Readiness check

Is your organisation ready for ransomware?

Eight questions, about two minutes. Your answers stay in your browser: nothing is sent anywhere unless you choose to attach your result when you register your interest.

1. Locked backupIs at least one copy of your backup locked (immutable), so ransomware or a stolen admin login can't delete or change it?
2. Kept apartIs that copy kept outside your everyday systems, not in the same Microsoft 365 or Google account or on the same network?
3. Restore testedIn the last 12 months, have you restored files from it and checked they opened?
4. Telling peopleIf email and chat were down tomorrow, could you reach every member of staff within an hour?
5. Somewhere to workIs there somewhere clean for staff to work while your main systems are investigated?
6. Signing inCould they sign in there without your normal accounts?
7. Who decidesIs it written down who declares an incident, and who you call first (your insurer, your IT provider, and the ICO if personal data is involved)?
8. PractisedHave you ever practised it, even as a 30-minute walk-through?
