BEFORE YOU START

A useful first check.
No prep needed.

For founders and small teams using business email, cloud tools, or a customer-facing product.

Do I need technical knowledge?

No. Answer what you know about your business today. Choose “Not Sure” when you need your technical lead to confirm something.

Will you scan my startup or ask for access?

No. This is a self-assessment. We do not connect to your accounts, scan your systems, or ask for passwords.

Is the score a security certification?

No. It reflects seven self-reported basics, not verified security or breach likelihood. A high score can still hide important weaknesses.

Do I have to share my email?

No. View your results, copy your action plan, and download the checklist for free. Contact details are only needed if you request a review.

doesn’t need to be complicated.
