Skybox Security and Exclusive Networks Announce Ne

SAN JOSE, Calif., May 17, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Skybox™ Security, a global leader in cybersecurity management, announced today a new partnership with Exclusive Networks for distribution of Skybox solutions in the Middle East, including the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region and Egypt. Exclusive Networks will deploy and service the Skybox™ Security Suite, a broad security management platform that provides comprehensive attack surface visibility and enables unified vulnerability management and firewall/security policy management across an organization’s entire network, including in physical, multi-cloud and OT environments.

“Driven by government outlays (with oil, gas and defence industries leading the charge), Middle East organisations are looking for trusted security advisors who can navigate digital transformations and reduce risks — especially as they deal with migration to the cloud, IT/OT convergence and a skills shortage. Skybox gives our business partners the tools needed to address these challenges — things like visibility, automation and advanced analytics,” said Oliver Downs, alliances manager for Exclusive Networks. “With Skybox, our partners have the power to more effectively manage security holistically within large, complex networks, including in physical, virtual, multi–cloud, and even OT environments.”

Exclusive Networks has been certified by Skybox for its expertise and ability to deliver the Skybox Security Suite, including any customization that is needed for specific security and business processes. In addition, they provide ongoing platform management, which includes but is not limited to:

• Continuous management of network and asset data imported into the Skybox network model
• Delivery of Skybox™ Health Check services which includes checking platform performance, performing data import and model validation, and performing operational checks
• Optimizing technology integrations with the Skybox platform (120+ now available) to improve ROI

Exclusive Networks is a leading value-added distributor (VAD) in the Middle East focused on IT security and data center transformation. They leverage a portfolio of vendors to assist in enabling hybrid cloud architecture and security, which is key to digital transformation and competitive success in the region. This includes integration with on-site/off-site configuration management databases (CMDBs) and ticketing systems for highly customizable reporting. By leveraging data from the Skybox Security Suite, Exclusive Networks can continuously monitor and quickly report on an organization’s overall security posture at all stages of a process.  

“An internationally renowned distributor, Exclusive Networks is able to fully develop and drive the Middle East channel for Skybox by providing a regional foothold and an understanding of both the commercial and technology sectors,” said Jono Clarke-Storey, EMEA channel director for Skybox Security. “Their experience in developing and scaling partnerships will allow us to provide compelling solutions for unique business challenges facing Middle Eastern companies.”
