Cybersecurity Controls Scorecards
Simplify your oversight as a security leader. Get at-a-glance views of how your controls are performing, build trust with stakeholders, and identify where the biggest risks lie.
Challenge
It's hard to turn complex cybersecurity metrics and risks into actionable reports that security, IT, audit, executives, and regulators understand. Let alone when the data is spread across distributed structures with varying tools and policies.
Existing methods fall short because they rely on surveys, sampling, and incomplete data that won’t stand up to long-term scrutiny. Without automation and context, it’s nearly impossible to keep pace with constant change and audits.
Solution
Security leaders can measure and manage control performance with quantified scores and trendlines that show changes over time. Scorecards can focus on business units, cyber control domains, frameworks, and more, helping you track what matters most.
Top Analysis automates prioritization by surfacing the most impactful actions to improve scores. There's no need to sift through data manually. Panaseer highlights policy deviations and provides the context needed to understand and resolve them quickly.
Clear, executive-ready summaries of control performance support stakeholder reporting, enabling teams to tell their cybersecurity story with data-driven clarity.
Benefits of using the Scorecards
Foster trust and support from key stakeholders
Help your key stakeholders better understand the impact of the security function, fostering trust and building greater support for your security initiatives.
Simple scores and trends
At-a-glance views of performance scores for your key initiatives means you can more effectively prioritize to take the next best action to improve your security posture.
Focus on the areas of greatest risk
A RAG map provides a high-level view of how your cybersecurity controls are performing across different business areas, highlighting successes, areas of improvement, and the security metrics having the biggest impact.
A new type of security scorecard
Aggregated performance scoring
The overall performance score is calculated as an aggregate of the scores for individual security areas, from business units to frameworks.
Each score is calculated against your policy, so it reflects your risk appetite: green is exceeding policy, amber is acceptable, and red is failing.
Our experienced team can give guidance on what initiatives to measure and thresholds to set.
Improvements over a specific timeframe can be seen in the trend graph, next to automated insights into the most impactful actions to improve your security posture.
Multiple scorecards
Build as many scorecards as your organization needs, allowing you to quickly shift focus between different strategic goals. This could be for regions, business units, or even security frameworks to track compliance towards CIS Controls or NIST CSF.
Measuring cybersecurity health with top analysis
Top Analysis tracks security metrics over time, providing a snapshot of your organization's cybersecurity health. It highlights trends, compares metrics to RAG thresholds, and helps prioritize key areas to strengthen security and stay ahead of threats.
Breakdown heatmap
