Public Sector & Government Cybersecurity

PARTNERED WITH PUBLIC SECTOR AND EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS

Making the world a safer place

There are a number of third party tools similar to Security Scorecard… in use by industry operators and industry security service providers. These “scorecards” provide a rating of cybersecurity postures of corporate entities through a non-intrusive “outside-in” view of security metrics and cyber threat intelligence signals. Tools and services such as this, if in wider use, could better inform industry of certain vulnerabilities to act upon and decrease gaps in cybersecurity. The Security Scorecard report does include several of the security measures required by the pipeline security directive. As such, TSA’s security directives and the implementation of required measures could be validated by the Security Scorecard or similar tools to readily identify potential security gaps.

"The emergence of security ratings has increased the use of cyber risk quantification to calculate and measure cyber risk exposure. These security ratings provide a starting point for companies’ cybersecurity capabilities and help elevate cyber risk to the level of board decision-making."

Bob KolaskyAssistant Director for the National Risk Management Center, Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency

"For even trusted sources, program managers should maintain continuous awareness of source compromises and be prepared to respond to sudden loss of trust in a repository."

Benchmarking

Comprehensive visibility of IoT and cloud environments helps government agencies secure the connected devices that drive critical infrastructure.

SecurityScorecard helps public sector agencies access the security data they need to safeguard their digital footprints, even if they don’t have access to deeper cyber intelligence collected by other government entities.

Supply Chain Risk Management

We’re here to help state and federal agencies mitigate vendor risk in order to protect important systems and data.

With automated, scalable, and integrated workflows, you can scale your third-party risk management and compliance operations across your entire supply chain and vendor ecosystem.

Continuously Monitor Cyber Risk

SecurityScorecard’s ratings allow agencies and regulators to take a risk-based approach to their oversight, focusing on the weakest links and the biggest threats.

We scan the entire internet every day, giving federal, state, and local agencies dynamic, company-level views of the attack surface of critical infrastructure companies and regulated entities.

GOVERNMENT

Safeguard critical systems and data.

Regulatory Compliance

Track compliance

Stay compliant with evolving regulations and government mandates. SecurityScorecard’s machine learning automatically maps to relevant security standards and regulations, including NIST-800-171, GDPR, NIST SP 800-53, NERC CIP, and ISO (or you can build a custom one). You can track adherence and set up alerts for potential compliance gaps.

Benchmarking

Benchmark Reporting

Compare multiple companies’ scores over time. In that historic timeline, identify key events of interest (such as Malware, Ransomware, or a Breach). You can make risk-based procurement decisions as well as share the report link with co-workers.
