Description of UpGuard

Companies like Intercontinental Exchange, Taylor Fry, The New York Stock Exchange, IAG, First State Super, Akamai, Morningstar, and NASA use UpGuard's security ratings to protect their data, prevent data breaches and assess their security posture. UpGuard Vendor Risk (https://www.upguard.com/product/vendorrisk) can minimize the amount of time your organization spends assessing related and third-party information security controls by automating vendor questionnaires and providing vendor questionnaire templates. We can help you continuously monitor your vendors' external security controls and provide an unbiased security rating. We can also help you instantly benchmark your current and potential vendors against their industry, so you can see how they stack up. For the assessment of your information security controls, UpGuard BreachSight (https://www.upguard.com/product/breachsight) can monitor your organization for 70+ security controls providing a simple, easy-to-understand security rating and automatically detect leaked credentials and data exposures in S3 buckets, Rsync servers, GitHub repos and more. The major difference between UpGuard and other security ratings vendors is that there is very public evidence of our expertise in preventing data breaches and data leaks. Our expertise has been featured in the likes of The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg, The Washington Post, Forbes, Reuters, and TechCrunch. You can read more about what our customers are saying on Gartner reviews (https://www.gartner.com/reviews/market/it-vendor-risk-management/vendor/upguard), and read our customer case studies (https://www.upguard.com/customers).

Convenient and easy way at spotting potential security issues

We have been able to find some vulnerabilities that we didn't know were there before using this service! It has made our life easier by giving us more information about what is going wrong with certain servers or applications. Also it gives me peace of mind knowing my server/applications are safe from malicious threats. Nothing in particular but overall very good product for sure worth trying out as its free. If you're looking into securing your website then definitely try them out they can…

Pros
  • Free
  • Easy access all services via one platform
  • Very easy user interface & great support system.
  • Ease at viewing results, logs etc..all within their portal site (not needing any other software)
  • Highly accurate vulnerability reports no false positives whatsoever even when I've provided incorrect credentials multiple times
Cons
  • I will keep silent

UpGuard Anti Maleware does what I want AND looks good

We've been using upguard for several years now in our organization and have not had any issues with it at all! It is easy enough that even someone who has never used an anti-malware tool before can figure out how to set everything up correctly without needing assistance from IT or anyone else within your orgnaization. Our clients are very happy about this because they don't need help setting things up anymore either - which saves them time too!! Honestly? Nothing so far but we do plan on…

Pros
  • This makes me feel more confident running my business knowing security measures will be taken seriously by their staff members instead having something ugly just sitting around collecting dust somewhere hidden behind firewall logs..and no one ever uses those tools anyway lol :P.so why clutter screenspace?! :) Also love seeing what threats
Cons
  • Will fit

A tool to evaluate vendors based on risk scores for security and compliance was exactly what I was looking for. It provided a great way to get a holistic view of my vendors across many aspects of security and compliance, including risk analysis and penetration testing. I had been using something similar for a couple of years but it didn't offer such comprehensive coverage and integration with other tools. It's very useful if you're managing multiple services at once because there's no single…

Pros
  • Comprehensive coverage
  • Integration with many other security/compliance tools
Cons
  • Cost
  • No customization options
  • They have an easier time of selling to enterprise customers than SMB
