FROM BASELINE TO ACTION PLAN
CMB told you what you *think* your cryptography looks like. CBA tells you what it *actually* is—and exactly where to start fixing it.
The Cryptographic Baseline Assessment is a comprehensive, expert-guided evaluation of your cryptographic posture. We combine deep-dive interviews, real technical scanning of your external edge, and expert analysis to create a prioritized roadmap. In 4-8 weeks, you’ll have:
This is how CISOs make strategic decisions about where to invest first.
HOW CBA BUILDS ON CMB
Cryptographic Maturity Baseline (CMB)
Quick snapshot. 56 questions. Free. Tells you where your biggest gaps are.
Cryptographic Baseline Assessment (CBA)
Deep dive. Expert-guided. Real scanning. Tells you how to fix them strategically.

- €10-15K
- Prioritized roadmap
- Build implementation strategy
Why CBA Matters
CMB shows you gaps. But it can’t answer the question that keeps CISOs awake: “What are attackers seeing at our edge right now?” Your internal assessment might show you’re moderately strong in TLS configuration. But what’s actually visible from the internet? What’s exposed? What’s misconfigured at the perimeter—where attackers probe first? You don’t know. Most organizations don’t.
External Reality vs. Internal Assessment
CMB is based on what people tell us about your cryptography. But what’s actually visible at your network edge?
– What certificates are exposed?
– What protocols are negotiable?
– What looks vulnerable to an attacker doing reconnaissance?
CBA includes a real perimeter scan that answers: “What does the internet see when it probes our edge?”
Which Systems Actually Matter Most
You have dozens of systems. You can’t secure everything at once. CMB shows you gaps, but it doesn’t prioritize by business impact. CBA combines technical findings with your business context:
– Which systems handle your most sensitive data?
– Which systems are business-critical?
– Which systems, if compromised, would cause the most damage?
Result: You get a prioritized roadmap: “Fix these high-impact systems first. Then these medium-impact systems. These low-impact systems can wait.”
A Roadmap, FOLLOWED FROM Findings
CMB gives you scores. CBA gives you a plan. You’ll know:
– Which gaps to close first (and why)
– How long remediation will take
– What tools/expertise you’ll need
– How to demonstrate progress to leadership
