What the Free IT Health Check Covers

We work through the same checklist for every business, so nothing important is skipped:

  • Antivirus and malware protection. Whether every computer is protected, whether the protection is current and whether anything is switched off or out of date.
  • System updates and patching. Whether Windows, macOS and key applications are receiving security updates, and which devices have fallen behind.
  • Backups. What is backed up, where the copies live and whether a restore would actually work when you need one.
  • Network. Your router, firewall, Wi-Fi and the equipment connecting your office, reviewed for age, setup and reliability.
  • Cybersecurity. Passwords, multi-factor authentication (MFA), email protection and who has access to what.
  • Network security. How your network is protected from the outside, how guests and devices are separated and where the gaps are.

What You Get: A Findings Report and an Action Plan

  • A plain-English findings report. What we looked at, what we found and why it matters, without jargon.
  • A prioritized action plan. The fixes ordered by importance, so you can decide what to do first, whether you work with us or not.
