Metrics Catalog

We have hundreds of out-of-the-box security metrics, with thousands of permutations. Panaseer's metric catalog details all pre-packaged best practice metrics available to users.

These metrics are the building blocks for a range of visualizations and dashboards. They provide actionable insight across ten cyber control domains. They can be configured to your policies and aligned to recognized security standards and frameworks.

Users can explore combinations of metrics developed for specific use cases, such as a new measurement program, ransomware, or cyber insurance.

Types of metrics

Informational

Understand your security posture with straightforward counts and sums.

For example, the total number of devices in your organization’s environment.

Policy

a metric card showing a policy metric type. This means the user has set a policy and we are seeing how it passes against this. The metric example is "applications exceeding scan SLA" and is shown at 1.41% in green.

Track adherence to policies and standards, whether internal or regulatory.

Codify “what good looks like” into your metrics, showing whether you’re hitting thresholds with a RAG system.

Coverage

Ensure tools and controls are deployed as expected and provide essential context for other metrics.

Answer questions like: “Do all our assets have endpoint protection?”

Diagnostic

Provide actionable insight, narrow down the root cause, and take the next best action to reduce risk.

Use phishing test results combined with contextual data, for example, to identify which groups of employees to prioritize for training.

Compound risk

Combine metrics from across multiple domains to identify and remediate toxic combinations.

For example, prioritize patching critical vulnerabilities on devices that don’t have an endpoint solution in place.
