Cyber readiness that survives a real Monday

Most small businesses don’t need another buzzword deck. They need to know what to fix first, where records actually live, and how to show an insurer or board that cyber hygiene is real — not checkbox theatre.

Mr CyberSafe comes to the business. We complete CyberCert’s SMB 1001 gap assessment together, then work toward a certificate at a level that fits. If you already have an IT provider, it’s an independent second look. If you manage your own IT, it’s a clear check-over.

SMB 1001 tiers (overview)

• Bronze — baseline essential controls; director self-attested where used with CyberCert.
• Silver — broader control set; commonly treated as a sensible minimum for many small businesses.
• Gold / Platinum / Diamond — deeper tooling, monitoring, and independent pathways for higher consequence environments.

Fixes can be done by Mr CyberSafe for a fee, or by you, or by your IT provider. When we work together, the certificate is included in the quote.

What “good” looks like

Controls that survive a real Monday

Identity & access

• Clear rules for who can access business systems, and how accounts are reviewed when people leave.
• Strong authentication for email and admin tools; minimise shared passwords.
• Segment admin / client / personal use on endpoints that handle sensitive data.

Detection & response

• Patching rhythm, supported OS baseline, and an incident triage line (who to call first).
• Email authentication (e.g. DMARC journey) and phishing rehearsal for high-risk roles.
• Optional paths toward EDR and supplier inventories as risk warrants.

Partners

Cyber attestations and SMB 1001:2026-aligned certification flows are often delivered with CyberCert partner tooling (partners.cybercert.ai). We stay vendor-neutral on stack choices—our job is defensible evidence and board-ready language.
