Skybox Security has won the prestigious SC Awards Europe 2019 for Best Vulnerability Management. The announcement was made at the SC Awards Gala in London, presented by SC Media. In addition, Skybox took home the SC Award for Best Risk and Security Policy Management in the 2019 US ceremony, as well as the 2018 US and Europe ceremonies.
The recognition of Skybox as a best-in-class vulnerability management solution is of particular importance as it takes a unique approach to solve challenges typical in scan-and-patch programs. In order to fix the right vulnerabilities — those most likely to be used in an attack — Skybox:
- Collects information from a customer’s scanners, asset repositories, networking and security devices to provide a context-rich view of the environment in which vulnerabilities exist
- Creates a complete, current and centralized repository of vulnerabilities in the customer environment, including those in on-prem, multi-cloud and OT networks
- Matches vulnerabilities with available and active exploits in the wild
- Determines a vulnerability’s exposure by modeling the environment and analyzing potential attack paths to vulnerable assets
- Identifies best response options including patches and IPS signatures, as well as configurations or access changes
