Evaluate Your Cybersecurity Posture
Our free IT security assessment survey helps you evaluate your business's cybersecurity posture by answering key questions about your IT security practices, policies, and infrastructure.
After completing the survey, you'll receive personalized recommendations and a security score to help identify areas for improvement. The assessment methodology is based on industry best practices and security frameworks, ensuring that the evaluation covers all critical aspects of IT security that small businesses need to address.
Understanding your current security posture is the first step toward improving it. Our survey provides a structured way to assess your security practices across multiple domains, identify gaps, and prioritize improvements based on risk and business impact. This assessment helps you make informed decisions about where to invest in security improvements.
Assessment Methodology
Our IT security assessment survey uses a comprehensive methodology that evaluates your security posture across multiple domains. The assessment covers network security, endpoint protection, email security, backup and recovery, access control, and security policies. Each domain is evaluated through a series of questions that assess both technical controls and organizational practices.
The assessment methodology is based on industry-standard security frameworks and best practices, ensuring that the evaluation is comprehensive and aligned with recognized security standards. Questions are designed to be clear and actionable, helping you understand not just what security measures you have in place, but also how effective they are and where improvements are needed.
The assessment process is designed to be straightforward and time-efficient, typically taking 15-30 minutes to complete. You can complete the survey at your own pace, and you can save your progress and return to complete it later if needed. The survey is designed to be accessible to business owners and managers who may not have extensive technical knowledge, with questions that focus on practical security practices rather than technical details.
Report Details and Action Planning
After completing the survey, you'll receive a comprehensive assessment report that includes your security score, detailed findings for each security domain, and prioritized recommendations for improvement. The report provides a clear picture of your current security posture, highlighting both strengths and areas that need attention.
The assessment report includes specific recommendations for each identified security gap, with explanations of why each recommendation matters and how it will improve your security posture. Recommendations are prioritized based on risk level and business impact, helping you focus on the most critical improvements first. The report also includes guidance on implementation, including estimated effort and resources needed for each recommendation.
Action planning is a critical component of the assessment process. The report includes an action plan template that helps you organize and track security improvements. The action plan breaks down recommendations into specific, actionable steps with timelines and priorities. This structured approach helps you make steady progress on security improvements while managing other business priorities. You can use the action plan to track progress over time and reassess your security posture periodically to measure improvement.
