Cybersecurity ratings provide a means for objectively monitoring the security hygiene of organizations and gauging whether their security posture is improving or deteriorating over time. The ratings are valuable for vendor risk management programs, determining risk premiums for cyber insurance, credit underwriting and financial trading decisions, M&A due diligence information, executive-level reporting, and self-monitoring. Cybersecurity ratings and the extensive information on which they are based are also helpful for assessing compliance with cybersecurity risk standards.
