About SightGain
SightGain is the only risk management solution focused on cybersecurity readiness. Unlike typical solutions that estimate readiness using patching statistics and compliance checklists, SightGain tests and measures readiness using real-world attack simulations in a customer’s live environment. These results are used to make improvements across cybersecurity people, process, and technology. Once current readiness is tuned, SightGain combines empiric readiness data with business information and threat intelligence to prioritize long term investments.
