0 of 12 answered
Backups

Do you keep backups that are offline or immutable — not reachable from your main network if it gets compromised?

Have you actually tested restoring from backup within the last 6 months?

Access & Identity

Is multi-factor authentication (MFA) enforced for email, VPN and remote access?

Do you enforce unique, strong passwords and avoid shared admin accounts?

Patching & Exposure

Are operating system and critical software patches applied within 30 days of release?

Do you know exactly which systems you have exposed to the internet (VPN, RDP, remote access tools)?

Endpoint & Network

Do all devices run modern endpoint protection or EDR, not just legacy antivirus?

Is your network segmented so a single compromised device can't reach your servers, backups and every other department?

Email & Awareness

Does your email domain have SPF, DKIM and DMARC configured and enforced?

Do staff receive regular phishing and security awareness training?

Incident Response

Do you have a written incident response plan that names who does what during an attack?

Do you have cyber insurance or a retained incident response provider on call?

Want a real assessment, not just a self-check?
