Free Basic Cyber-Security Check · ~15–20 minutes
Review the most important security and compliance requirements in a clear digital workflow and gain a fast, understandable overview of your current security posture.
Our platform turns the Cyber-Security Basic Check into a simple, traceable and practical entry point for evaluating your security posture.
The Basic Cyber-Security Check provides a free, low-threshold entry point for reviewing the most important security and compliance requirements in a structured way. The 39 control questions are explicitly mapped to ISO 27001:2022, NIS2, the Swiss ICT Minimum Standard, and the revised Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (revFADP/GDPR) — giving you not only a baseline assessment, but also a clear alignment with recognized frameworks.
The Challenge
Many organizations know cybersecurity matters, but they lack a simple, understandable and realistic baseline. As a result, it remains unclear how well basic security requirements are actually fulfilled.
Our Solution
Our platform makes your current security posture visible quickly and provides a structured overview of the most important basics.
Run the Cyber-Security Basic Check efficiently and gain an initial but reliable overview without major setup effort.
Assess the 10 areas and 39 control questions in a clearly guided digital workflow instead of scattered lists or documents.
Every question is mapped to ISO 27001, NIS2, the Swiss ICT Minimum Standard, and revFADP/GDPR. At a glance, you see which frameworks the basic check already covers.
Keep answers, comments, evidence and assessments in one place.
Make your current security posture visible on a clear scale and easier to communicate internally.
Make strengths, weaknesses and action areas easier to understand and faster to communicate, including to management and responsible stakeholders.
See more quickly which basic security measures should be improved first.
Create a shared working basis for IT, security, compliance, management and other stakeholders.
Keep track of changes, developments and previous assessments, and document progress clearly over time.
Use the Basic Check not just once, but as a repeatable process for continuously improving your security level.
Register for free on our platform and then start the free Cyber-Security Basic Check right away.
Our platform turns the Basic Cyber-Security Check into a clear, digital, and traceable entry point for assessing your current security posture. Because the 39 questions are mapped to ISO 27001, NIS2, the Swiss ICT Minimum Standard, and revFADP/GDPR, the transition to a deeper assessment is seamless — ICT Minimum Standard, ISO 27001:2022, or NIST CSF 2.0.
The Cyber-Security Basic Check is a free entry-level check for evaluating basic security and compliance requirements. It covers 10 areas and 39 control questions and delivers a fast, understandable overview of the current security posture — no subscription required.
Yes. The Cyber-Security Basic Check is completely free and requires no subscription. It serves as the entry point into the SCMC platform. For more comprehensive assessments (ICT, ISO 27001, NIST CSF 2.0, etc.), annual subscriptions are available.
The check evaluates basic security requirements across 10 areas using 39 control questions. Results include an understandable overview of the security posture, identified weaknesses and prioritized initial action areas.
Each of the 39 questions is mapped to ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A controls, NIS2 Article 21(2), the Swiss ICT Minimum Standard (along the NIST CSF functions Identify/Protect/Detect/Respond/Recover), and — where relevant — to the revised Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (revFADP) and the EU GDPR. This gives you not just a baseline assessment, but also an early orientation for future in-depth assessments.
The Basic Check is suitable for organizations that want to quickly and clearly assess how well basic security requirements are fulfilled — as a pragmatic entry point without prior knowledge.
After the Basic Check, you receive an evaluation with identified weaknesses and action areas. For a deeper assessment, you can move directly to one of the full assessment modules — ICT, ISO 27001, NIST CSF 2.0, ICS or Risk.
The Basic Check covers 10 areas and 39 control questions. It is deliberately designed as a low-threshold entry point and can be completed without extensive preparation.
Yes. The platform stores all results with versioning, keeping progress and changes in security posture traceable over time.
The guides are in German.
