You wouldn’t skip your annual physical. You wouldn’t ignore your dentist until your teeth started falling out. And if your doctor said you needed a colonoscopy, you might put it off… but you’d still get it done.
Because deep down, you know that early detection is the key to survival.
Cybersecurity works the exact same way.
Your clients need a third-party cybersecurity assessment—not just once, and not just for a small part of their environment, but every single quarter.
Why? Because You Can’t Proofread Your Own Work
You don’t just take your doctor’s word for it when you get a blood test. Your sample goes to an independent lab for a reason—because you want an unbiased, expert-level analysis.
The same is true for your cybersecurity.
If you’re relying on internal teams or your own tools to assess security, you’re setting yourself up for failure. Cognitive bias is real. You only find what you’re looking for. You miss things—not because you’re careless, but because you’re too close to the problem.
And missing things in cybersecurity doesn’t just mean a minor mistake. It means breaches, lawsuits, and financial destruction.
But One Assessment Isn’t Enough
Would you only get one physical in your entire life?
Would you trust one blood test to tell you you’re healthy forever?
No—you repeat the tests to monitor changes, track improvements, and catch problems before they spiral out of control.
Cybersecurity is no different.
- People make changes.
- Vendors introduce new vulnerabilities.
- Employees get added (and make mistakes).
- New devices and services sneak in under the radar.
Security isn’t a one-and-done checkbox—it’s an ongoing fight.
The Right Cadence for Cyber Health
- Quarterly: A full Level 3 penetration test and cybersecurity analysis—because threats evolve, and so should your defenses.
- Monthly: External analysis to keep a pulse on perimeter vulnerabilities and attack exposure.
- Annually: Risk assessments and security policy reviews to keep compliance in check.
- Ongoing: Cyber awareness training—because people are always the weakest link.
Don’t Wait Until You’re Sick to Get a Diagnosis
Cyber health is just like physical health—when everything is working, you don’t think about it. But when you have a breach, all you’ll wish for is that it never happened.
Your clients need third-party cybersecurity assessments. Not once. Not “when they get around to it.” But consistently, on a schedule that keeps them secure.
So what’s stopping you?
If you’re not already getting these assessments, now is the time to start.
Your network needs it. Your clients’ networks need it.
And when the next breach happens, the ones who took this seriously won’t be the ones scrambling.
