If you are looking for a good way to score the results, I recommend
(with bias) the NSA IEM. It is flexible for any organization and can be
used no matter the scope. It is also a great mechanism for scoring
findings from all three areas, Management, Operational, and Technical.

(best). Then a overall percentage is given which
helps people put the score into perspective easily.
However, this can also be misleading... let's say test
by test you get 10 except for a couple tests for
router, firewall, and IDS for which you get very bad
scores. Looking at the overall score gives a false
sense of security to the casual reporter reader.
Hope this helps.

Is there a security criteria or matrix against which
we could grade
customer's pen test results? Like assigning them
grade between A to E
or 1 to 10.
