Dataminr and SecurityScorecard Partner to Deliver Preemptive Cyber Defense for the Enterprise

Today, Dataminr and SecurityScorecard entered into a joint MOU to bring a new class of integrated cyber defense to enterprise and public sector organizations. By combining SecurityScorecard’s industry-leading AI-accelerated Third-Party Cyber Risk Management (TPRM) solutions with Dataminr’s newly launched Client-Tailored Threat Intelligence (CTTI), the partnership gives security teams something they’ve never had before: a unified, real-time view of their exposure and the earliest possible warning when adversaries are moving to exploit it.

For security leaders navigating an increasingly hostile and AI-driven threat landscape, this combination is a game changer.

This announcement builds on an existing joint solution between the two companies: the integration of Dataminr’s financial risk quantification capability (RQ), following Dataminr’s acquisition of ThreatConnect—with SecurityScorecard’s Third-Party Risk Management solution. That integration already helps organizations translate third-party cyber risk into financial impact, giving risk and security leaders a shared language for prioritizing vendor risk. Today’s partnership extends that foundation further, adding real-time threat intelligence and external attack surface management to deliver a more complete picture of cyber risk—from financial exposure to active adversary activity.

The Problem: Exposure Is Growing Faster Than Defenders Can See

Modern enterprises are sprawling, interconnected, and exposed in ways that would have been unimaginable a decade ago. Cloud infrastructure, digital supply chains, and distributed workforces have expanded the attack surface beyond what any team can track manually. Meanwhile, threat actors—from financially motivated ransomware groups to nation-state actors—have become faster, more sophisticated, and more deliberate in how they identify and exploit weaknesses.

The statistics are stark. According to research done by the Cyentia Institute with SecurityScorecard, nearly 98% of organizations have been connected to a third-party vendor that experienced a breach. Over 63% of data breaches are linked to third-party access. Vulnerability exploitation now accounts for 20% of all initial breach access, up from 15% the prior year according to the 2025 Verizon DBIR. And when threat actors begin probing vulnerabilities or trading exploitation techniques in underground forums, the typical security team has no idea—until it’s too late.

It’s a structural gap: most security programs have tools that track their environment and tools that monitor threats, but no unified capability that ties exposure intelligence directly to real-time adversary activity. Security teams are left manually correlating disparate data sources, chasing alerts without context, and reacting to breaches rather than preventing them.

That gap is exactly what the Dataminr-SecurityScorecard partnership is designed to close.

What Each Company Brings to the Table

SecurityScorecard: Know Your Exposure

SecurityScorecard is the global leader in threat-informed third-party risk management (TPRM), securing the world’s supply chains. The company delivers a threat-informed approach to TPRM that enables organizations to drive out risk at the source with TITAN AI. The platform uses continuous visibility and AI-accelerated workflows to help organizations reduce third-party risk before incidents occur and respond with confidence when they do.

With SecurityScorecard, organizations will be able to automate the majority of the work traditionally required to manage vendor risk. TPRM, security, and risk teams will reclaim hours previously spent chasing vendors, managing spreadsheets, and manually reviewing assessments. By reducing manual effort by up to 95%, teams will scale their TPRM programs without hiring additional staff or increasing budget.

By continuously identifying exposures and enabling earlier remediation before incidents occur, SecurityScorecard will help customers achieve up to 75% fewer supply-chain breaches. At the same time, a 9x higher vendor engagement will allow vendors to respond more quickly and resolve issues before they escalate.

Because SecurityScorecard provides 99.9% accurate risk attribution with a near-zero refute rate, both internal teams and external vendors trust the findings. This gives security leaders the confidence to act quickly, strengthen compliance posture, and provide boards with clearer visibility into the organization’s cyber resilience.

Together, these solutions answer a critical question in any security program: What are we exposed to and how do we drive down risk across our vendor ecosystem?

Dataminr Client-Tailored Threat Intelligence: Know What’s Coming—Before It Arrives

Dataminr’s newly announced Client-Tailored Threat Intelligence (CTTI) solution is designed to answer the second critical question: What threats are moving toward us right now or our supply chain partners and are we exposed?

