A self-assessment based on your own answers. It does no technical testing and isn't an assurance that your business is secure.

A self-assessment designed to help you consider CAP expectations. This is not a Compliance Assurance Programme, not independent testing, and not legal advice. It doesn't replace your own responsibilities as a licence holder.
