What the Security Scorecard shows
The Security Scorecard is a simple reporting view that brings key account and access checks into one place. It helps you see where passwords are still weak, where accounts are shared, and which users need a reset or a cleaner setup. For a Cape Town office with ten staff or a remote team spread across Johannesburg, Pretoria and Durban, the scorecard gives the same clear view without needing to chase every department one by one.
The score is based on practical checks that matter day to day, not vanity numbers. You can use it after onboarding, after staff changes, or before a quarterly access review. It is especially useful for small businesses that rely on a few people handling finance, admin and supplier portals, because one missed account can hold up payroll, invoicing or client work.
Options for different team sizes
1Pass is suited to small teams that want a straightforward view of security health, from a four person office to a growing business with 50 plus users. You can track one team, several departments, or a mix of office and remote users across South Africa. The scorecard can be used on its own or alongside password management and single sign-on, depending on how much control you need.
- Starter view: best for very small teams that need basic visibility and a simple weekly check.
- Team view: suits businesses with shared apps, multiple logins and a few admin users.
- Multi-site view: ideal where branches in Cape Town, Gauteng or KwaZulu-Natal need separate oversight.
- Remote view: useful for distributed teams where onboarding and offboarding happen without everyone being in the same office.
Where it suits best in a South African business
The scorecard suits businesses that depend on fast access and tidy account control, including professional services, suppliers, agencies, bookkeepers, property firms and small operations teams. It is also a good fit where staff use several cloud tools and one shared admin inbox, because access sprawl tends to grow quietly over time. In coastal towns like Gqeberha or Durban, where humidity and load-shedding already make daily operations less predictable, keeping digital access organised removes one more source of stress.
Many small teams use the scorecard as part of monthly admin. It gives managers a quick way to check if passwords are being reused, if former staff still have access, or if key accounts need stronger protection. That matters when municipal compliance, supplier portals or client records sit behind a few important logins.
Setup, access and what you need on site
No special power or gas supply is needed. The scorecard is part of the digital setup, so the main requirement is secure access to your account and a stable internet connection for users and administrators. For remote onboarding, we can help teams in Woodstock, Stellenbosch, Century City, Johannesburg, Pretoria, Durban and Gqeberha get the right access checks in place without needing an on-site visit.
- Internet: steady connection recommended for admin use and team enrolment.
- Devices: benchtop, laptop or mobile access for staff reviews and approvals.
- Users: best when each staff member has their own profile, not a shared login.
- Admin rights: one or two trusted admins for score review and follow-up actions.
If you are rolling out 1Pass across a branch network, the scorecard can be introduced with your initial security review, password migration and user onboarding training. That keeps the process orderly and avoids gaps between setup and daily use.
Care, servicing and keeping the score useful
The scorecard does not need physical servicing, but it does need regular attention. We recommend checking it after staff changes, after major app rollouts, and at least once a quarter. That is usually enough to spot weak passwords, orphaned access and admin accounts that no longer need full control. If your team is busy, the scorecard becomes most useful when it is part of a simple routine rather than a once-off report.
Ongoing support can include quarterly access reviews, offboarding process design and refresher training for admins. If a new department joins or your business opens another site, the scorecard can be adjusted so the reporting still reflects who should have access and who should not. A little admin every few weeks saves a lot of clean-up later on.
What to check before you order
Before you choose the Security Scorecard setup, it helps to decide how much detail you want and who will act on the results. A small finance team may only need a basic weekly view, while a larger business may want separate reporting for branch managers, operations and system admins. If you are not sure, ask for a setup that matches your current structure and can grow with you later.
- How many users need to be covered from the start.
- Which applications should be included in the access review.
- Whether you need one company-wide score or separate branch reporting.
- Who will handle password resets, approvals and offboarding checks.
- Whether your team needs training before the scorecard goes live.
- How often you want quarterly or monthly reviews to be run.
Clients can reach us through the enquiry form on our contact page to discuss the right setup for their team. With the right structure, the scorecard becomes a practical part of your security routine not just another report to file away.
