What is the Immersive Resilience Score?
The Immersive Resilience Score is a single value that your organization can use to measure its overall cyber workforce resilience. The algorithm evaluates multiple factors using performance data from across the platform and enables you to understand:
- Your overall cyber resilience
- Trends and progress
- Comparisons to industry and best-in-class benchmarks
The Score not only provides visibility into your organization's current cybersecurity capabilities, but it also provides actionable recommendations to improve your resilience.
There is a common belief that people-centric cyber capabilities are not measurable. This may be true for legacy, in-person training, but granular lab and exercise data give us new insights. The Immersive Resilience Score uses advanced statistical techniques to demonstrate that resilience can be assessed, benchmarked, improved and proven in a clear, data-driven way.
Anyone assigned a Managerial platform role can view their organization's Score in the top left of the main navigation menu, from wherever they are in the platform:
Individual users do not have sight of the Score.
As a Manager, selecting the Immersive Resilience Score in the navigation menu will take you to the Score's dashboard.
What does it consist of?
The Immersive Resilience Score dashboard consists of the following:
- Immersive Resilience Score
On the top left, you can see your organization's overall Cyber Workforce Resilience in a single score, out of 1000 and status (e.g., Developing Resilience).
If you don't utilize all modules of our platform, there'll be a note to say that your score will be limited to X/1000 (e.g. to 800/1000) due to your modules).
This is because in order to help you achieve resilience, we have a four-step process that each module of our platform uniquely feeds into:
- Exercise: Use real-world simulations to evaluate and baseline team capabilities and decision-making.
- Benchmark: Evaluate cyber readiness compared to industry benchmarks and receive actionable recommendations.
- Upskill: Build capabilities across cybersecurity, engineering, application security, cloud security, and the broader workforce.
- Prove: Demonstrate risk reduction, resilience and ROI to your board, regulators, and customers.
- Platform modules
The Platform modules area will show your platform coverage. Having full platform coverage will enable you to be resilient across the entire organization.
- Progress over time
This simple graph depicting progress over time enables you to baseline performance and track progress.
- Benchmark
The Benchmark area allows you to compare your organization to benchmarks and "best-in-class" performers, allowing you to compare with organizations that have exactly the same platform modules as you, as well as those who utilize the entire platform to build resilience.
- Negative factors and positive factors
This section allows you to understand both the negative and positive factors that impact your organization-wide resilience.
From here, you can assign labs as well as schedule exercises to improve resilience.
In the positive factors area, you can view results, reports, or assessments evidencing your resilience in the particular areas listed.
The nine factors
The nine factors below form the basis of the Immersive Labs algorithm that calculates the Score:
