Cyber Analytics

Enrich your data to better-assess risk.

Cyber security information on private businesses, especially in emerging markets, is scarce. Businesses struggle to gain broad global coverage of the entire portfolio of suppliers, vendors, applicants, customers or prospects. To meet this challenge, Cyber Analytics evaluates the security measures on virtually every Domain on the Internet tied to more than 90+ million businesses and organizations. The Cyber Analytics Grade provides a digital, empirical, globally consistent snapshot of critical security components of a company’s public network. Utilize this broad based foundational layer to assess risk, build models and sharpen scores to assist in your decisioning process.

Cyber Analytics uses a color-coded rating system that evaluates the security measures of millions of global businesses. With cyber crime costing over USD $1 trillion in 2020 and websites, email servers and other digital assets at risk, Cyber Analytics can deliver critical insight to help protect your business by evaluating the level of security with all businesses that you interact with. It covers 300+ million unique global Domains, making it one of the most comprehensive security assessment solutions available on the market.

Over 50 technographic attributes contribute to a business’ online Cyber Security Risk profile including:

The attributes of the TLS/SSL certificate which handles encryption on the website. This is particularly important if the business is running eCommerce or transferring sensitive information like passwords.
Profiles the email server’s security. Email remains a primary vector of attack including phishing, malware, trojans, viruses and of course spam.
When the domain was first registered in WHOIS and First Seen by Profound also contributes to the Cyber Analytics Grade. A domain with a provenance of a decade conveys a different story than one set up 2 weeks ago and now applying for finance from your company.

If a company has a poor Cyber Security Grade, they have not taken the basic precautions to secure their website and/or their email infrastructure—and are deemed high risk accounts.

Alternatively, if a company has a high grade, they have taken adequate steps to protect their network and digital assets. This does not mean they are immune to cyber crime since there are several factors including company and employee behavior that also impact a network’s security.
