Mar 04, 2013 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) -- nCircle announced it has doubled the number of free scorecards in nCircle Benchmark.

According to a release, nCircle Benchmark lets organizations compare the performance of their IT security ecosystem.

"We believe comparative benchmarks can play a role in IT security by providing the basis for a general management discussion on the topic of security, and begin to build the bridge between business and technical issues," said John Katsaros, Principal, Internet Research Group. "In our research we found nCircle to be the leading provider of industry benchmarks and believe that its product line can serve as a good beginning for this." The scorecards are available for: -Vulnerability management -Configuration auditing -Patch management -Anti-virus and end point protection -Identity and access management -Center for Internet Security metrics "Security benchmarks are a relatively new discipline, but more organizations are beginning to rely on peer comparisons to communicate security performance effectively to their boards and executive teams," said Elizabeth Ireland, vice president of marketing at nCircle. "nCircle Benchmark's ability to pinpoint security performance, set operational goals and analyze security investment strategies has already proven to be an invaluable asset to our vibrant benchmarking community." nCircle is a provider of information risk and security performance management solutions.
