Good automation and analytics, but is costly
The report model was our main concern. I believe currently the solution uses a third party for the reporting. As part of a consulting firm, one of the challenges we face is the difficulty in producing reports that meet the expectations of our clients and customers. It would be beneficial if the focus could be shifted toward improving the reporting aspect. The impact report is a crucial aspect, as we only have one opportunity to create it. Galvanize HighBond can improve by generating more impact reports post-project, and allowing access to the reports using a web version, which would greatly benefit us. The cost of the solution is expensive and needs improvement.

Vendor risk monitoring has strengthened our security posture and reduced insurance costs
In terms of improvements, I feel SecurityScorecard could enhance some of the integrations based on AI platforms, where I could receive suggestions from the AI tool regarding why SecurityScorecard rates specific issues as critical or high. Details on the technical mitigation would help my non-technical teams understand the security issues better. I think improvements could be made on the reporting side as well, such as the ability to download customizable reports. While SecurityScorecard offers various kinds of reports now, they are limited to predefined formats. Having the ability to choose specific fields for an automated report would be very helpful.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable feature is automation."
"SecurityScorecard has positively impacted my organization and my customers by providing numerous benefits, as customers easily obtain the score, can determine what ports are open and many other things so that they can secure their DNS, applications, and networks effectively, and they have improved compliance and security with the help of SecurityScorecard."
"I rate the product's initial setup phase a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is a difficult setup phase, and ten is an easy setup process."
"The initial setup takes just a couple of days and doesn't require any installation."
"Since we onboarded SecurityScorecard, our organization has been positively impacted by significantly improving our security maturity."
"With its automated approach, nothing is missed on the IPs your organization is related to."
"SecurityScorecard helps us identify potential vulnerabilities early, reduce third-party risk, and make more informed security decisions without relying only on questionnaires or self-reporting information."
"The biggest benefit is visibility, allowing organizations to understand their risks, vulnerabilities, and potential threats."
"The solution helps identify our environment's vulnerabilities."
 

Cons

"The cost of the solution is expensive and needs improvement."
"They could improve the process with a questionnaire module for the product."
"There could be more information in regards to solving problems like hints on what specifically to look for."
"The tool needs to have the ability to mitigate vulnerabilities with alternative solutions."
"The product can be improved by incorporating more data points and intelligence around dark web information and threat data."
"Regarding my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing for SecurityScorecard, since it does not require active deployment on our side being a SaaS-first company, I expected slightly lower pricing."
"SecurityScorecard can be complex during setup, and I would recommend that anyone implementing it get help setting it up because it is not as straightforward as people might think."
"Some wanted a different solution."
"SecurityScorecard's technical team's response time is an area that my company expects to be made faster."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I give the cost of the solution a six out of ten."
"The pricing of SecurityScorecard is fair. I would rate it a seven. It's a bit more on the expensive side. In Brazil, for example, making a payment to the vendor involves wire transfers and high taxes, making it more expensive. Selling SecurityScorecard or any American vendor's product in the United States is very different from selling in South America or Brazil."
"Even though it's competitive, they offer flexible pricing structures."
"The pricing could be split into a lower-paid tier for smaller organizations and another higher tier for others with a more security-focused outlook. $1000 per month is more than some companies pay for their internet connections in total. UPDATE: they have a new 400$ a month tier for starters."
