Reporting is available with a paid SecurityScorecard plan. See our plans page for more information about levels of features and access.
Use Reporting Center as a base for generating, viewing, and sharing all of your Scorecard reports and analyses.
Reporting Center unifies in one place all of your Scorecard reporting and analysis resources. In previous SecurityScorecard platform versions, these resources were in separate locations and workflows. Unifying them makes reporting simpler and more efficient.

In Reporting Center, select one of the following tabs, depending on how you want to report:
