Overview#

The IR Readiness Assessment API provides organizations with a structured, comprehensive evaluation of their incident response capabilities. This tool enables security teams to benchmark their IR maturity against industry standards, identify capability gaps, and track improvement over time through scored assessments across defined IR phases.

Built for security professionals who need to understand and improve their organization's ability to detect, respond to, and recover from security incidents, this API delivers objective maturity scoring based on detailed questionnaire responses. The assessment framework covers the full incident response lifecycle and provides actionable insights aligned with NIST, SANS, and industry best practices.

Ideal users include Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs), incident response managers, security consultants, and organizations undergoing compliance audits or maturity improvement programs.
