Essential Eight Maturity Self-Assessment
Walk through eight controls, answer up to four questions each, get a maturity level estimate per control and an overall heatmap. Results are kept in the URL so you can share or revisit them. No login. No tracking.
How this self-assessment is scored
Each of the eight controls has up to four questions, ordered roughly from baseline practice (Maturity Level 1) up to advanced practice (Maturity Level 3). Your maturity estimate for a control is the highest level for which you can answer "yes" to all preceding questions:
- ML0 — none of the four questions answered yes.
- ML1 — first question yes (baseline implementation).
- ML2 — first two yes.
- ML3 — first three yes (the advanced row covers depth).
This is a v0.1 abbreviated self-check, not a formal assessment. The official ASD Essential Eight Maturity Model has more specific criteria per level, distinguishes mitigation strategies for different platforms, and is intended to be assessed against evidence rather than self-reported answers. For a formal read of where you sit — including the supporting evidence an authorising officer or auditor would expect — talk to us about a Stage 1 Essential Eight advisory engagement.
