What You Need to Know
What Is a Cybersecurity Risk Assessment?
A cybersecurity risk assessment is a way to figure out where your business is exposed before someone else does. It looks at your entire IT setup – your network, your devices, how your employees use email, how your data gets backed up, and whether your systems are patched and monitored. The goal is simple: find the holes, rank them by how dangerous they are, and fix the worst ones first.
At Kraft Business Systems, we’ve been doing this for Michigan companies since 1994. We’ve seen everything from a ransomware attack that locked down a 50-person manufacturing floor to a phishing email that nearly cost a healthcare clinic its HIPAA certification. Every single one of those situations could’ve been caught earlier with a proper assessment.
Our free online assessment above gives you a quick snapshot. But a full cybersecurity risk assessment goes deeper. We look at your firewall configurations, test your backup recovery, review your access controls, check for compliance gaps, and run vulnerability scans across your entire network.
Why Michigan Businesses Need an IT Security Assessment in 2026
Michigan is home to thousands of small and mid-sized businesses in manufacturing, healthcare, legal, and finance. Every one of those industries is a target. Manufacturing companies working with defense contracts need CMMC compliance. Healthcare practices need HIPAA. Law firms and CPAs handle sensitive client data every day.
The problem is most business owners think they’re covered because they have antivirus software and a firewall. That’s like locking your front door but leaving every window open. A proper IT security assessment checks the whole building.
In 2026, threats have gotten more targeted. Attackers use AI to craft phishing emails that look exactly like messages from your bank, your vendor, or even your boss. Ransomware groups specifically target Michigan businesses because they know small companies are less likely to have a security operations center watching their systems 24/7.
What Our Assessment Covers
Our cybersecurity and IT risk assessment looks at five critical areas that determine how secure your business really is:
🔐
Access and Authentication
Multi-factor authentication, password policies, user permissions, and who has access to what across your organization.
💾
Data Protection and Backup
Backup frequency, disaster recovery testing, email security, encryption, and how your data would survive a ransomware attack.
🖥️
Endpoint and Network Security
Firewall configuration, endpoint detection and response, intrusion monitoring, and how your devices connect to your network.
👥
People and Process
Employee security training, phishing awareness, incident response planning, and whether your team knows what to do when something goes wrong.
📋
Compliance and IT Management
HIPAA, CMMC, PCI-DSS, and SOX readiness. Patch management, software updates, and how your IT is managed day to day.
Cybersecurity Assessment vs. Penetration Test vs. Vulnerability Scan
People mix these up all the time. Here’s the difference in plain English:
A cybersecurity risk assessment is the big picture. It looks at your policies, your people, your technology, and your processes. It tells you where the risk is and how bad it could get. Think of it as a full physical at the doctor’s office.
A vulnerability scan is automated software that scans your systems for known weaknesses, like missing patches, open ports, and outdated software. It’s fast and runs regularly. Think of it like a blood test.
A penetration test is where a real person tries to break into your system using the same techniques a hacker would. It’s the most hands-on and expensive option. Think of it like hiring someone to try to break into your house to see if your alarm system actually works.
Most Michigan businesses should start with a risk assessment, run regular vulnerability scans, and do penetration testing at least once a year. We help with all three.
