Good to know

Self-reported. The check reflects what your organisation currently believes or knows. It is not verified against your systems.

Not a compliance assessment. The Exposure Readiness Check is not a compliance certification and does not calculate Essential Eight maturity levels. Where relevant, it shows Essential Eight readiness indicators only.

No administrator access. You do not need to give anyone technical access to complete it.

Verification is optional. If you want supported findings checked against Microsoft 365 and Entra evidence, the Verified Exposure Scan is available separately.
