GyK Digital Assessments
Independent digital assessments

Somebody should be checking this.

GyK Digital Assessments looks at a small organization's web presence the way an outside auditor would — hosting, exposure, everyday IT hygiene — and writes up what's actually found, in plain language.

sample finding format

Illustrative only — every report is written for the specific site being reviewed.

Three lenses, one report

Each assessment is written from three professional perspectives, so nothing gets missed by looking at only the code or only the server:

Cloud Engineer
Hosting setup, DNS records, backup habits, and uptime practices.
Security Architect
Exposed services, certificate hygiene, and access controls.
IT Generalist
Plain, practical fixes your own staff can make without new software or budget.

Who this is for

Most requests so far come from small businesses, non-profits, and religious organizations — places with a website or online presence, but no one on staff whose job it is to watch over it.

How an assessment runs

  1. 01Share the site. Send over the website or domain you'd like reviewed.
  2. 02It gets looked at by hand. No automated scan-and-forward — an actual review of what's there.
  3. 03You get the write-up. A plain-language report of what was found, and what to do about it.

Support this work

GyK Digital Assessments is a small, word-of-mouth practice. If a report was useful, you're welcome to leave a tip — that's how this stays running.
