EY BRETA is designed to identify potential threats, enabling organizations to develop effective pre-emptive mitigation strategies. SecurityScorecard will deliver cybersecurity vulnerability monitoring, ratings and remediation guidance that can help users understand potential cyber threats emanating from their business relationships and enable them to contextualize and prioritize threat indicators. Security ratings represent a core component of the EY BRETA threat ratings service and help to address critical third-party risk concerns for CISOs and executive teams.
SecurityScorecard takes an outside-in view of a company’s security posture by seeing what a hacker sees. The company’s technology uses non-intrusive proprietary data collection methods, as well as trusted commercial and open-source threat feeds to continuously monitor 10 risk factor groups and instantly deliver an easy-to-understand A-F rating.
