When CISOs have only partial information, they can’t analyze data in context, which limits their ability to quickly make decisions about where to direct scarce resources

The firm also proffers Skybox Vulnerability Control that goes beyond scanners, using attack surface context and analytics to fill in blind spots, prioritize risks, and focus remediation efforts fast. Further, this offering combines data from scanners, vulnerability, and threat intelligence sources and more to bring all vulnerabilities into the light. With total network visibility and continuous threat information, the solution automatically analyzes business risks and prioritizes remediation activities within the context of the users’ network.

In one instance, SkyBox Security helped a multinational oil and gas provider to reduce the time of vulnerability exposure. Prior to the implementation of the solution, the customer's IT security team conducted regular network scans on core servers. However, scanning critical services across the firewall infrastructure caused disruption on their network. Therefore, the client was seeking an alternative to traditional scanning without impacting network operations. By using Skybox Vulnerability Control, the client was able to identify vulnerabilities and execute remediation faster and more accurately, reducing the window of exposure from weeks to mere hours. The solution reduced false positives, and allowed the team to shift scarce security resources to other priorities.

Skybox is planning toward expanding its footprint in the security and risk management arena by innovating its solutions to assure customer satisfaction. The firm is enroute to establish itself as a medium that exposes cyber attacks by helping its customers gain clarity on the state of their information security and IoEs.
