We are the only security service providing visibility    into best practices and, in the process, we are revolutionizing    how security performance is measured and communicated at every    level of the organization.  <\/p>\n<p>    Because of the difficulties involved in gathering the data,    security benchmarking has been limited in scope and available    only sporadically to very specific audiences. This limited    benchmark data often lacked the critical contextual information    necessary to make it relevant to users. nCircle Benchmark    changed this dynamic using a patented technology that is    secure, anonymous and consistent.  <\/p>\n<p>    nCircle Benchmark metrics are refined into relevant, actionable    performance indicators and visualized into scorecards designed    for a variety of audiences, from CISOs to security analysts.
