    If you are considering BitSight Security Ratings as a portion or bulk of a larger vendor management project you will be well served in letting the risk scores be an indication of how closely you need to examine a vendor. However, you should not base your assessment solely on the risk score provided. The risk score is based on publicly available data and can be inaccurate.

    I recommend it especially for companies with sensitive data such as hardware, IT, information and financial services companies.I believe and we believe that having a deep look at a collaborator or new client is important to prevent future costly problems. Understanding that the relationship is as transparent as possible.I imagine that it could also be used in the assessment of credits to a potential client or business partner.

    Cons
    Bitsight Technologies
    • Since data is based on public registration IP and domain data can be stale depending on ISP/Domain registration update delays.
    • Correcting a false detection is a month-long endeavor and requires the company with the impacted score to clean up BitSight's data.
    • Customer service for incorrect data is convoluted and requires a deep understanding of domain registration to correct the data. The responsibility for correcting data is placed solely on the customer's shoulders.

    Alternatives Considered
    Bitsight Technologies
    BitSight Security Ratings ranks evenly with SecurityScorecard and both below OneTrust for our use case. We needed a platform that would let us define risk for our organization and weight scores differently based on data sensitivity. BitSight and SecurityScorecard are aggregate data that can provide insight into the security habits of a potential vendor and should be considered as an addition to most vendor management projects. However, they both provide metrics based on hygiene and not on data-defined risk. In concert with a platform to evaluate risk based on data and to inform the overall evaluation of a vendor, BitSight Security Ratings can be made to shine. Just understand that you may have to validate some data.
