Founded in Denver, Colorado, we're building the definitive cybersecurity rating standard for US businesses — giving every organization the same objective security intelligence that Fortune 500 companies have always had access to.
In 2019, our founders were working in enterprise cybersecurity consulting when they noticed something troubling: the largest corporations had access to sophisticated, data-driven security intelligence platforms — but the thousands of small and mid-size businesses that make up the backbone of the American economy had virtually nothing.
A mid-size healthcare company in Denver had no way to objectively measure their security posture. A regional bank couldn't quickly assess the security of a new technology vendor. A growing SaaS startup had no credible way to prove their security controls to enterprise prospects demanding vendor assessments.
So we built it. Starting with a small team of certified security analysts in Denver, we developed a proprietary rating methodology that combines automated external scanning with expert human review — delivering the same caliber of security intelligence previously reserved for enterprise budgets, at a price every business could afford.
Today, Cybersecurityratings.com is America's fastest-growing cybersecurity rating platform, with 500+ organizations rated across all 50 states and a mission to become the definitive standard for how American businesses measure, communicate, and improve their security posture.
Our values aren't posters on a wall — they're the lens through which every rating, every report, and every client interaction is made.
"To democratize cybersecurity intelligence — making the security ratings and insights previously available only to large enterprises accessible to every American business."
Our ratings are data-driven, not opinion-driven. We built our methodology to be reproducible, transparent, and immune to commercial pressure. A score means what it means — period. If a client doesn't like their rating, the answer isn't to inflate it, it's to help them fix it.
Every score has a paper trail. We show our work — every data point, every finding, every weighted calculation. Our clients and their stakeholders deserve to understand exactly why a rating is what it is, not just accept a number on faith.
Automation scales, but humans think. Every assessment is reviewed by a certified analyst. We believe the human layer is what separates a genuinely useful security rating from a glorified port scan — and we'll never sacrifice that for speed or margin.
A high rating isn't our goal — a more secure client is. We measure our success by how much our clients improve over time, not by how many reports we deliver. Our consulting services exist because ratings alone aren't enough; real security requires real action.
The threat landscape never stops evolving and neither do we. We continuously update our methodology, add new data sources, and refine our models based on real-world breach data and analyst feedback. Yesterday's best practice isn't necessarily today's.
We're built for American businesses, by Americans. Our compliance frameworks, regulatory context, and industry benchmarks are calibrated to the US market. We're not a global product stretched to fit — we're purpose-built for the unique security landscape of US companies.
