Cyber-Insurance Readiness Checklist (Excel)
Excel checklist of 40 controls cyber-insurance applications commonly ask about (MFA, EDR, backups, patching, training, IR plan) with status, owner and evidence columns.
Why it matters
Before renewal, many small businesses face a long cyber-insurance application asking about MFA, EDR, backups and training. This checklist lets you work through the commonly asked controls, assign owners and collect evidence before you answer. It is a planning aid only: question wording varies by carrier, and you must answer your actual application truthfully.
What's included
- 40 controls in 14 areas: MFA, endpoint protection/EDR, backups, patching, email security, training, funds-transfer controls, incident response, access, data protection, vendors, governance, network and logging
- Status drop-downs (Yes / Partial / No / Unknown / N/A) with color coding
- Owner, evidence location, suggested evidence and target-date columns
- A summary tab with an automatic readiness percentage by category
- Links each control to the matching Love Digital Works policy template
Works in Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets and LibreOffice Calc. Included in the Starter Kit and the Complete Bundle.
