Skybox Security Suite Reviews

Aside from Firewall Assurance, we use Vulnerability Control and Change Manager to prioritize and focus on key risks.

Focuses resources on business-critical remediation, as opposed to remediation that is quantity-based.

The platform provides insight and context from many threat logs and prioritizes them. 

There is not anything on the market that 

• correlates logs and threats and prioritizes 
• provides network maps
• provides change result context and resulting vulnerability 

for the network/enterprise.

As a reseller, I feel the marketing of this product could be better. It seems awareness is a bit low. We are trying to get the message out. I equate it to the early Palo Alto Networks days, where we had to market the concept of what a next-gen firewall was before we could get customers to buy in.

No issues with stability.

No issues with scalability.

Technical support is excellent.

We use several different solutions: Qualys, ServiceNow, Rapid7. We did not switch but have Skybox ingest all logs to provide an action plan.

The setup is straightforward; clear instructions.

FireMon, RedSeal.

Educate other IT teams about its value.

• Potential attack vector discovery
• Network troubleshooting
• Security check
• Compliance

Aside from Firewall Assurance, we use Network Assurance for network visualisation and troubleshooting. Currently, we are not using the Change Manager Module.

User interface. A web interface would be better.

• Change Tracking (audit logs)
• Access Analyser (access checks)
• Compliance

No issues.

No changes to check.

It is sufficient.

No.

The initial setup was easy.

No.

Check product compatibility. In our case, during implementation, we realised approximately 30 devices were not supported by the Skybox platform.

We use it for Vulnerability Management.

Standard scanning solutions are not able to give any priority in terms of associated risk from identified vulnerabilities. Understanding the real exposure from vulnerabilities and associated assets can reduce the time and investment needed to mitigate risks.

Also, by reducing the number of vulnerabilities that have to be analyzed and managed we have the chance to create a process of management.

Identifies direct exposed vulnerabilities.

Firewall Change Management has to be improved with rules provisioning on firewalls because that is where the competition is going and is what customers need.

No issues with stability.

No issues with scalability.

Technical support is good.

Initial setup was simple because we approached the project in small steps.

The pricing is okay.

We evaluated Tufin, Algosec for Firewall Assurance. We did not evaluate other products for VC.

Involve network, security, and operations at the same table for smooth project startup.

In my personal experience, I use a Skybox to do some proof of concept for clients. We show characteristics about how the client can connect their firewalls and network.

Within our company, three employees use this solution to run tests.

Skybox is a very busy environment because it shows me a client's or an organization's entire network. I can see everything. When I see an issue, Skybox allows me to create a new ticket to redirect to the pertinent area.

Honestly, I love this solution. As of now, although I have a minimum amount of experience with this solution, Skybox has been great.

I have been using this solution for six months.

This solution is very stable.

As we are new to this solution, we haven't attempted to scale it yet.

We haven't had to contact technical support yet. 

The initial setup was very easy. It took us one week to deploy it.

A developer helped install this solution — he was great.

Skybox is a great solution; I would absolutely recommend it to others. Overall, on a scale from one to ten, I would give this solution a rating of nine.

Our customers use it to control their network environment, firewall, and vulnerability equipment.

Skybox deployment is simple, and it's very useful. 

The cloud site could be better. They should provide some use cases to help users.

I have been using Skybox Security Suite for about one year.

The initial setup isn't so easy because many of our customers have issues getting all the configurations right. It's very complex.

I think the price is fair.

On a scale from one to ten, I would give Skybox Security Suite a seven.
