Question 1

Is the security scorecard really free?

Accepted Answer

Yes — completely free with no obligation. Simply IT offers this tool to help North Central Florida businesses understand their cybersecurity posture. There is no cost and no requirement to become a client.

Question 2

How accurate is the scorecard?

Accepted Answer

The scorecard is based on the 10 most critical cybersecurity controls for small businesses identified by frameworks including NIST, CIS Controls, and the FTC Safeguards Rule. While it is not a substitute for a full professional security assessment it gives an accurate picture of your foundational security posture.

Question 3

What happens after I submit my results?

Accepted Answer

A Simply IT team member will follow up within one business day to review your results and discuss any gaps identified. There is no pressure — the follow-up is informational and you are under no obligation.

Question 4

We already have an IT company — should we still take the scorecard?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. The scorecard is a great way to verify that your current IT provider has the right controls in place. If you answer No to several questions it may be worth a second opinion.

Question 5

What if we score poorly?

Accepted Answer

A low score is not unusual — most small businesses have gaps in at least a few of these areas. The important thing is knowing where you stand so you can prioritize improvements. Simply IT can help you address each gap systematically.
