About us
Founded in 2011, Bitsight began with a bold idea: to improve global cybersecurity through transparency and data. At the time, there was a critical gap in the industry — a lack of objective, continuous, and independently sourced measurements of cybersecurity performance. We saw an opportunity to change that.
Our founders envisioned a solution that would give companies, insurers, investors, and governments the insights they needed to better understand, communicate, and manage cyber risk.
That vision led to the creation of the security rating — the first of its kind — which revolutionized how cybersecurity performance is measured and laid the groundwork for one of the most comprehensive cyber risk datasets in the world.
With data at our core, Bitsight has grown into a fully integrated cyber risk intelligence platform. We process 540B+ cyber events, scan 4B+ IP addresses, collect 1B+ compromised credentials from the deep and dark web, and analyze security performance data from a network of 65K+ vendors worldwide.
This unmatched foundation powers the visibility organizations need to uncover hidden risks and make smarter, faster decisions. Spanning third-party risk management, external attack surface management, and cyber threat intelligence, Bitsight enables organizations to automate processes and manage risk with confidence.
Today, more than 3,500 companies, insurers, investors, and governments rely on us to detect, prioritize, and mitigate threats — across both their own environments and their third-party ecosystems.
