Security Ratings by SecurityScorecard

An innovative solution to improve your cyber security posture

Overview

Business networks are becoming increasingly susceptible to having compromised security through network-connected third and fourth-party suppliers. Some of the top cyber security threats that businesses deal with include cloud vulnerabilities, phishing attacks, and supply chain compromise – which is a new, rapidly growing threat on the cyber security landscape, causing higher costs for governance of supply chain.

Recently the need for businesses to have an online presence and accommodate remote working has led to loss of control and reduced visibility of internet security posture. Current survey-based security management approaches have proven to be expensive, biased, outdated, and subjective.

How Security Ratings by SecurityScorecard helps you manage your third parties’ cyber risks

273429893

Security Ratings by SecurityScorecard is a SaaS (software as a service) platform that uses a ratings-based scoring system – like traditional credit rating checks – which assesses your cyber security risk. Security Ratings by SecurityScorecard is a combination of two products:

  • SecurityScorecard Ratings: a risk management platform that gives organisations the ability to continuously monitor and assess the cyberhealth of its Internet-facing ecosystem, through an easy-to-understand scorecard.  
  • SecurityScorecard Atlas: a secure questionnaire management and validation solution that simplifies the management of third-party compliance programmes.

This service gives a 360-degree view of cyber risks for any supplier by providing you with an easy-to-read report, explaining cyber risks to your business in one single view. This new visibility leads to faster and more effective decision making and resource allocation to manage your cyber risks efficiently.
