Cybersecurity Readiness Scorecard

A cybersecurity readiness assessment checks how prepared your business is to prevent, spot and recover from a cyber attack. This scorecard covers 6 areas: identity, device and email protection, detection and response, people, resilience and governance. Each answer feeds an overall score out of 100 and a score for each area.

Microsoft Secure Score is a rating built into every Microsoft 365 tenant. It measures how many of Microsoft's recommended security settings you have switched on, and ranks each improvement by the risk it reduces. Reviewing it monthly gives you a simple, measurable way to track progress.

EDR (endpoint detection and response) watches laptops, desktops and servers for suspicious behaviour such as ransomware. ITDR (identity threat detection and response) watches your user accounts, spotting stolen logins, impossible travel and suspicious inbox rules in Microsoft 365. Attackers target both, so strong protection covers both.

NIS2 is the EU cybersecurity directive that Ireland is bringing into law through the National Cyber Security Bill. It covers medium and large organisations in sectors including manufacturing, food production and distribution, pharmaceuticals, medical devices, transport and digital services. Suppliers to those organisations also feel its effect through contract requirements. Penalties for essential entities reach €10 million or 2% of global turnover.