Client-Tailored Threat Intelligence is not a traditional threat intelligence feed. It is an AI-powered, agentic intelligence capability that processes more than 43 terabytes of data every day across over one million public, deep, and dark web sources—detecting the earliest signals of emerging threats while adversaries are still in the reconnaissance and weaponization phase.

What sets Client-Tailored Threat Intelligence apart is its ability to tailor that intelligence to each customer’s specific environment, providing an unparalleled view of internal and external landscapes. Dataminr’s Intel Agents don’t just inform you of threats—they contextualize them based upon your exposure and intelligence needs. They fuse external signals with a customer’s integrated internal telemetry, observed assets, and technology stack to deliver intelligence that arrives already mapped to the customer’s exposure. When a new exploit surfaces in underground forums, CTTI doesn’t just flag it—it tells analysts whether their specific systems are at risk or already affected, correlates it with relevant threat actors, malware, and MITRE ATT&CK techniques, and delivers that context directly into the tools analysts are already working in: their SIEM, EDR, or ticketing system.

The speed advantage is significant. Dataminr has detected early exploit chatter for critical CVEs 38 days before formal KEV disclosure, and its customers consistently report detecting threats 28 or more hours before traditional intelligence sources surface the same information.

Better Together: Integrated, Preemptive Defense

The real power of this partnership lies in what becomes possible when SecurityScorecard’s and Dataminr’s threat intelligence work together.

Consider the typical threat scenario: a threat actor begins targeting organizations in a specific sector, trading exploitation techniques for a known vulnerability in a common enterprise platform. Somewhere in that actor’s target list is your organization—or one of your key vendors.

With the joint solution:

• Dataminr detects the earliest signals of that threat actor’s activity—exploit chatter, infrastructure staging, targeting signals—to detect potential threats preemptively.
• SecurityScorecard has already mapped your attack surface and your vendor ecosystem, continuously monitoring for that specific vulnerability across your entire digital footprint—including third parties you may not be actively watching.
• Together, as a transformative capability of Dataminr’s Client-Tailored Threat Intelligence, those signals are contextualized against your specific exposure, as well as your third party partner exposure as highlighted from SecurityScorecard. Intel Agents surface the threat with your affected assets already identified, remediation priorities ranked, and relevant context assembled leveraging AI Ops-Agents to take action or contextualize directly into your workflows.

The result is a shift from reactive to preemptive defense. Security teams move from learning about a breach to stopping a breach from happening.

This matters especially for third-party and supply chain risk. SecurityScorecard’s continuous vendor monitoring surfaces and maps exposure across your ecosystem before threats materialize; Dataminr’s early warning capability means threats targeting your vendors can be detected before they become your problem. For organizations managing complex, interconnected supply chains—financial institutions, healthcare systems, critical infrastructure operators—this combination represents a meaningful advance in how cyber risk is managed.

Built for How Security Teams Actually Work

One of the intentional design principles behind this partnership is minimizing friction. Security teams are already stretched. The last thing they need is another console to log into, another portal to monitor, another tool to learn.

Dataminr Client-Tailored Threat Intelligence is built to deliver intelligence directly into the tools analysts are already using—overlaying context on top of SIEMs, EDRs, and ticketing systems without requiring new infrastructure or workflow changes. SecurityScorecard’s platform integrates with existing security ecosystems and can be deployed quickly, with vendor ecosystems brought under continuous monitoring from day one.

Together, the joint solution is designed to deliver value immediately—expanding coverage as an organization’s security program matures, without requiring a rip-and-replace of existing investments.

The Threat Landscape Isn’t Waiting

Adversaries are faster, more organized, and better resourced than ever. The 2026 threat landscape is defined by AI-accelerated attack development, expanded third-party exposure, and a growing gap between the speed of threats and the speed of defense.

Closing that gap requires more than more tools. It requires intelligence that is earlier, more relevant, and more actionable—delivered at the moment it matters, in the context that makes it immediately useful.

The Dataminr–SecurityScorecard partnership is built to deliver exactly that: the earliest possible warning, mapped to your specific exposure, before threats have the chance to materialize into incidents.
