BackBox announced the upcoming release of BackBox 8.0, an advancement engineered to address the complex and often disparate challenge of securing modern networks that blend traditional on-premises hardware with burgeoning cloud-managed and SASE (secure access service edge) environments.
The release addresses the two major trends seen in today’s enterprise networks, saidd BlackBox: the inherent complexity of consistently enforcing cyber resilience across both on-premises and cloud-managed systems without a centralized orchestrator and the resulting lack of comprehensive visibility into diverse network configurations due to the proliferation of siloed management tools. BackBox 8.0 is designed to bridge these gaps, offering a cohesive platform for comprehensive security, compliance and automated lifecycle management.
“Network cyber resilience is not a one-size-fits-all approach. It is a complex issue, and each organization begins from a different starting point, with its unique vendors, tools and progress made,” said Rekha Shenoy, CEO of BackBox. “BackBox 8.0 is designed to accommodate this reality by providing a unified view of your modern network infrastructure, seamlessly integrating on-prem and cloud-managed elements.”
BackBox 8.0 introduces a new platform home page, offering a view of network cyber resilience across three pillars: automated lifecycle management, configuration compliance and policy management, and network infrastructure integrity. This provides instant insights into network adherence to best practices and security policies, facilitating proactive risk mitigation essential for maintaining a robust cyber resilience framework, said the company.
BackBox 8.0 will be generally available on July 9.
