Cyber Essentials Assessment Tool
Cyber Essentials Readiness Check – Plain English Edition
Not sure if your organisation is ready for Cyber Essentials certification?
Cut through the jargon and get a straight answer.
Most Cyber Essentials guidance reads like it was written by someone who does not understand small businesses. Acronyms, assumptions, technical language.
None of that here.
This is 20 straightforward questions in plain English — no acronyms, no technical gobbledygook — designed for the person actually running the organisation, without taking up your valuable time.
How it works:
Answer 20 questions about how your organisation currently manages things like software, devices, user accounts and internet access. Each question is written in plain language with clear yes/no options. The whole thing takes about five to 10 minutes.
At the end, you’ll get a personalised PDF report that tells you exactly where you stand, what you’re already doing right, and — more usefully — what you need to fix before you apply for certification.
No waffle, no padding, no sales just a clear action list you can actually hand to someone and say “sort this.”
Who’s it for?
Any organisation thinking about Cyber Essentials certification who wants to know what they’re walking into before they pay for an assessment. Particularly useful for small and medium businesses, charities, anyone who isn’t totally sure where to start and cant seem to get a clear answer that doesn’t involve an invoice.
