Twelve honest questions across endpoint, cloud, identity, and incident response. Get an instant posture score, a risk rating, and a gap-by-gap breakdown of what an attacker would find first.

Part 1 of 3
Answer honestly — each “No” or “Unsure” is an open door for attackers.
Are all employee devices (laptops, mobiles, servers) protected by real-time endpoint security with behavioural threat detection — not just traditional antivirus?
⚠Risk: Unprotected endpoints are the #1 ransomware entry point.
Does your endpoint solution automatically isolate a compromised device from the network within seconds of detecting anomalous behaviour — without manual intervention?
⚠Risk: Without auto-isolation, ransomware can spread to every system in minutes.
Do you have real-time phishing protection that inspects links and attachments before they reach your staff — including in Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace?
⚠Risk: 91% of breaches start with a phishing email.
Can you prove your endpoint security is working today — with a live dashboard showing protection status, alerts, and device health across every user?
⚠Risk: You cannot protect what you cannot see.
Part 2 of 3
Answer honestly — each “No” or “Unsure” is an open door for attackers.
Is your cloud environment (AWS, Azure, Microsoft 365) continuously monitored for misconfigurations, suspicious activity, and compliance drift — 24 hours a day?
⚠Risk: Misconfigured cloud storage is a leading cause of data exposure.
Do you have a SIEM correlating logs from across your entire environment — network, endpoints, cloud, and identity?
⚠Risk: Without log correlation, multi-stage attacks go undetected for an average of 194 days.
When your SIEM or security platform triggers an alert, does it automatically initiate a response — rather than requiring manual investigation?
⚠Risk: Manual response adds hours; automated SOAR responds in seconds.
Can you produce a real-time compliance report mapped to ASD Essential 8, ISO 27001, NIST, or SOC 2 — at any moment, without manual effort?
⚠Risk: Fines and contract loss from non-compliance can exceed the cost of a breach.
Part 3 of 3
Answer honestly — each “No” or “Unsure” is an open door for attackers.
Are all systems, applications, and cloud assets continuously scanned for vulnerabilities — prioritised by real-world exploitability, not just severity scores?
⚠Risk: Unpatched vulnerabilities are exploited in most SMB ransomware attacks within 48 hours.
Do you monitor all user identities — including service accounts, third-party access, and non-human identities — for unusual behaviour and privilege misuse?
⚠Risk: Identity-based attacks now account for over 60% of breaches globally.
If a ransomware attack started right now, could your team detect, contain, and recover within minutes — with automated rollback and backup restoration built in?
⚠Risk: Without automated response, average recovery takes 22 days and costs $1M–$3M.
Do your executives receive a plain-English security posture report — showing trust score, top risks, and compliance status — at least monthly?
⚠Risk: Boards increasingly face personal liability for inadequate cybersecurity governance.
