Find out where your technology actually stands

Seven questions across the fundamentals that affect every growing business — security, backups, devices, access, vendors, and ownership. Immediate results. No sign-up required to see your score.

0 of 7 questions answered

1. Do you require multi-factor authentication (MFA) for email and key business systems?

MFA is the single highest-impact security control for most small businesses. If it is not in place for email, your accounts are significantly more vulnerable than they need to be.

2. Are business-critical files and systems backed up automatically?

Manual backups get skipped. Automatic backups create a reliable recovery point. The question is not whether backups exist, but whether they happen consistently without depending on anyone to remember.

3. Do employees primarily use company-provided devices for work?

Personal devices used for work are harder to secure, manage, and wipe. Company-provided devices give the business control over its data and software environment.

4. If employees use company-provided devices, are those devices secured and managed centrally?

A device that is not centrally managed cannot be patched, monitored, or remotely wiped consistently. Central management is the difference between a managed fleet and a group of independent endpoints.

5. When someone leaves the company, is their access removed quickly and consistently?

Former employee accounts with active access are one of the most common and preventable security gaps. A consistent offboarding checklist closes this automatically.

6. Is your business using business-grade network and security equipment?

Consumer-grade routers and switches are not built for business use. Business-grade equipment provides better security controls, reliability, and the ability to manage and monitor your network.

7. Do you know who owns your IT systems, vendor relationships, renewals, and admin accounts?

If the answer depends on asking a specific person or searching through emails, ownership is not documented. Undocumented ownership creates risk when people leave or vendors change.
