Security ratings are essential for managing risk and they are most valuable when providing enhanced transparency and stability, with metrics directly linked to action.
Our data science team is taking advantage of the rapid growth of the Zanshin solution, which brings more volume and variety to our dataset. Based on this work, we are excited to announce an upgrade to our scoring methodology, ensuring it more accurately represents the security posture of organizations.
What changed?
- A simplification of the factors used to calculate scores, and a calibration of their relative weights;
- Adjustments to parts of the score calculation which were evaluating organizations relative to the entire population in our platform. This means your score is now based solely on your own security performance, allowing you to set confident security goals.
The New Security Score is a monumental step toward providing a security rating that is not just a benchmark, but a trusted and transparent tool for improving your risk posture.
