Audit Your Internal Network Security Controls
Built for IT managers, network administrators, and technical leaders who need a practical internal security audit checklist across administrative, physical, and technical controls.

From Audit Findings to Practical Remediation
This tool is for initial guidance only and does not replace a professional cybersecurity audit, compliance assessment, penetration test, vulnerability assessment, or legal/compliance review. Use the output as a starting point for validation, documentation, remediation planning, and management review.
Internal Security Audit FAQ
Use these notes to explain the tool to IT leadership and business stakeholders.
Is this the same as a professional cybersecurity audit?
No. This tool is an initial self-assessment and planning worksheet. A professional audit includes interviews, evidence review, technical validation, configuration inspection, sampling, risk analysis, and documented findings.
Can IT administrators use this before calling OC Security Audit?
Yes. It helps IT teams organize documentation, identify missing controls, and prepare better evidence before a formal review.
Does this tool upload our answers?
No. The questionnaire runs in the browser. Answers are not intentionally sent to the WordPress server or stored by OC Security Audit.
What happens after the report is generated?
Use the report to prioritize immediate remediation, 30-day improvements, and ongoing validation. OC Security Audit can help validate risks and IT Perfection can help implement technical remediation when needed.
