  • Write down what staff may paste into AI tools

    Problem
    Employees are using public AI tools with company and customer data.
    Why it matters
    It is the fastest-growing source of unmanaged data exposure in small businesses.
    The fix
    Generate a one-page AI usage policy, name the approved tools, and send it round.

  • Check whether your team's credentials are already leaked

    Problem
    Company email addresses appear in third-party breaches without you knowing.
    Why it matters
    Reused passwords turn someone else's breach into your incident.
    The fix
    Run your domain through a breach check and force resets on any hit.
    Breach Check

  • List the five vendors that would hurt most

    Problem
    Vendor inventories are usually a billing export, not a risk view.
    Why it matters
    Concentration risk is invisible until the vendor has the outage.
    The fix
    Write down the five vendors you cannot operate without and who owns each.

  • Confirm your last three leavers actually lost access

    Problem
    Offboarding usually covers email and forgets everything else.
    Why it matters
    Lingering access is one of the most common avoidable incident causes.
    The fix
    Walk the last three departures through every SaaS tool and revoke what remains.

  • Establish which framework actually applies to you

    Problem
    Compliance work often begins before scope is settled.
    Why it matters
    Out-of-scope work is the single largest source of wasted SMB compliance spend.
    The fix
    Answer a short scoping questionnaire and get the frameworks that genuinely apply.

  • Put your incident contact list somewhere reachable at 2am

    Problem
    Escalation details live in someone's inbox or head.
    Why it matters
    In an incident, the delay is almost always finding the right person.
    The fix
    List insurer, counsel, MSP and internal decision-makers with out-of-hours numbers.
