"Want to make your security officer squirm? Ask two questions: How effective are corporate security controls, and can you quantify the risks to current and future business processes? You can stop the hemming and hawing with Skybox View from Skybox Security, the pioneer in the art of quantifiable risk analysis. Skybox View soaks up infrastructure and security device configurations, correlates vulnerability scan results, maps links and dependencies among devices, and incorporates the dollar value of critical assets. It uses this data to model threats, run attack simulations, and analyze the impact of successful penetrations. The result is a demonstrable evaluation of your security controls and a justifiable price tag on potential exposures."

Chris Hoff, Chief Information Security Officer
Western Corporate Federal Credit Union May 2005
" Business-technology managers can benefit from looking at their infrastructure the same way hackers analyze computer systems and networks. The software attack simulation pays for itself, pinpointing exactly which vulnerability poses the greatest risk and which systems need the most attention. That translates into more secure systems in less time. There is no way you can do this in your brain."
"When it is patch Tuesday and you have large server farms and thousands of systems, you need to know if you're truly at risk. Skybox View provides WesCorp with what we describe as actionable intelligence to understand risk at a business level." Click here for Article
"Actionable intelligence is really critical in situations like this. You want to be able to make the most critical decisions in the least amount of time with the least amount of business impact. That's what Skybox does. Instead of looking at 400 servers, I can concentrate on three."
"We're focused on making Skybox the risk management center of our universe. We're building dashboards that show risk across the enterprise to gain a deep insight into our overall risk," says Hoff. "It's all made possible because Skybox correlates our relevant business information with our real-world risks. It's phenomenal technology. . . There is no way you can do this in your brain."

Head of Information Security
Standard Chartered Bank, Sept 2005
"Skybox provides us with the ability to model, in a repeatable way, how easy it is for a vulnerability on a particular box on a particular place in the network to be exploited. It will allow us to go from 100% patching down to 35% if we target just the most valuable boxes, and down to about 20% if we target just the most valuable resources that are also most at risk."

Leading Financial Services Firm, Sept 2005
"One of the deficiencies of firewall management, in a complicated environment, is that there's no way to know your risk before change is implemented. Skybox Assure fills that need."
"The idea is to reduce human error by conducting offline connectivity tests through the [Skybox] model rather than wait to be tested in the real world. This gives you the ability to see defects and mistakes in the model ahead of time.", Vice President of Network Management Engineering. Download Case Study . |
