Security ratings or cybersecurity ratings are data-driven, objective and complex assessments of an organization's security status. They are created by a trustworthy, unbiased security rating platform that makes them valuable as an objective measure of the cyber security performance of the organization. 

Much as credit ratings and FICO ratings aim to provide a quantitative measure of credit risk, security ratings aim to provide a quantitative measure of cyber risk. 

The higher the security rating, the better the security status of the company. 

Thousands of companies like yours use security ratings as a method to recognize and manage a range of important, interlinked internal and external security risks.
