FAQ

Ransomware readiness FAQ

Scope, cost, and what happens next.

How much does a ransomware readiness assessment cost?
A ransomware readiness assessment is typically €2,500–4,000 as a one-off flat fee, depending on the size of your environment. Use our estimator for a tailored figure.
What does the assessment cover?
Backup and recovery, network segmentation, endpoint protection, incident-response playbooks, privilege and lateral-movement exposure, and detection coverage — plus an optional tabletop exercise.
How long does it take?
Most ransomware readiness assessments take 1–2 weeks, including the review and a debrief.
Why is ransomware readiness so important?
Ransomware is the single most likely cause of major downtime. Most damage comes from poor backups and segmentation — exactly what this assessment fixes before an attack, not after.
Is this a penetration test?
No — it is a focused resilience and recovery assessment. It pairs well with a penetration test, which validates whether attackers can get in to begin with.
Do you test our backups?
We review your backup strategy and recovery capability, and can run or observe a recovery test to confirm backups actually restore.
More questions about this service
Do you provide a tabletop exercise?
Yes — an optional ransomware tabletop walks your team through a realistic scenario to test decision-making and the incident-response plan.
What do we receive?
A clear report scoring your readiness, a prioritised plan for fixes, and a debrief with technical and management stakeholders.
