New Year is always a time for fresh starts and ambitious goals. After the Christmas period of reflection and (hopefully) relaxation, many of us feel inspired to tackle something new.
Maybe you’ve set a New Year’s resolution to finally get your business’s cyber security in order. Or perhaps you’re strategising ahead of the next budget cycle, looking for ways to fortify your organisation against digital threats. Whatever your goal, th4ts3cur1ty.company is here to help you turn those resolutions into results.
One way we make it easy to take stock of your current security status is through our Cyber MOT – a service designed to give you a clear and comprehensive understanding of your organisation’s cyber defences.
What exactly is a Cyber MOT?
Think of it like a car MOT but for your business’s cyber security! Just as a car MOT checks all the critical components to ensure your vehicle is safe and roadworthy, our Cyber MOT examines the most important areas of your organisation’s security posture to ensure it’s up to industry standards. We provide you with a clear picture of your strengths, weaknesses, and any areas that need immediate attention.
But why should you start with a Cyber MOT? Well, because diving into new security tools or services without first assessing your current setup is like buying a new car without checking if it fits in your garage. It’s not just a waste of time and money – it could also leave you vulnerable in areas you didn’t realise were at risk.
How does it work?
Our Cyber MOT is tailored to your business’s unique needs. Here’s how it breaks down:
- Initial assessment: We start by asking a series of targeted questions about your current security setup and goals. Don’t worry – this has a minimal impact on you and your team.
- Comprehensive review: Our expert consultants dive into the details, assessing your organisation against 10 critical areas, including Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery, Data Protection, and Incident Response.
- Comprehensive interview: We then discuss each of these areas with you, to ensure we have the right understanding of your answers and of your business and can make tailored recommendations.
- Grading and recommendations: Each area is graded as Excellent, Good, Fair, or Poor. Alongside these grades, you’ll receive actionable recommendations based on industry best practices. This focused roadmap ensures you know where to allocate your resources for maximum impact.
Who would benefit from a Cyber MOT?
Our Cyber MOT is designed for businesses at every stage of their cyber security journey. Here are just a few examples of who might benefit:
- Seasoned IT pros seeking Board buy-in: If you’re aware of gaps in your defences but need an external assessment to add credibility to your budget requests, a Cyber MOT provides the hard data you need.
- Newly-appointed Security Leaders: Stepping into a new role? A Cyber MOT offers a fast and thorough way to understand your organisation’s current posture, so you can hit the ground running with a strategic plan.
- IT Managers with new responsibilities: Many IT managers find themselves unexpectedly tasked with cyber security. If you’re not sure where to start, the Cyber MOT is an excellent way to get a clear picture and a prioritized action plan.
- Investment and Private Equity firms: One of our customers is a Private Equity firm, who undertakes a Cyber MOT with each of their investments. This assessment then provides recommendations for any critical remediations which can be factored into their 100-day plan with their portfolio. Here’s what they had to say:
“Cyber security is high on our risk radar and so we need to ensure we are proactive and identify any cyber vulnerabilities, along with the preventative steps required to remedy these risks, as a priority. Cyber security is critical for us as investors and for the management teams of the businesses we partner with.” – Portfolio Director.
