The 2024 Threat Indexes are the result of SRA’s collaboration with top organizations to pinpoint the most pressing threat groups and their tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) that pose risks to these vital sectors. The Indexes serve as a highly effective tool for companies seeking to assess their cybersecurity posture against industry-specific threats and to understand how they stack up against their peers.
SRA’s innovative VECTR platform facilitates the use of the Indexes through collaborative purple team exercises. The outcome is a Threat Resilience Benchmark™ (TRB) that organizations can leverage to quantitatively answer the critical question: “How do we compare with our peers?”
In addition to providing a framework for purple team assessments, SRA publishes a quarterly benchmark score for each Index. These scores offer organizations a dynamic and ongoing metric to gauge their progress and narrate their Threat Resilience story throughout the year.
