Skybox View introduces an automated four-step Exposure Risk Management process that allows security professionals and business executives to understand their real risk levels in near-real time: 1.0 Models the environment: Creates a virtual model of the entire IT environment--including data from scanners, network management systems, firewall and router configurations, business logic and security policies -to predict all possible access routes. 2.0 Simulates Attack Scenarios: Runs attack scenarios to zero-in on the real exposures, the primary vulnerabilities that lie directly on an attack path to critical business applications and are reachable and exploitable. 3.0 Calculates Business Risk: Business risk analytics are applied by assessing both the attack likelihood and damage potential, based on breaches and losses of confidentiality, integrity or availability. 4.0 Plan Exposure Remediation: Presents all possible remediation measures and the minimum steps required to prevent the entire attack. Powerful what-if scenarios can help simulate the effect of changes before applying them to the IT infrastructure. Skybox View is comprised of three components: Skybox View Collector, Skybox View Server and Skybox View Manager.
