Bitsight, founded in 2011, is a cyber risk intelligence company that applies advanced AI to an extensive external cybersecurity dataset. The firm pioneered the security ratings category and uses ratings to help organisations manage cyber risk across their own infrastructure and their third- and fourth-party ecosystems. It operates globally and serves customers in cybersecurity, supply chain risk management, enterprise IT risk and cloud security.
The company's cyber risk intelligence platform provides real-time visibility into cyber risk and threat exposure, helping security teams identify vulnerabilities, detect emerging threats, prioritise remediation and reduce risk across extended attack surfaces including infrastructure, cloud environments and digital identities. The platform is used by more than 3,500 customers, while its security ratings are applied across more than 68,000 monitored organisations.
Technical work spans AI and machine learning, threat detection and monitoring, external attack surface management, third- and fourth-party risk analytics, cloud security monitoring and digital identity exposure. Bitsight describes its approach as AI-forward and data-driven, with an emphasis on proactive risk mitigation and real-time intelligence, and it cites the industry's most extensive external cybersecurity dataset as the foundation of its products.
