The AI and data check
How safe is your data?
Find out how well your business protects its data by answering eight quick questions about staff use of AI, data sharing, WiFi and security. We do not store your data unless you choose to share it with us.
How your score is worked out
Each answer scores up to two points, and two of the questions are key.
- Yes scores 2, Yes but it needs improving scores 1, and No or not sure scores 0, so the most you can score is 16.
- A score of 13 or more, with neither of the two key questions answered No, means you are in great shape.
- A score of 8 to 12 means you have some gaps worth a conversation with the H4 team.
- A score below 8 means we should talk soon.
- The two key questions are about customer and staff details reaching free AI tools and personal messaging apps, because they carry the biggest risk.
The check is based on Cyber Essentials, the Information Commissioner’s Office guidance on data protection and our own experience. Our team designed the following questionnaire as a helpful guide rather than a formal audit.
