Bitsight Security Performance Management

Bitsight Security Performance Management (SPM) helps organizations measure, benchmark and improve their own cybersecurity posture using the same outside-in data that powers Bitsight Security Ratings. Bitsight, headquartered in Boston, is one of the pioneers of security ratings.

SPM gives security leaders a continuous view of their organization's external attack surface and security findings, such as compromised systems, open ports, patching cadence, TLS configuration and email security settings, across subsidiaries and business units. Leaders can compare performance with industry peers, set goals, forecast how remediation will change their rating and assign findings to teams. Attack surface analytics show internet-facing assets, including unknown ones, and ties them to risk, while reporting helps communicate progress to executives and boards. Research has correlated Bitsight ratings with the likelihood of experiencing a breach.

Organizations use Bitsight SPM to benchmark themselves against peers, prioritize external risk remediation, manage security across subsidiaries and report cyber performance to leadership.
