What are cybersecurity ratings, and how do they help?

Security ratings are objective assessments of an organization’s cybersecurity posture, represented by letter grades. They provide a clear and quantifiable view of cyber risk, enabling organizations to identify potential threats and security incidents early.

Why is continuous monitoring important for cybersecurity?

Continuous monitoring is essential for maintaining a resilient security posture. It helps organizations address vulnerability management, reduce risk exposure, and respond swiftly to potential risks.

How does SecurityScorecard support third-party risk management programs?

Our platform enhances third-party risk management by offering tools for risk assessment and continuous monitoring. This ensures your ecosystem is secure and protected from potential threats and security breaches.

What makes SecurityScorecard’s ratings unique?

Our security ratings are the best predictor of breach, with a 13.8x breach ratio. Unlike other security ratings that rely on judgment, SecurityScorecard’s ratings uses an ML/AI-based scoring approach to identify issues predictive of breach and algorithmically determine their impact on breach predictability.

How do security ratings influence informed decisions?

By using security ratings services, organizations can make informed decisions about their third-party risk management program, prioritize vulnerability management, and ensure a resilient security posture across their digital ecosystem.

How do prospective customers benefit from using SecurityScorecard?

Prospective customers can quickly gain insights into their own cybersecurity posture and compare it against industry benchmarks. This helps them identify areas for improvement, build trust with partners, and make informed decisions about addressing cybersecurity risks.
