SecurityScorecard's letter-grade ratings are well known — and so is the price tag. For a small practice or MSP, five figures a year plus a per-vendor fee is hard to justify when you monitor a few dozen vendors. Covenant gives you flat pricing, scores you can actually explain, and free HIPAA BAA tracking.

Competitor figures from public pricing pages and third-party quotes, 2025–2026. SecurityScorecard is a trademark of its owner; Covenant is not affiliated with or endorsed by it.
No per-vendor monitoring fee. Register 12 vendors or 120 — at the Team tier the price doesn't move.
A letter grade that drops without explanation is useless in an audit. Covenant shows the exact factor and delta behind every change, and lets you dispute it.
