Start here · $399 Diagnostic

Scored cybersecurity assessments, delivered in days.

The Diagnostic is the simplest way to get started with CampusCISO. Pick the question you most need answered. Get a 0 to 100 Diagnostic Score and a prioritized list of your top gaps in days. This is a low-effort, affordable way to level-set before you commit to deeper work. No system access or site visit needed.

$399 per lens. Reports come back in two to five business days of a complete submission, depending on the lens.

What you get

Three things you can't get from a self-assessment.

We publish our methods and frameworks for free, starting with IT Policy and adding the rest over the coming year. If a self-assessment fits your needs, you can do the work yourself; it just takes your team’s time to complete.

The Diagnostic is the faster path: a finished report in days, not weeks, with minimal time required from your team. Here’s what it adds that a self-assessment can’t.

01

A 0 to 100 Diagnostic Score

A single, defensible number that scores your current state against the framework for the lens you choose, so you start from a clear baseline instead of a gut feel.

02

A prioritized list of your top gaps

Not a flat list of everything that could be improved. The handful of gaps that matter most for your institution, ranked, so you know where to look first.

03

A video overview and a coaching pass

A personalized video walking you through your results, plus a 30-day Cyber Bridge® coaching pass to talk the findings through with the founder.

Pick your lens

Start with the question you most need answered.

The Diagnostic is offered for two of the Three Lenses of Cyber Resilience: your capabilities and your policies. You don't have to do both. Start where the need is most pressing.

Focused on response preparedness? TTX Coaching is a hands-on Planning Engagement rather than a $399 Diagnostic. Not sure which lens fits? See how the Three Lenses fit together.

Start your diagnostic

Book your diagnostic kickoff call

Pick a time to kick off your $399 Cyber Heat Map or IT Policy Diagnostic. We'll confirm your scope, answer any questions, and get your assessment underway. No system access or site visit required. Payment is arranged when we confirm scope on the call.

Pick a time that works. The scheduler opens when you click, so nothing loads or tracks until you're ready.

How it works

Three steps, mostly on your schedule.

The process is built to fit around a busy team. You submit when you're ready, we do the analysis, and you get a report you can act on.

1

Get started and upload materials

Book a short kickoff call to confirm scope, then securely submit the material through the CampusCISO Portal. For IT Policy, that’s your policies and standards. For Cyber Heat Map, your answers to a guided capability questionnaire. We don’t require system access or a site visit.

2

We analyze and score

We apply our methodologies and score your current state, informed by our benchmarking dataset. This is founder-led work, not a junior analyst running a template.

3

You get your report in days

The report includes a 0 to 100 Diagnostic Score and a prioritized list of your top gaps. You also get a personalized video overview and a 30-day Cyber Bridge® coaching pass. A clear read of your current state that you can act on.

Want more depth after the report lands? You can upgrade to the full Roadmap engagement. If you upgrade within 90 days, the full $399 Diagnostic fee credits toward the Roadmap and your assessment data carries forward at no additional cost.

New client offer

Special offer: New clients get a year of Guided Membership.

First-time clients who book a standalone Planning Engagement get a complimentary year of Guided Membership, including Cyber Bridge® small-group coaching, so you have somewhere to take the findings after the report lands.

Common questions

Before you start.

How much does a Diagnostic cost?

Each Diagnostic is $399 per lens. There's no subscription required to buy one, and no long contract to sign. If you upgrade to the matching Roadmap within 90 days, the full $399 credits toward it.

How long does it take?

An IT Policy Diagnostic comes back in two business days of a complete submission; a Cyber Heat Map Diagnostic in five. (TTX Coaching is a Planning Engagement, not a Diagnostic, and runs on the schedule of your tabletop exercise.)

Do you need access to our systems?

No. The Diagnostic is an advisory service, not a scanner or an online tool. You submit information through the secure Portal once you've signed up. We don't need system access or a site visit.

What do we need to provide?

It depends on the lens. For IT Policy, your policies and standards, nothing sensitive, just the documents that describe how your institution operates. For Cyber Heat Map, your answers to a guided capability questionnaire.

What's the difference between a Diagnostic and a Roadmap?

The Diagnostic gives you a scored read and a prioritized gap list, a fast, affordable level-set. The Roadmap ($4,999) builds on it with peer comparison, prioritized recommendations, and a board-ready narrative. Your Diagnostic fee credits toward the Roadmap if you upgrade within 90 days.

Who does the work?

CampusCISO is founder-led. Your analysis is done by Chris Schreiber, who brings nearly 30 years of higher education technology leadership, not handed to a junior analyst.

What happens after the report?

You can act on the gaps yourself, upgrade to a Roadmap for prioritized recommendations and board-ready materials, or join a membership for ongoing advisory support. There's no obligation to continue.
