How the score works

This is an educational self-assessment of readiness gaps. It is not an audit, penetration test, certification, compliance determination, or prediction of whether a breach will occur.

How the score works

Each question has a weight from 1 to 3 based on how much the control typically reduces common small-business risks. Yes earns full credit, Partly earns half, and No or Not sure earn none, because a control nobody can confirm can't be relied on. Not-applicable answers are left out. Your score is earned points ÷ possible points × 100.

Bands: 85–100 Low gap · 65–84 Moderate · 40–64 High · 0–39 Very high. No MFA on email, no separate backup, or no payment call-back rule are flagged as priority gaps at any score.
