SecurityScorecard Security Ratings

SecurityScorecard Security Ratings deliver continuous, data-driven cybersecurity risk scores that empower organizations to evaluate, track, and improve their own cyber resilience as well as the defensive posture of third-party vendors and business partners. Traditional cybersecurity assessments rely on self-reported questionnaires and point-in-time penetration tests that quickly become obsolete and fail to capture emerging attack vectors. SecurityScorecard Security Ratings solve this problem by continuously scanning global internet-facing infrastructure to analyze millions of domains, network endpoints, and digital assets. The rating methodology assesses ten critical risk factors—ranging from application security and SSL/TLS configuration to DNS health and compromised credentials discovered on underground threat communities. Organizations receiving high ratings are statistically proven to be significantly less likely to suffer a catastrophic breach compared to low-rated organizations. Security practitioners utilize detailed technical findings to prioritize vulnerability patching, remediate open ports, and resolve misconfigured cloud services rapidly. Companies can contest findings with automated proof submission, track peer benchmarking metrics, and share verified security scores with insurers, investors, and enterprise customers. SecurityScorecard Security Ratings establish an objective, trusted standard for communicating cyber risk across the digital supply chain.
