Cision: BitSight, the Standard in Security Ratings, and Solactive, a German index engineering firm, today released new research demonstrating that a company's cybersecurity performance is an indicator of business performance. Analysis shows that indices composed of well-performing BitSight-rated companies outperform their respective benchmarks by 1% to 2% annually. For certain sectors, such as U.S. Technology, well-rated companies outperform the benchmark by 7% per year. The findings are an endorsement for today's introduction of the Solactive BitSight Cyber Risk Index, a financial index that will enable investors to invest in companies who are top cybersecurity performers as measured by BitSight.
