The Problem
Communicating business relevant security metrics is difficult for the best security teams. The first challenge is to transform technical statistics into meaningful metrics that communicate business outcomes. The second challenge is to present and communicate metrics in consistent and compelling visuals to translate the control environment into business importance.
The Solution
The above challenges inspired us to develop Third Defense Metric Manager. To facilitate selecting business relevant metrics, Metrics Manager contains a repository to reduce the time to select metrics. Metrics Manager also provides a visual data entry screen to organize and document baselines, current values, and metric targets. Metrics Manager automatically generates the Master Security Index, an overall rollup of individual metrics to communicate the trend of information security to business and IT stakeholders.
Benefits
- Reduced metric definition time.
- Consistent data entry for baselines, values, and metric targets.
- Compelling Visuals: communicate actual to expected progress for individual metrics. Plus, demonstrate the overall trend of security through the Master Security Index.

- Metric Management
Define baselines, enter actual values, and define expected targets over time.
- Reporting

Security of Your Data
As security professionals, we want you to understand how we design our applications to protect your data. Customer information is encrypted both in transit and when stored on the server. In transit, we use SSL with strong ciphers and keys of at least 128 bits. On the server, we use AES with 256 bit keys. Each customer has a unique master key used for encrypting and decrypting data, and this key is encrypted using each user's credentials before being stored in the database. Therefore it is impossible for third parties to read any data even with full access to the live database. Additionally, we will gladly answer any security-related questions you may have about the application or its infrastructure. If you require a third-party security report, we will arrange for one to be delivered to you as soon as possible.
