Overview

With the release of our Fast Score technology, we are now able to generate an initial score for a company new to SecurityScorecard in minutes rather than days. This allows you to get an understanding of any new company’s security posture without the previous lengthy waiting period.

As part of this accelerated process, this company will first get a provisional Scorecard with an interim score and findings. During this provisional period, some Scorecard functionality may be unavailable. After a few days, a provisional Scorecard will be fully scored and all functionality will be enabled.

Your scorecard continues to normalize dynamically over time, and your score may also fluctuate because we are always scanning the internet and discovering new issues. Learn more about our scoring methodology. Other circumstances may occasionally cause scoring volatility. We are committed to making continuous improvements to address this.

Companies already present in SecurityScorecard will continue to display their scores immediately when added to a portfolio
