About the check

What this check measures

The check asks 21 quick questions and takes about five minutes. It gives you two scores out of 100, your top three fixes and the funding programs you are likely to qualify for.

The cyber score is based on the Canadian Centre for Cyber Security’s Baseline Cyber Security Controls for Small and Medium Organizations, the federal government’s own starting list for businesses like yours. The AI-readiness score follows BDC’s six-step AI checklist. Using public Canadian sources means you can check the reasoning yourself.

It is written for owners and managers of small and mid-sized businesses, not IT specialists. If a question uses a term you do not know, that is useful to learn too: it often points to one of your top fixes.

Questions about the check

Is it really free?

Yes. The check, the scores, the fixes and the funding list are free, and you do not need to give us your name or email to see them.

Do you store my answers?

No. Everything runs in your browser and nothing is sent or saved. Use “Print / save as PDF” if you want to keep your results.

What are the funding programs?

Programs that can help Canadian small businesses pay for technology, security and AI projects. The list is a guide based on your size and revenue: each program sets its own rules and makes the final decision. We can help you prepare the plan an application needs.

What happens in the free review?

A 30-minute call where we go through your answers with you, confirm which fixes matter most, and then send you a short written report.
