Case Study: Gunderson Dettmer achieves continuous cyber risk visibility and enhanced client confidence with SecurityScorecard

Gunderson Dettmer - Customer Case Study

Gunderson Dettmer, an international business law firm serving high‑growth technology and life‑sciences clients, faced growing pressure to prove it could protect highly sensitive client data. Traditional point‑in‑time monthly and annual penetration tests delivered little ROI and left security gaps, so the firm adopted SecurityScorecard—using the ThreatMarket data engine and SecurityScorecard’s security ratings platform—to provide continuous, external visibility into its cyberhealth.

SecurityScorecard delivered continuous outside‑in threat intelligence and vendor risk tracking, enabling Gunderson Dettmer to monitor its attack surface in real time, benchmark M&A targets, and replace tedious due‑diligence questionnaires with instant security snapshots. The firm’s CRO, CTO and senior system administrator now use SecurityScorecard dashboards to spot typically one or two medium criticalities, prioritize and remediate issues faster, and confidently report a consolidated security rating to stakeholders—improving remediation speed, stakeholder confidence, and third‑party risk management.
