SALT LAKE CITY, Utah - January 31, 2006 - Skybox® Security, Inc., the leader in Security Risk Management (SRM), today announced that it has been named a "Hot Company" 2006 by Info Security Products Guide, one of the world's leading publications on security-related products and technologies from Silicon Valley Communications, USA.

Selected among a multitude of entrants, Skybox Security was chosen for its award-winning product Platform, Skybox View, the industry's first software solution to create a virtual model and staging environment of an organization's IT network security and access profile. The Hot Company award validates the need for IT Security Risk Management (IT SRM) solutions and further solidifies the company's leadership position.

"Skybox View transforms security into a disciplined business process, giving organizations the analytics required to understand their risk profile and improve the effectiveness of all layers of security," said Rick Justice, chief editor, Info Security Products Guide.

"On behalf of our customers and partners worldwide, we are honored to receive this prestigious industry recognition," said Edward Cooper, vice president of worldwide marketing for Skybox Security.

Skybox View is an integrated Platform of IT SRM applications based upon a modular, flexible and scalable framework. Today, the Skybox View Platform supports two applications: Skybox Secure and Skybox Assure. Skybox View soaks up infrastructure and security device configurations, evaluates vulnerability scan results, maps security and access controls, as well as classifies business assets. It uses this data to build a virtual model of an organization's IT infrastructure for the purpose of understanding potential threats, running attack and access simulations, analyzing the business impact and determining the right level of countermeasures. The virtual model can be safely attacked, changed and analyzed for the purpose of improving the security profile of the organization as well as validating the impact of proposed network configuration changes in harmony with network policies. This approach enables organizations to achieve a continuous evaluation and improvement of their risk profile as well as maximize the effectiveness of multiple layers of security.
