Our classification, not the publisher's statement. Best suited for, not only for.

CyberRatings.org has eliminated the paywall previously restricting access to its cybersecurity product test reports, making them freely available on its website.

This change allows a wider range of users, including enterprises, vendors, and analysts, to review independent data and assessments without cost barriers, supporting more informed cybersecurity decisions.

The reports encompass evaluations across various categories such as enterprise and small business firewalls, security service edge, software-defined wide area networks (SD-WAN), and Artificial Intelligence (AI) protection, providing data on product performance in real-world scenarios.

CyberRatings.org has pursued independence and transparency since its founding and formalized a testing partnership with NSS Labs earlier in the year to uphold rigorous and credible assessments.

Vikram Phatak, CEO of CyberRatings.org, said, “A rising tide lifts all boats. By opening access to our reports, were inviting the global cybersecurity community to learn from our data, compare results, and collectively improve defenses.”

All test reports can be accessed without charge through the organizations website.
