SecurityScorecard is the global leader in cybersecurity ratings, with over 12 million companies continuously rated, and is funded by world-class investors such as Evolution Equity Partners, Silver Lake Partners, Sequoia Capital, GV, Riverwood Capital, and others.

Fremont, CA: SecurityScorecard's patented rating technology, developed in 2013 by security and risk experts Dr. Aleksandr Yampolskiy and Sam Kassoumeh, is used by over 25,000 organizations for enterprise risk management, third-party risk management, board reporting, due diligence, cyber insurance underwriting, and regulatory oversight.

SecurityScorecard, the global leader in cybersecurity ratings, established a partnership with Marsh McLennan, the world's leading professional services firm in risk, strategy, and people, to help organizations around the globe improve their cyber resilience.

Marsh McLennan's Cyber Risk Analytics Center will use SecurityScorecard's data and analytics to gain real-time cyber risk insights and define risk mitigation strategies for the Company's global client base as part of the collaboration. The companies will also work together on joint research to raise awareness of cyber risk and educate the market on risk management strategies.

"We are thrilled to be collaborating with Marsh McLennan, which understands that in order to remain competitive, you must be innovative," said Prashant Pai, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Strategic Initiatives at SecurityScorecard. "Given how quickly the cyber risk landscape evolves, business leaders must have access to the most up-to-date and comprehensive view of a client's cybersecurity posture."

"SecurityScorecard's data and analytics complement our proprietary insights, enhancing our ability to assist our clients in staying on top of emerging vulnerabilities and threats that may impact their businesses."
