About Checkmark as a Service

Checkmark as a Service started as a lighthearted parody - because the security world takes itself a little too seriously. But it quickly became a practical tool for MSPs who needed a simple way to start security conversations without fear, confusion, or checkbox theatrics.

Built inside the Compliance Scorecard ecosystem, this tool gives MSPs a fast, surface-level view of what's publicly visible to attackers. No agents. No credentialed scans. No overlap with vulnerability tools. Just clear, external intelligence to open the right conversations.

Checker the Boxer - our unofficial compliance companion - reminds us that security doesn't need to be scary. Sometimes you just need a loyal guide to help spot the obvious stuff first.

We help MSPs shift the conversation:

  • From "Do you have compliance?" to "Here's what's visible right now."
  • From fear-based selling to clear, useful intelligence.
  • From giant reports to meaningful next steps.
  • From checkbox theater to practical security guidance.

Why This Exists

MSPs kept asking for a simple, fast way to kick off security conversations - something lighter than a vulnerability scan, and more business-friendly than a giant audit report. Checkmark fills that gap without replacing deeper tools or GRC programs.

  • Eliminates fear-based pre-sales tactics
  • Shows only what's publicly visible - nothing internal
  • Helps MSPs frame risk without overwhelming clients
  • Pairs naturally with Compliance Scorecard's full GRC platform

What Checkmark Actually Does

  • External signals only: What attackers can see from the outside
  • Business context: Clear, simple explanations clients understand
  • Sales enablement: A low-friction entry point to real conversation
  • Upgrade-ready: Built-in API converts prospects to full Compliance Scorecard clients

How MSPs Use It

  • Qualify prospects: Quickly see who needs help
  • Start the conversation: Without fear, pressure, or giant PDFs
  • Build trust: Show value before proposing deeper work
  • Bridge into GRC: Move clients directly into Compliance Scorecard programs

Where This Fits

This isn't a vulnerability scanner, a pentest, or a full compliance program. It's the front door - an early, low-cost look at external risk that naturally leads to deeper assessments and full GRC adoption inside Compliance Scorecard.

  • Run a free scan to see it live
  • Move qualified prospects into Compliance Scorecard
  • Use it with current clients or new leads
