Skybox wins ‘Best Vulnerability Management Solution’ at SC Awards Europe 2022
Industry-leading Skybox capabilities including vulnerability prioritization, exposure management, cyber risk quantification, and a proprietary network model put Skybox ahead of the competition.
I am delighted and very proud of our collective accomplishment that is acknowledged by this award. The recognition reinforces what this team – and Skybox customers – already know: that the industry’s most prescriptive approach to exposure analysis is distinct in its ability to ensure users stay a significant and vital ‘step ahead’ of cybercriminals.”
For modern organizations that are feeling exposed in an increasingly risky and aggressive threat landscape, the Skybox solution is not just another vulnerability management tool. It provides a proactive and effective way to close the gap.
Skybox’s Vulnerability and Threat Management solution leverages the company’s proprietary network modeling, exposure management, and path analysis to provide precise exposure analysis and vulnerability prioritization and management.
Among its key differentiators is the solution’s ability to visualize the attack surface and identify exposures across disparate environments – including IT, hybrid, multi-cloud, and even operational technology (OT) assets. Skybox also continues to evolve this solution and recently added the ability to quantify cyber risk exposure in financial terms to help organizations pinpoint cyber risks with the highest potential financial impact.
The industry’s most advanced vulnerability management solution
Skybox’s approach to vulnerability and threat management delivers four essential benefits for customers:
(1) Skybox aggregates vulnerability data from all assets (including IT, OT, and multi-cloud) and every corner of the network. Unique scanless detection capabilities and active scanning deliver a 360-degree view of the attack surface.
(2) Daily, human-curated threat intelligence is fed into the Skybox network model. Exposure, CVSS severity, exploitability, asset importance, and automated cyber risk quantification capabilities including financial impact – provide an exact risk score used to prioritize action where it matters most – proactively reducing your risk of attack.
(3) Skybox identifies and automatically recommends effective, practical options to reduce risk. Available patches are aggregated by Skybox threat analysts daily, however remediation options go beyond patching and include configuration changes, network segmentation, and more. Attacks, including zero-days, can be prevented, even when patches are impractical or unavailable.
(4) Integrations with ITSM tools assist in implementing – and maintaining – remediation through ongoing oversight. The solution automatically generates tickets, tracks performance versus SLAs, keeps stakeholders apprised, and ensures issues are promptly addressed.
Focusing on the top 1% of 'perfect storm' vulnerabilities has been a game-changer that makes the most out of security resources. Enterprise-wide discovery means fewer silos, so CISOs sleep better at night."
Thanks to SC Awards Europe for its recognition, and congratulations to our Skybox team for a job well-done.
