Baseline Cyber
Resilience

Measure, track, and control cybersecurity
performance and overall threat exposure.

Generic Baselines Are No Longer Enough

The lack of standardization in cybersecurity metrics and benchmarks make it difficult to establish
a common baseline for KPIs. The dynamic nature of cybersecurity means that KPIs must be constantly
updated and adjusted to remain relevant. Different organizations may have varying definitions of what
constitutes a secure environment; and different business priorities and risk tolerance levels.
Aligning cyber KPIs with the overall business strategy requires defining, quantifying,
and updating those KPI’s.

Challenges to Establish and Track Security KPIs

Lack of Quantified Benchmarks

KPIs based on general industry standards do not take business needs into account

Lack of Visibility

The complexity of modern security stacks makes it challenging to evaluate the effectiveness of current and future investments

Communication Barrier

Translation of technical metrics and outcomes into general business language can pose unique challenges

Balancing Security & Business

Business processes and operational necessities can have significant impact on security KPIs

Cymulate for Establishing
Cybersecurity KPIs

Risk scoring based on simulated attacks provides a validated,
quantified, and asset-mapped evaluation of an organization’s
threat exposure and tool stack efficacy.

Attack-based risk analysis identifies gaps in detection and
policy enforcement and accelerates incident response
blueprinting.

With clear visibility, monitoring exposure over time facilitates
balancing security and business priorities.
