System Assessment - Digital Infrastructure Audit
System Assessment
At low tide near Anini Beach, you can walk the reef and see exactly where it’s healthy and where it’s dying. The problems that matter are always visible if you know how to look.
Your digital infrastructure is the same.
The Most Important Four Hours
A System Assessment is a complete forensic audit of your digital ecosystem. We map every device, every service, every password, every point of failure.
No sales pitch. No upselling. Just truth about what’s broken and what it will take to fix it.
Duration: 2-4 hours for homes, full day for organizations
Deliverable: 20+ page detailed report
Investment: $750-1,500
Availability: 3 slots per month
What We Examine
Hardware Health
- Every computer, phone, tablet, router
- Storage devices and backup drives
- Network equipment condition
- Battery backup systems
- Age, capacity, failure risk
Service Dependencies
- Every cloud service you rely on
- Subscription services audit
- Platform lock-in assessment
- Data portability evaluation
- Terms of service landmines
Security Posture
- Password manager usage (or lack thereof)
- Two-factor authentication gaps
- Network security configuration
- Device encryption status
- Backup integrity
Offline Capabilities
- What works without internet?
- Local network functionality
- Backup accessibility
- Emergency access procedures
- Disaster recovery readiness
Data Sovereignty
- Who actually owns your data?
- Where does it physically live?
- Export capabilities
- Vendor lock-in severity
- Migration complexity
What You Receive
The Assessment Report
A comprehensive document that includes:
- Executive Summary - The truth in one page
- Critical Vulnerabilities - What needs immediate attention
- System Map - Visual diagram of your entire digital infrastructure
- Risk Matrix - Probability vs. impact for each vulnerability
- Remediation Roadmap - Prioritized fixes with effort estimates
- Investment Options - From DIY to full implementation
- Resource List - Tools, guides, and references
The Consultation
After you’ve digested the report, we meet for 90 minutes to:
- Answer every question
- Clarify technical concepts
- Discuss implementation options
- Plan next steps (if any)
Who This Is For
Perfect Fit
- Families preserving photos, documents, and digital legacies
- Small businesses needing reliable, private infrastructure
- Remote workers requiring bulletproof connectivity
- Privacy advocates seeking digital sovereignty
- Organizations with continuity requirements
Not a Fit
- Large enterprises (we’re boutique, not corporate)
- Emergency break-fix situations
- People who just want cheap tech support
- Anyone comfortable with platform dependency
What Happens Next
1. Initial Questionnaire
Brief survey about your current setup and concerns. Takes 10 minutes.
2. On-Site Assessment
We come to you. North Shore only. We examine everything systematically.
3. Report Generation
Within 72 hours, you receive your complete assessment report.
4. Review Consultation
We meet to discuss findings and options. No pressure, just clarity.
5. Your Decision
Implement yourself, hire us, or hire someone else. The report is yours regardless.
Common Questions
Why is this necessary?
Most people don’t know what they don’t know. You can’t fix problems you can’t see. The assessment reveals the full picture.
Can’t I do this myself?
If you could, you would have. This requires decades of experience to see patterns and connections.
What if I can’t afford the fixes?
The report prioritizes fixes by risk and cost. Start with the critical, free ones. Build from there.
Do you fix things during the assessment?
No. Assessment is diagnosis only. Mixing diagnosis with treatment compromises objectivity.
Is this a sales tactic?
The report stands alone. 40% of clients implement fixes themselves using our roadmap. We’re paid for truth, not fear.

The reef that looks healthy at high tide might be dying underneath. The only way to know is to look when the water’s clear.
