Clear decisions for your cybersecurity.

It is a remote con­ver­sa­tion with a LINARIS spe­cial­ist. We go over your busi­ness, your organ­i­sa­tion and your main dig­i­tal depen­den­cies. We also review how pre­pared you are in cyber­se­cu­ri­ty for the require­ments of your clients, your insur­er or NIS2, depend­ing on your sit­u­a­tion.

You receive a writ­ten sum­ma­ry of the con­ver­sa­tion, with an ini­tial esti­mate of your lev­el of readi­ness and your pri­or­i­ties.

It is free and with no com­mit­ment. The SME Cyber Assess­ment is a sep­a­rate engage­ment, which we only offer if it is use­ful to you.

We help you under­stand exact­ly what your clients require in cyber­se­cu­ri­ty, par­tic­u­lar­ly in sup­pli­er secu­ri­ty ques­tion­naires, iden­ti­fy your gaps and pri­or­i­ty actions, then pre­pare con­sis­tent, well-sup­port­ed answers.

To assess the legal impli­ca­tions of a ques­tion­naire answer that binds you, or of a cyber clause, we rec­om­mend con­sult­ing your lawyer.

Because the NIS2 Direc­tive is becom­ing the mar­ket bench­mark for cyber­se­cu­ri­ty. Organ­i­sa­tions sub­ject to it must secure their sup­ply chain and may pass their cyber require­ments on to their sup­pli­ers.

If you sup­ply a client that is sub­ject to NIS2, you may there­fore be indi­rect­ly affect­ed by its require­ments. If not, you are out­side its scope for now. But if you plan to expand into a sec­tor cov­ered by NIS2 or to work with a client sub­ject to the Direc­tive, it is wise to get ahead by align­ing your cyber­se­cu­ri­ty prac­tices with the rel­e­vant require­ments.

We bring a spe­cialised, inde­pen­dent per­spec­tive on SME cyber­se­cu­ri­ty, com­ple­ment­ing that of your IT ser­vice provider or IT depart­ment.

They look after the day-to-day per­for­mance, avail­abil­i­ty and main­te­nance of your infor­ma­tion sys­tems. We assess cyber risks across your whole busi­ness and help you define the right mea­sures and steer their imple­men­ta­tion.

We help you steer the pro­tec­tion of your busi­ness and coor­di­nate all the teams involved, not just IT.

Both areas of exper­tise are essen­tial, com­ple­men­tary and inde­pen­dent of each oth­er.

Soft­ware helps doc­u­ment and track the large amount of com­plex infor­ma­tion a NIS2 com­pli­ance project involves, and we use such tools our­selves. But NIS2 com­pli­ance is not just about fill­ing in a ques­tion­naire. You have to decide on pri­or­i­ties, get your teams on board and imple­ment the nec­es­sary mea­sures.

Soft­ware can also encour­age self-assess­ment, with the risk of lack­ing per­spec­tive and over- or under-invest­ing in cyber­se­cu­ri­ty.

LINARIS sup­ports your NIS2 project by pro­vid­ing that out­side per­spec­tive, to rank pri­or­i­ties, inform deci­sions and coor­di­nate actions.

No. Our cyber­se­cu­ri­ty sup­port engage­ments are designed for SME lead­ers, and we speak in man­age­ment terms, not tech­ni­cal ones. Some steps may call for occa­sion­al tech­ni­cal dis­cus­sions with your IT man­ag­er or IT ser­vice provider.

We speak sev­er­al lan­guages : those of senior man­age­ment, tech­ni­cal cyber­se­cu­ri­ty and organ­i­sa­tion. We bridge these worlds so that every­one under­stands what is at stake and can con­tribute.

We help man­age­ment struc­ture and coor­di­nate the project, with­out tak­ing over its lead­er­ship role.

No. Our approach relies main­ly on tar­get­ed inter­views, an on-site vis­it and a review of your exist­ing prac­tices. It is designed to fit entire­ly around your oper­a­tions.

The price of a cyber­se­cu­ri­ty assess­ment (or audit) depends on the size of your com­pa­ny, the com­plex­i­ty of your activ­i­ties and of your infor­ma­tion sys­tem, and how urgent your needs are. You receive a clear quote before any work begins, with no hid­den costs.
