Secureworks, a Top 250 MSSP, has released the Taegis Security Posture Dashboard to help organizations evaluate their security posture and prepare for cyberattacks, according to the company.The dashboard uses billions of security events that the Taegis platform analyzes daily to produce security insights, Secureworks said. From here, the dashboard provides benchmarking data from industry peers and market verticals. Organizations can use the benchmarking data to see how their security posture stacks up against their counterparts and industry and look for ways to improve it.The dashboard contains metrics that compare a current date range to a previous date range of the same size, Secureworks stated. For example, an organization can select a seven-day range. In this instance, the data will show the percentage difference for the last seven days versus the previous seven days. Meanwhile, these metrics can help an organization track its progress as it tries to optimize its security posture.
