The Cyber Safety Toolkit is a practical self-assessment designed to help businesses understand and improve their cyber practices. Through a series of guided questions, businesses assess their current cyber practices while also developing practical policies where they do not already exist.

Based on the responses provided, the toolkit generates a personalised report that explains the potential impact cyber risks may have on the business and provides practical prevention and mitigation guidance to strengthen cyber resilience. It also generates supporting policies and response plans, giving businesses practical resources they can implement to better protect their information, systems, and day-to-day operations.

The self-assessment covers five key areas:

• Cyber Risk Assessment
• Cyber Vulnerability Assessment
• Critical Data Asset Policy
• Staff Cyber Safe Plan
• Cyber Security Incident Response

The Cyber Safety Toolkit has been developed to support businesses at all stages of their cyber maturity. Whether businesses are establishing their first cyber policies or strengthening existing practices, the toolkit provides practical guidance and resources that support continuous improvement over time.
