What is Cyber 101?

Cyber security can feel like a minefield of jargon and complicated frameworks. Cyber 101 is your starting point. It’s for small businesses that want security but don’t know where to begin. We cut through the noise to help you know where you stand—and what to do next.

We get it—you’re already spinning a dozen plates. Cyber 101 is designed to be quick to deliver, easy to understand, and actionable from day one. You don’t need a technical background, and you won’t be handed a pile of confusing spreadsheets.

Unbiased consultation

Pentest Cyber positions itself as a sole security service, an independent auditor, preventing the use of our knowledge as a lever to on-sell systems and services to our customers. A trusted source, permanently.

Policy templates

As part of Cyber 101, you receive a set of documents aimed at micro to medium-sized businesses. These documents are not just templates; they are fleshed-out working examples, such as an Asset Register, Security Policy, Incident Response, and more.

Why Cyber 101?

Most businesses rely on tech, but few are ready for the risks. Cyber 101 provides a Cyber Score, a Ransomware Resilience Rating, and a list of priority items based on your setup.

Email scams, weak passwords, outdated software, and unsecured Wi-Fi can quickly become serious problems.

Built by risk experts, it offers clear guidance to improve your security and help you prepare for certifications like Cyber Essentials.

No scare tactics. Minimum jargon.
