What is a free IT security scan?
A free IT security scan is a fast, external assessment of your company's public security posture. It checks the signals an attacker sees first — whether your email can be spoofed, whether your credentials appear in known breaches, whether certificates are valid, and whether admin logins are exposed to the open internet — and returns a prioritized risk report in about 60 seconds. Nothing is installed and no internal access is required.
Why does external exposure matter?
The overwhelming majority of successful attacks on small and mid-sized businesses start with something visible from outside the network — a spoofable domain used for phishing, a password already leaked in a breach, or an exposed remote-access portal. These are the exposures a scan finds, and they are usually inexpensive to fix once you know they exist.
The 9 layers your scan grades
Each layer maps to a real-world attack path. Together they give you a prioritized view of where to act first.
Email Spoofing (SPF, DKIM, DMARC)
Whether attackers can send email that looks like it came from your domain.
SSL / TLS Certificates
Expired, weak, or misconfigured certificates that break trust and encryption.
Security Headers
Missing browser protections that leave your site open to common web attacks.
Subdomain Exposure
Forgotten or shadow subdomains that widen your attack surface.
Data Breach Detection
Company credentials already exposed in known third-party breaches.
DNS Health
Misconfigurations that enable hijacking, downtime, or email interception.
Technology Stack
Public-facing software and versions with known vulnerabilities.
Safe Browsing Status
Whether your domain is flagged as unsafe by Google Safe Browsing.
Login Portal Exposure
Admin and remote-access portals reachable from the open internet.
How to read your results and prioritize fixes
Not every finding carries the same risk. As a rule of thumb, remediate in this order: (1) missing or misconfigured DMARC/SPF/DKIM and any breached credentials, because together they enable convincing phishing and account takeover; (2) exposed login portals and out-of-date public software with known vulnerabilities; (3) expired or weak certificates and missing security headers. Each fix closes a specific door an attacker would otherwise walk through.
These priorities align with guidance from national authorities such as the U.S. Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, and the FTC Safeguards Rule — all of which emphasize identity, email authentication, and reducing exposed attack surface as foundational controls. If your business handles regulated data, the same findings often map directly to HIPAA, CMMC, PCI, or SOC 2 requirements.
Why run this through My MSP Tech
A report is only useful if you can act on it. My MSP Tech pairs the scan with a vetted directory of providers across all 50 states — filtered by service, company size, industry, compliance needs, response SLA, and support model. When your scan surfaces an exposure, you can request to be matched with 2–3 providers who specialize in exactly those issues, so you go from “here's what's open” to “here's who fixes it” in one step.

Free security scan — FAQs
What is a free IT security scan and what does it check?
A free IT security scan is an external, non-intrusive assessment of your company domain across nine layers — email spoofing controls (SPF, DKIM, DMARC), SSL/TLS certificates, security headers, exposed subdomains, breached credentials, DNS health, your public technology stack, Google Safe Browsing status, and exposed login portals. It reads only publicly available signals, so nothing is installed and no internal access is required.
Is the scan safe and does it require installing software?
Yes. The scan is passive and external — it inspects the same public data any attacker or search engine can already see. There is no agent, no software to install, and no change to your systems. Results are ready in about 60 seconds and cover the highest-impact exposures an attacker would probe first.
How accurate is a 60-second external scan compared with a full audit?
An external scan surfaces the exposures that are visible from outside your network — the ones attackers exploit most often because they require no insider access. It is an excellent first triage and prioritization tool, but it is not a substitute for a full internal penetration test or a compliance audit (for example HIPAA, CMMC, or SOC 2). Treat the report as a prioritized starting point that tells you where to act first.
What should I do if the report shows I am exposed?
Prioritize by impact: missing DMARC and breached credentials enable phishing and account takeover, so fix those first, followed by expired certificates and exposed admin portals. Most fixes require a managed IT or cybersecurity provider. From your results you can request to be matched with 2–3 vetted providers on My MSP Tech who handle exactly these issues and can remediate quickly.
Why do managed IT and cybersecurity providers use scans like this?
Because proof beats fear. A concrete report showing a business its real, named exposures is far more persuasive than abstract warnings — it turns "you should invest in security" into "here is what is open right now." Providers use these reports to scope work accurately and to help buyers make informed, urgent decisions.
