# Progressive Disclosure Form for Security Websites
A form pattern that reveals the next field only after the current one is answered, reducing cognitive load and increasing completion rates on security service intake pages.
## The Problem
Security company intake forms typically ask 8-12 fields at once. For a prospect evaluating an MDR or GRC vendor, this feels like a risk assessment before they've even had a conversation.
Result: high abandonment, low-quality submissions, wasted sales time.
## The Solution
A step-by-step form where each question appears only after the previous is answered. Service type selection gates the relevant follow-up fields, so prospects only see what's relevant to them.
Key behaviors:
- One question visible at a time
- Next field unlocks on valid input
- Service type selection adapts remaining questions
- Final CTA only appears when all required fields are complete
## Use Cases
- MDR/SOC intake: "What's your environment?" → "How many endpoints?" → "Current SIEM?"
- GRC scoping: "Which framework?" → "Employee count?" → "Compliance deadline?"
- Pentest request: "Web or cloud?" → "In-scope assets?" → "Preferred timeline?"
## Impact
Reduces form abandonment. Improves lead quality by collecting scoped, sequential answers. Makes intake feel like a conversation, not a questionnaire.
