Quick tips

Watch before you take the self-check

Short videos on the habits that matter most.

0 of 10 answered
1Multi-factor authentication

Everyone signs in to email and key apps with a second step (MFA), not just a password.

2Tested backups

Backups are kept off-site or in the cloud, and someone has tested a restore in the last year.

3Modern endpoint protection

Every computer runs managed security software that is watched by someone, not just basic antivirus.

4Patching

Operating systems, firewalls and key software are patched on a schedule, and someone checks that it happened.

5Phishing awareness

Staff get security awareness training and phishing tests at least once a year.

6Offboarding

When someone leaves, their accounts, devices and access are closed the same day by a written process.

7Password management

Staff use a company password manager instead of reusing passwords or saving them in browsers.

8Incident plan

There is a written plan for what to do, and who to call, if ransomware or a data breach hits.

9Firewall and network

Your firewall is current, monitored and reviewed, and guest Wi-Fi is separate from company systems.

10Cyber insurance and compliance

You know what your cyber insurer and any regulations require, and can show you meet them.

Why these ten

The basics most incidents get through

Stop stolen passwords

MFA, a password manager and good offboarding close the most common doors.

Recover when it goes wrong

Tested, protected backups and an incident plan decide how bad a bad day gets.

Catch threats early

Managed protection, patching and a monitored firewall keep small problems small.
