1. A computerized system for determining the effectiveness of information security technologies, comprising:

  • a computer apparatus including a processor, a memory, and a network communication device; and

    an information security analysis module stored in the memory, executable by the processor, and configured for;

    determining a security score for each element of a security technology defense matrix, each element of the security technology defense matrix being associated with one or more deployed security technologies, wherein a first dimension of the security technology defense matrix corresponds to a plurality of resource classes, and a second dimension of the security technology defense matrix corresponds to a plurality of security operational functions;

    determining a defense-in-depth score Dresource for each resource class;

    determining a defense-in-depth score Doperation for each security operational function;

    based on determining the defense-in-depth score Dresource for each resource class and determining the defense-in-depth score Doperation for each security operational function, determining an aggregate security score; and
