## Let’s talk about your security

## What we assess

Questions span the five NIST Cybersecurity Framework functions, aligned with NCA requirements.

### Identify

Policy, ownership, roles, risk management and third-party risk.

### Protect

Awareness, phishing, assets, technology, access, email, data, change and patching.

### Detect

Threat detection and how security alerts are monitored.

### Respond

Whether incidents would be handled with confidence.

### Recover

Recovery readiness, backups and restore testing.

## What cybersecurity maturity means

Maturity describes how well your security practices are defined, followed, measured and improved. Having a firewall is not maturity. A documented process for managing firewall rules, followed consistently, reviewed regularly and improved over time, is.

## Maturity levels explained

Most models, including the SAMA Cyber Security Framework, use similar levels:

| Level | Name | What it looks like |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 0 | Non-existent | No practice in place. |
| 1 | Ad hoc | Security happens informally and depends on individuals. |
| 2 | Repeatable but informal | Some practices repeat, but they are not documented or approved. |
| 3 | Structured and formalised | Practices are documented, approved and followed. The minimum expected for SAMA-regulated organisations. |
| 4 | Managed and measurable | Practices are measured with metrics and reviewed regularly. |
| 5 | Adaptive | Practices improve continuously based on data and changing threats. |

## Self-assessment or expert assessment?

This online assessment gives you a quick, useful snapshot. For audit preparation, an expert-led assessment adds interviews, document review and control testing, producing evidence regulators accept. That is part of our GRC consulting service.
