Companies can continually evaluate and strengthen their
security posture relative to their industry peers
ATLANTA, March 22, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Secureworks®
(NASDAQ: SCWX), a global leader in cybersecurity, today announced
the launch of its Taegis™ Security Posture Dashboard. Using the 600
billion security events Taegis analyzes daily, the Dashboard
empowers customers to understand their cybersecurity posture and
how resilient they would be in the face of a cyberattack. These
powerful insights provide benchmarking data for customers with
industry peers, as well as across market verticals, to strengthen
cyber defenses, decrease the risk of attack, and drive actions that
close the cyber readiness gap.

Customers of all sizes struggle to understand the best way to
align their cybersecurity spending with business objectives or how
to report to their boards on risk, priorities, and investments.
This leads to misalignment of business risk and company objectives
as well as wasted security budgets. To overcome these challenges,
the Security Posture Dashboard uses anonymized data from more than
1,600 Taegis customers to provide clear visibility into cyber risk
postures relative to peers. Companies can build data-driven,
long-term security strategies that evolve with business needs and
bolster cyber defenses by optimizing cybersecurity spending and
ROI.
"As cyberattacks increase and we see more regulation around the
globe, companies cannot afford a 'check the box' approach to
cybersecurity. Executive boards want to know what their exposure
is, where the risks lie, what steps are being taken to advance
cyber defenses and how they're keeping pace with their industry,"
said Steve Fulton, President,
Customer Success, Secureworks.
"Our customers strive to be market leaders. Using proprietary
industry risk benchmarks to inform data-driven conversations and
decisions about managing cyber risks, they can ensure their cyber
postures are consistently on upward trajectories – keeping their
businesses and missions safer," said Fulton.
The Secureworks Security Posture Dashboard enables businesses to
understand their cyber readiness and gaps within their cyber
defenses by providing insights across the following areas:
- Event pipeline – A snapshot of how ingested security events are
being triaged and handled
- Alerts per Endpoint – Gauge environmental activity and see how
alerts compare to the industry
- Investigation response – Assess how rapid and impactful their
investigations are
- Sensor coverage – Quickly identify where device health may need
review
- Confirmed security threats – Understand if more or fewer
incidents are being experienced compared to industry peers
- Taegis detection updates – Stay on top of countermeasures that
are being deployed to protect the organization
The Dashboard contains metrics that compare the current date
range to the previous date range of the same size. For example, if
seven days is selected, the data will show the percentage
difference for the last seven days versus the previous seven days.
These metrics facilitate an organization's ongoing progress.
Industry comparisons are enabled by anonymized data from across the
Taegis XDR customer base, including MDR customers using Taegis
ManagedXDR.
"The threat landscape is constantly evolving, and keeping ahead
of the adversary requires constant vigilance. The ability to
prioritize and align investments to counter the biggest risks and
vulnerabilities, and then report on progress made to the board, is
invaluable," Fulton concluded.
The Security Posture Dashboard is available now and is free to
all Taegis customers and partners, including MDR customers using
Taegis ManagedXDR.
