Whats In the Checklist?

• 1.
  Password Security — Are you using unique passwords + a password manager? (70% of breaches start here)

• 4.
  Business Email Security — Do you have SPF, DKIM, DMARC on your domain? (stops spoofing)

• 8.
  Multi-Factor Authentication — Is MFA enabled on email, banking, and cloud apps?
• 9.
  GDPR Compliance — Do you have a privacy policy, data processing agreements with suppliers?
• 10.
  IT Continuity Plan — If your main computer died today, could you keep trading? (most SMEs cant)
