list of every supplier and vendor that has access to our systems, data, or network.

Q14 Our suppliers are contractually required to maintain security standards and notify us promptly in the event of a breach.

Q15 Third parties are only given the minimum access they need to do their job — no blanket admin access.

Q16 We regularly review who has third-party access to our systems and revoke it when it is no longer needed.

5
Backups & Business Continuity

Q17 We run automated daily backups of all critical business data to an offsite or cloud location. ⚡ Critical Control

⚠️ Critical Gap: Without daily offsite backups, a ransomware attack could permanently destroy your business data.

Q18 Our backups are isolated from our live systems — a ransomware attack could not reach and encrypt our backup copies.

Q19 We have successfully restored data from our backup in the last 12 months — not just run a backup, but actually tested restoration.

Q20 We have a documented business continuity plan that covers what to do if our systems are unavailable for 24–72 hours.
