Ransomware Readiness Assessment

Free Ransomware Readiness Assessment

QUICK ANSWER

Answer 10 quick questions about your backups, endpoints, email, access controls, and response plan to get an instant ransomware-readiness score (0–100%) and a prioritised list of the gaps to fix. Free, no signup, runs in your browser.

Ransomware remains the most disruptive cyber threat facing Egyptian businesses — and most victims discover their gaps only after an attack. This free self-assessment checks the ten controls that actually stop ransomware, then shows you where you stand and what to fix first. See our full ransomware protection guide for the detail behind each control.

1. Do you keep at least one backup copy that is offline or immutable — one that ransomware cannot reach or encrypt?

2. Have you successfully tested restoring from a backup within the last 6 months?

3. Is EDR or MDR (not just traditional antivirus) deployed on all endpoints and servers?

4. Is multi-factor authentication (MFA) enforced on email, remote/VPN access, and admin accounts?

5. Is inbound email filtered for phishing and malicious attachments and links?

6. Are operating systems and key software patched promptly?

7. Is your network segmented to limit an attacker’s lateral movement?

8. Is someone monitoring security alerts 24/7, including nights and weekends?

9. Do your staff receive regular phishing-awareness training?

10. Do you have a written and tested incident-response plan for a ransomware attack?

Why Ransomware Readiness Matters

No single product stops ransomware — attackers exploit whatever layer is weakest, whether that is an unpatched server, a reused password, a phishing email, or a backup they can encrypt. The organisations that survive an attack are the ones that layered their defences before it happened: filtered email, EDR or MDR on every endpoint, enforced MFA, network segmentation, and immutable backups they had tested restoring.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is my ransomware readiness score calculated? The tool scores 10 defence areas — from backups and EDR to MFA and staff training — weighting the highest-impact controls most heavily, then gives you a percentage and highlights your specific gaps.

Is this ransomware assessment really free? Yes. It is completely free, runs entirely in your browser, and needs no signup — your answers are never sent anywhere or stored.

What is the most important defence against ransomware? There is no single fix — ransomware is stopped by layers. But immutable or offline backups you have tested restoring, combined with EDR/MDR and enforced MFA, are the highest-impact controls.

What should I do after getting my score? Fix the gaps the tool highlights, starting with the highest-weighted ones (backups, EDR/MDR, MFA, email security). For a full review, contact our Cairo-based team.
