Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions

From risk assessment to rapid response - we’re with you every step of the way.

Does a maturity assessment go beyond simple checklists?

No. Cythera's assessments offer more than just a checklist - they deliver deep insights into your people, processes, and technology. We provide clear findings and a prioritised roadmap to improve your cybersecurity posture.

How often should we assess our cyber security maturity?

Cythera recommends an annual cyber maturity assessment to monitor progress and adapt to change. It's also critical to reassess after significant events like mergers, major system upgrades, or new compliance obligations to ensure your security posture keeps pace.

What insights do we gain from the assessment?

You'll receive a structured report outlining your current maturity level, highlighting key areas of risk, and providing step-by-step recommendations to strengthen your cybersecurity and meet both compliance and business expectations.

What is a cyber maturity assessment?

This assessment benchmarks your organisation's current cybersecurity capabilities against established frameworks like ISO 27001 or the Essential Eight. It highlights strengths, uncovers weaknesses, and defines areas for growth to support better decision-making and long-term resilience.

Which standards or frameworks do Cythera assessments align to?

Whether you follow NIST CSF, ISO 27001, the Essential Eight or another model, we tailor our risk assessments to your environment. We can also align to sector-specific or internally developed frameworks to meet your compliance and operational goals.
