A Cyber Security Risk Score is a numerical representation of your organization’s cybersecurity health. It is based on various security factors and helps businesses:

  • Understand their overall cybersecurity risk at a glance.

  • Receive clear, actionable insights on where improvements are needed.

  • Compare their security posture against industry standards.

  • Communicate risk effectively to stakeholders and leadership.

This score provides an easy-to-understand benchmark that guides organizations toward improving their security measures in a data-driven way.
