Understand posture scores

The posture score is a numeric value from 0 to 100 that reflects how well a domain, portfolio, or account complies with its active policies. DigiCert® Posture Management displays the score at 3 levels: per domain, per portfolio, and account-wide on the Posture dashboard.

A score of 100 indicates full compliance across all evaluated policies. When DigiCert Posture Management detects a policy violation, the score decreases based on the finding's severity and impact. DigiCert Posture Management tracks score changes over time. Use the historical trend to measure the effect of remediation work and identify degrading domains before they become critical.

Score health ratings

Each posture score carries a health rating label, ranging from High, Warning, Low, and Excellent.
