BitSight Security Ratings vs. Websense TRITON (Discontinued)

If you are considering BitSight Security Ratings as a portion or bulk of a larger vendor management project you will be well served in letting the risk scores be an indication of how closely you need to examine a vendor. However, you should not base your assessment solely on the risk score provided. The risk score is based on publicly available data and can be inaccurate.

If you want to prevent data leakage, you must setup TRITON to make it. You can find any attempts with many various ways - by email, removable device, endpoint agent etc. It gives you to nearly %100 protection!

• Security hygiene tracking over time

• It useful for the largest companies.
• Easy to manage it, after installation there's no need hardly to support it.
• Forcepoint's supports are always good, easy to communicate and quick to solve problems.

• Since data is based on public registration IP and domain data can be stale depending on ISP/Domain registration update delays.
• Correcting a false detection is a month-long endeavor and requires the company with the impacted score to clean up BitSight's data.
• Customer service for incorrect data is convoluted and requires a deep understanding of domain registration to correct the data. The responsibility for correcting data is placed solely on the customer's shoulders.

BitSight Security Ratings ranks evenly with SecurityScorecard and both below OneTrust for our use case. We needed a platform that would let us define risk for our organization and weight scores differently based on data sensitivity. BitSight and SecurityScorecard are aggregate data that can provide insight into the security habits of a potential vendor and should be considered as an addition to most vendor management projects. However, they both provide metrics based on hygiene and not on data-defined risk. In concert with a platform to evaluate risk based on data and to inform the overall evaluation of a vendor, BitSight Security Ratings can be made to shine. Just understand that you may have to validate some data.

I don't have any strong ideas comparing two products, sorry.

Incentivized

• Wasted resource hours cleaning up data to correct erroneous risk score.
• Extra time spent addressing calls from clients about erroneous risk score data.
• Extra time validating risk score provided by BitSight Security Ratings for potential vendors to ensure valid data.

Incentivized

• Releasing too many agent versions makes it difficult to deploy the whole organization.
• Not specifically, but we've found too many attempts about data leakage. It directly saved money.
