Current Security Posture
How would you describe your organization’s security program today?
Be honest — this determines how aggressive your 30-day priorities need to be.
We don’t really have one
Security is handled reactively. No formal policies, no dedicated security staff, tools are whatever came with the OS or default SaaS settings.
Starting from zero
We have the basics
Antivirus, maybe MFA on some systems, a firewall. Someone owns security part-time. No formal program, but not completely dark.
Ad hoc
We’re building it out
We have policies, MFA enforced, some security tooling. We’re aware of gaps but haven’t systematically addressed them.
Developing
We have a defined program
Documented policies, dedicated security staff or MSSP, tooling across endpoint/identity/cloud, regular reviews. Looking to mature further.
Defined
Risk Profile
What are your top concerns? Select all that apply.
These drive prioritization across your phases — the roadmap weights initiatives by your stated risk areas.
Ransomware / malware
Business email compromise
Data theft / exfiltration
Insider threat
Compliance / audit failure
Third-party / vendor risk
Cloud misconfiguration
AI / shadow AI exposure
Incident response readiness
Software supply chain
Resources
What resources are available for security this year?
Determines whether recommendations lean toward tooling, people, services, or process-first approaches.
Minimal budget
Under $25K. Security competes with many other priorities.
Process-first approach
Modest investment
$25K – $100K. Room for targeted tooling and some outside help.
Selective tooling
Committed investment
$100K – $500K. Serious about building a real program.
Full program build
Significant investment
$500K+. Security is a strategic priority with executive backing.
