Bitsight Security Ratings vs Mastercard Cyber Secure

Bitsight Security Ratings helps security and risk leaders assess, monitor, prioritize, and communicate an organization’s cyber risk. It rates organizations on a 300–820 scale and assigns letter grades for individual risk vectors. Bitsight says ratings update daily, while validated rescan results can appear within minutes. Risk data is grouped into Compromised Systems, Organizational Diligence, User Behaviors, and Public Disclosures. Its methodology combines external data mapped to organizations with AI and analyst intelligence to assess risk vectors associated with breaches. Dynamic Remediation provides rescan feedback and rating credit after validated fixes involving SSL configurations, SSL certificates, open TCP ports, server software, and web application security. Plans cover rating and issue management, benchmarking, APIs, integrations, subsidiary management, continuous monitoring, and vendor-risk workflows. Integrations are described for GRC, vendor-risk, SIEM, SOAR, and workflow automation, including ServiceNow and Jira. Developers can build around Security Rating through APIs and MCP access. The product serves security, GRC, third-party risk, board, investor, insurer, financial, and government users. Pricing is on request.
