Today, Bitsight and Diligent launched an extension of our partnership focused on correlated, independent, and comparable cyber ratings from Bitsight within Diligent’s Board Reporting for IT Risk. Streamlined data collection and standardized dashboards enable CISOs to deliver clear and consistent insights to the board leveraging Bitsight and Diligent solutions.

Cybersecurity leaders are always working to make smarter investments to improve their programs. Not only do they look to reduce risk from the expanding attack surface and manage supply chain risk, they’re also juggling external pressures from regulators, insurers, and shareholders. As leaders look to technology solutions to help, many look at data analytics to reduce their organization’s risk, manage exposure, and improve overall program performance.

In the digital age, an organization’s cybersecurity posture is as strong as its intelligence. Open-source intelligence (OSINT) has emerged as a vital tool for businesses, non-profit organizations, and governments alike to fend off cyber threats. This guide offers a deep dive into the realm of OSINT, detailing its importance, applications, challenges, and how SecurityScorecard’s cybersecurity assessment platform empowers organizations to utilize it effectively.

Cyberattacks are on the rise. In 2022, there was a 38 percent increase in global attacks compared to the previous year—and security teams are struggling to keep up. It now takes an average of 277 days for teams to identify and contain a breach. With so many alerts being received by the Security Operations Centers (SOCs) each day, how do teams decide which issues to address first?

As your organization's attack surface expands—spanning across the cloud, remote locations, and interconnected digital supply chains—the potential for cyber risk exposure grows. Implementing a proactive cybersecurity exposure management program can enhance your understanding of your organization's cyber risk posture and facilitate informed decision-making about how to best allocate investments and resources.

Effective remediation management is critical as it has the greatest positive influence on your cybersecurity risk management lifecycle. Efficient remediation ensures vulnerabilities are completely addressed, supporting compliance management efforts and a healthy security posture, reducing overall data breach risks. Poor remediation burdens security teams with avoidable incident responses, distracting them from emerging cyber threats bloating remediation backlogs.
