What is Forest?

Forest is a security performance intelligence platform that turns your program into a measurable, benchmarked picture.

Last updated June 1, 2026

Forest is a security performance intelligence platform. It gives security leaders a measurable picture of their program: where you stand today, how you compare to peers, and what to do next.

Most security teams know they have gaps. What they lack is a defensible way to show where those gaps are, how serious each one is, and what fixing them is worth. Forest answers those questions with structure instead of opinion.

What Forest helps you do

  • Assess your security program against a consistent model

  • Benchmark your maturity by industry and organization size

  • Map the tools you own to the capabilities they support

  • Find gaps, overlapping coverage, and spend you can question

  • Produce recommendations and a roadmap you can defend to leadership

How it thinks about your program

Forest treats capabilities as the source of truth. A capability is a discrete security function or process, such as Patch Management or Identity Provisioning. Tools, contracts, and spend all connect back to the capabilities they support, so your view of the program stays anchored to what security work actually gets done.

Forest is built to be explained. Every score traces back to the inputs behind it, so you can stand behind the numbers in a board meeting or an audit.
