10-Minute Micro-Audit • Free Readiness Score

Small Business Cyber Readiness & Risk Self-Assessment

Answer the control questions, see a readiness score, and see which controls still need evidence.

  1. 1

    Self-assessment

    Answer questions about accounts, devices, backups, and who can access them.

  2. 2

    Get an immediate 0–100 readiness score and control breakdown across core security domains.

  3. 3

    Prioritized Action Plan

    Access an optional remediation punch-list, attach evidence, and share read-only progress with your broker.

Begin the assessment
  • Data Never Sold
  • No Credit Card Required
  • Nothing to install
  • Private

    Your answers and uploaded evidence are not sold to third-party lead aggregators.

  • Runs in the browser

    The check does not install software on office computers.

Paid Evidence Review ($750)

Completing the assessment does not guarantee carrier approval, policy issuance, or a specific premium quote. A Certificate of Cyber Readiness confirms the Cyber Ready Pro Core Security Standards. It is not a coverage guarantee.

The problem

Carriers are done accepting a hopeful questionnaire.

Coverage is being dropped, premiums are climbing, and applications are denied for simple misconfigurations.

  • Confusing Underwriting Questionnaires

    The questions are written for security teams. One unsure answer is scored like a missing control.

  • Risk of Policy Cancellation

    A failed control at renewal can mean a non-renewal, not a friendly follow-up.

  • Expensive Consultant Fees

    A traditional readiness project can cost more than the policy you are trying to keep.

How it works

Three steps from application risk to a document your broker can use.

  1. 01

    Take the Assessment.

    Answer the control questions for the office network.

  2. 02

    Get Your Readiness Score.

    See your readiness score and which controls still need work. This is not a carrier decision.

  3. 03

    Remediate or Certify.

    Get an exact punch-list to fix failures, or instantly download your Cyber Readiness Certificate to hand to your broker.

Aligned with strict underwriting standards for top-tier carriers.

The certificate your broker can hold.

A perfect score produces a one-page Certificate of Cyber Readiness. Anything short of a pass produces a remediation report instead.

How verification works

Three proof areas underwriters examine

Each answer is converted into a status and an evidence request—without implying coverage or carrier approval.

  • Illustration of cloud identity, multifactor authentication, and access protection

    Pillar 1 · Identity

    MFA and admin separation

    We map email, remote-access, and privileged-account controls to the exports or screenshots an underwriter can review.

    Identity and access evidence

  • Illustration of an immutable backup vault connected to protected endpoints

    Pillar 2 · Resilience

    EDR, patching, and backups

    Endpoint coverage, patch cadence, immutable backup configuration, and restore-test records are separated into provable control rows.

    Recovery and endpoint evidence

  • Illustration of a security evidence binder and verification dashboard

    Pillar 3 · Evidence

    Broker-ready packet

    The final packet brings the control matrix, priority fixes, and human-reviewed memo together for broker handoff.

    Clear status for every control
