According to CEO Nir Polak, Exabeam plans to fully integrate SkyFormation by establishing a new Israeli office around the SkyFormation team.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In a press release, Exabeam describes how they plan to use the SkyFormation acquisition to supplement their cloud security capabilities and solutions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Exabeam successfully raised $75 million in a Series E funding round in May of this year; to date, Exabeam has raised $190 million in funding.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify\"><b>Why The SkyFormation Acquisition Matters<\/b><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The cloud dominates all modern discourses concerning cybersecurity and SIEM. Few enterprises, especially global ones, continue to use strictly on-premises environments. Instead, they continue to migrate to hybrid or pure cloud infrastructures.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In many ways, it\u2019s easy to see why. The cloud offers far more communication, collaboration, speed, and productivity\u2014all of which contributes to a stronger bottom line.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">However, the cloud presents enterprises with dangerous cybersecurity risks. As a result of cloud migration, your enterprise\u2019s digital perimeter becomes more porous. Moreover, your infrastructure scales with its migration, which allows hackers to more easily conceal their threats.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As a result, hackers\u2019 dwell times can extend into months if not years on cloud environments. Of course, the longer an attack lingers on your network, the more damage it does.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Thus it comes as no surprise that <a href=\"https:\/\/solutionsreview.com\/security-information-event-management\/siem-buyers-guide-security-information-and-event-management\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">SIEM<\/a> providers increasingly turn their attention to securing the cloud. Many providers design their solutions to expand their log aggregation to bring greater visibility to the cloud, and facilitate their alerting systems to fit.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">You can read the full press release by Exabeam <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.exabeam.com\/pr\/exabeam-acquires-skyformation-as-it-continues-to-invest-in-cloud-security-solutions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">here<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>Widget not in any sidebars<br \/><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SIEM solution provider Exabeam announced their acquisition of SkyFormation.
