The Value Dashboard: Measure and Showcase Your Security Impact

Mend.io Team March 26, 2025 2 min read

Application security metrics that matter

Security teams today face increasing pressure to quantify the effectiveness of their application security programs. Whether it’s justifying security investments to leadership or demonstrating compliance with regulations like PCI DSS, HIPAA, and GDPR, teams struggle to showcase the real impact of their security efforts. Without clear, actionable data, proving that an AppSec program is actively reducing risk becomes a challenge.

That changes today.

We’re excited to introduce the Mend.io Value Dashboard, a powerful new feature designed to help security leaders visualize and communicate the value of their security initiatives. The Value Dashboard provides clear remediation insights and tracks key security metrics like Mean Time to Remediate (MTTR) and overall Finding Reduction %, so teams can confidently demonstrate progress in securing their applications.

Key benefits of the Mend.io value dashboard

Customizable remediation dashboard

Gain targeted security insights with granular filtering options. Analyze remediation trends by scan engine, severity level, scope, and time frame to track the progress of security initiatives at a project-specific or organization-wide level.

MTTR analysis and remediation tracking

Monitor security posture with an intuitive timeline that visualizes how remediated, suppressed, and open findings evolve over time. Identify bottlenecks, measure effectiveness, and refine security strategies based on real data.

Exportable insights for stakeholder reporting

Easily export the dashboard to share actionable remediation data with leadership and stakeholders. The export feature supports clearer communication, better decision-making, and smoother compliance reporting.

Simplified compliance demonstration

Meeting regulatory requirements has never been easier. The Value Dashboard provides quantifiable proof of security actions in place, ensuring teams can confidently demonstrate compliance with PCI DSS, HIPAA, GDPR, and more.

Why it matters

Security leaders often face skepticism from executives and board members when requesting resources for AppSec programs. The Mend.io Value Dashboard eliminates uncertainty by providing clear, visual proof of an organization’s security improvements. Instead of relying on anecdotal evidence or manual reports, teams now have an automated, data-driven way to showcase the ROI of their AppSec investments.

With a streamlined, interactive interface, security professionals can shift the conversation from “What are we doing?” to “Here’s the measurable impact we’ve made.”

With the Value Dashboard, Mend.io continues to empower security teams with actionable insights that drive real results. We can’t wait to see how you leverage it to strengthen your security posture and demonstrate the true value of your AppSec program.
