SecurityScorecard, a provider of cybersecurity ratings, has teamed up with cyber exposure company Tenable to help businesses better see their risk posture.
The agreement will see SecurityScorecard deploy its real-time visibility services into Tenable’s analytics and cyber monitoring services. Through this, the companies hope CISOs, IT professionals and security teams will be able to review their SecurityScorecard rating through the Tenable dashboard.
Customers will benefit from intelligence to improve external risk management and threat detection through real-time updates.
SecurityScorecard claims the integration will help objectively measure risk postures of internal and external assets. It will also streamline management of security to a single platform and lower the costs associated with identifying vulnerabilities within systems.
Finally, the company claims it will empower customers to easily communicate metrics to key stakeholders via advanced analytics.
SecurityScorecard CEO and co-founder Aleksandr Yampolskiy said, “Organisations must be proactive to address cyber breaches, and security ratings are the foundation to measuring and understanding security resilience in real time.
“Together, SecurityScorecard and Tenable are advancing a new standard for continuous monitoring by blending external and internal risk assessments, which provide organizations with a holistic view into the risks that exist in their environments.”
Earlier in the year, SecurityScorecard bagged $180m in its Series E funding round. The investment was backed by Silver Lake Waterman, funds and accounts advised by T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc., Kayne Anderson Rudnick and Fitch Ventures, among others.
