Today’s security teams face disconnected tools and scattered data, which makes managing cyber risk increasingly complex. With the rapid rise in ransomware, new CVEs, and a constant stream of emerging threats, it has become difficult to monitor not only an organization’s own security posture but also the security of its third- and fourth-party vendors. The recent GoAnywhere MFT CVE, similar to the MOVEit breach, highlights how quickly risk can spread across an interconnected ecosystem and reinforces the need for better visibility and coordination. Even a single unpatched CVE or zero-day vulnerability can trigger a massive domino effect of damages and losses.

The Bitsight Command Center was created to meet this challenge. It provides a single dashboard that unifies insights from across the Bitsight platform, allowing teams to see key metrics and risk indicators in one place. 

This launch marks a significant step forward in Bitsight’s ongoing evolution toward complete and connected cyber risk visibility. By bringing together previously fragmented views into one cohesive experience, the Bitsight Command Center helps organizations better understand, prioritize, and act on the risks that matter most.

The challenge: Fragmented views of risk

Cyber risk data lives in many places from performance metrics and vendor assessments to governance documentation and threat intelligence reports. Each of these perspectives offers value, but when they exist in separate tools and systems, it becomes difficult for security leaders to see how they connect. This fragmentation often creates blind spots between teams that rely on one another to understand and act on risk.

In many organizations, the SOC, GRC, and CTI teams operate in parallel rather than in sync. Each focuses on its own priorities, but without a shared view of the broader picture, critical insights can be delayed or lost in translation. Missed alerts, duplicated efforts, and inconsistent reporting are common outcomes of this disconnect, all of which slow response times and make it harder for CISOs to communicate risk clearly at the executive level.

The Bitsight Command Center begins to close this gap by offering a unified, high-level view of cyber risk across these functions. By pulling key information together from multiple parts of the Bitsight platform, it helps teams align on what matters most and present a clearer, more consistent picture to decision makers. As the experience evolves, this shared view aims to strengthen collaboration, accelerate insight, and bridge communication between technical and business teams—helping organizations move together toward a unified approach to managing cyber risk.

Introducing the Bitsight Command Center

A new dashboard inside the Bitsight platform surfaces key metrics and highlights from five core product areas.

  1. Security Performance Management: Provides continuous visibility into an organization’s security posture, helping teams track improvements, identify gaps, and measure program effectiveness over time.
  2. Continuous Monitoring: Delivers real-time insights into changes across your digital ecosystem, allowing security teams to detect emerging risks and respond before they escalate.
  3. Vendor Risk Management: Helps organizations assess and monitor the security performance of third- and fourth-party vendors to reduce supply chain and ecosystem risk.
  4. Trust Management Hub: Centralizes governance and documentation to streamline how organizations share and validate security information with stakeholders, customers, and partners.
  5. Bitsight Pulse: Offers a personalized, AI-driven stream of cyber threat intelligence content, from ransomware to breaking news, to stay informed about the latest cybersecurity events.

This is the first iteration of a unified experience that will evolve into an executive-level risk dashboard for CISOs, providing a connected view of organizational cyber risk across internal and external dimensions.

Why it matters

Recently, we have seen third-party vendors being targeted by threat actors leveraging vulnerabilities, in particular CVEs. Recently, CISA released an emergency directive pertaining to a vendor that was attacked through a CVE, leaving many of their clients at risk for data loss and further attacks. During this attack, source code was stolen leaving open the possibility for future successful attacks. Third-party vulnerabilities cause issues for anyone who uses their product or services. Ensuring you are not at risk for a third-party vulnerability is crucial to ensuring you are protected against attacks. Protecting yourself is important, but it is equally as important to ensure your data and PII are not at risk through third and fourth party vendors.

Bitsight researchers have examined why the manufacturing and finance sectors remain frequent targets for cyber attacks and how weaknesses within these industries can have downstream effects on their clients and partners. In a recent Bitsight TRACE report, the team highlighted the risks associated with industrial control systems (ICS) and operational technology (OT) devices, which are often left exposed to vulnerabilities such as CVEs, backdoors, and remote access trojans (RATs). Many of these devices operate on legacy infrastructure that lacks modern security controls, making them especially susceptible to exploitation.

For security, risk, and GRC teams:

The Bitsight Command Center gives these teams an immediate snapshot of program activity and emerging risks in one place. It eliminates the need to toggle between multiple dashboards, saving time and helping teams focus on the areas that need the most attention. With a unified view, they can more easily identify patterns, track progress, and communicate effectively across functions.

For executives:

The Command Center provides a strong foundation for organization-wide risk awareness and reporting. It connects operational metrics with strategic business outcomes, making it easier for CISOs and other leaders to translate technical insights into meaningful business context. This shared visibility supports more informed decision-making and drives accountability across the organization.

Key features and benefits

  • Unified dashboard: View data from five Bitsight products in one place.
  • Cross-product awareness: Quickly identify internal, external, and governance trends that need attention.
  • Dynamic metrics: Stay current with automatically updated insights and threat intelligence.
  • Quick navigation: Launch directly into products for deeper analysis.
  • Built for growth: Provides the foundation for future CISO dashboards and advanced reporting. 

How it fits the Bitsight vision

Bitsight’s mission is to deliver cyber risk intelligence that supports informed and effective business decisions. The Command Center represents a step toward achieving that goal by connecting insights across multiple areas of risk, creating a more comprehensive view of an organization’s security posture. This approach enhances Bitsight’s ability to quantify and operationalize cyber risk at scale through an integrated platform. It also reflects customer feedback and aligns with the company’s ongoing efforts to provide executive-level analytics, benchmarking, and visibility into emerging risk trends.

The road ahead

Today, the Command Center offers a unified dashboard that helps security and risk leaders monitor and understand their organization’s cyber risk posture. Over time, it will continue to develop into a more comprehensive tool that provides data-driven insights to support decision-making at the executive level. Future updates may include customizable performance indicators across all tools to allow CISOs and stakeholders to quickly focus on what matters most. Bitsight will continue to refine the platform in close collaboration with its users to ensure it meets evolving needs and delivers practical value.

One platform, one view, one mission

The Bitsight Command Center brings together insights from across the platform to help close the gaps between teams, tools, and risk domains. It gives organizations a clearer view of how different parts of their cybersecurity program connect, supporting better coordination and more consistent communication.

This launch marks an important step in Bitsight’s broader effort to reduce fragmentation in cyber risk intelligence. By offering a more unified perspective, the Command Center helps security, risk, and GRC teams work from the same understanding of their organization’s risk posture.

As the Command Center continues to evolve, its purpose remains the same: to help organizations turn disconnected data into shared insight, strengthen collaboration, and make more informed decisions about managing cyber risk.
