Your 30-60-90 Day Zero-Cost Security Roadmap

Course Survey: Help Us Improve for South African SMMEs

Zero-Cost Layered Security: Practical Steps to Reduce Cyber Risk is a hands-on course designed for South African SMMEs and entrepreneurs who need real protection without new software spend. In four sprints, you’ll implement 21 practical upgrades across people, devices, applications, websites, and data—using the tools you already have. You’ll start by setting purpose and priorities, run a quick free posture assessment, then move into action: policies your team will actually follow, MFA everywhere it’s free, phishing-resistant habits, least privilege, and simple incident basics. Next, you’ll harden laptops and phones with built-in features, tighten email and collaboration defaults, protect finance workflows, and lock down your domain, DNS, and website with free authentication and HTTPS. Finally, you’ll enable zero-cost backups, classify and minimize data, and build a one-page scorecard that proves risk reduction and resilience. Each step is mapped to measurable 30-60-90 day objectives and aligned to CIS/NIST quick-start guidance. Expect checklists, templates, and lightweight metrics that reduce risk quickly while building customer trust and sales credibility. No jargon, no upsell—just clear steps, owner assignments, and proof of completion you can show to clients, partners, and auditors.

            <p>Cybercrime doesn’t wait for budgets to grow. This course shows South African SMMEs and entrepreneurs how to cut real risk fast—without spending a cent. You’ll build a layered defense that compounds protection across people, devices, apps, websites, and data, using free features you already own and clear, step-by-step actions. We focus on practical wins: fewer account takeovers, less phishing damage, safer payments, and stronger trust with customers and partners. Each sprint delivers measurable improvements, proving that security can be simple, affordable, and business-smart.</p>

<p>We start by setting purpose and priorities for small teams, then run a quick, free posture assessment using spreadsheets and community frameworks like the CIS Controls and the NIST CSF quick-start guides. From there, you’ll roll out 21 zero-cost upgrades across four sprints. People-first protections lead the way—one-page policies, MFA everywhere, simple phishing drills, least privilege, and an incident call tree. Device defense follows with automatic updates, built-in OS safeguards, strong sign-in, and basic hygiene. Application security tightens email, collaboration, and finance flows with safer defaults, passwordless options, and two-person payment checks. Your brand gets fortified through domain and DNS controls, SPF/DKIM/DMARC, HTTPS, and no-code website hardening with free monitoring. Finally, you’ll strengthen resilience with zero-cost backups, smart data minimization, and a one-page security scorecard that turns progress into trust signals on your website and proposals.</p>

<p>Along the way, short quizzes cement learning and keep momentum high. You’ll finish with a 30-60-90 day roadmap that prioritizes impact, assigns owners and deadlines, and bakes reviews into monthly operations meetings. The outcome is clarity and confidence: reduced risk, improved resilience, and visible assurance for customers, funders, and regulators—proof that small, focused teams in South Africa can lead with security and grow with trust.</p>
