BackBox Launches Network Cyber Resilience Platform

BackBox, a leader in network cyber resilience, has formally introduced its latest innovation: the Network Cyber Resilience Platform. This launch marks a pivotal moment for the company as it concludes a record-breaking performance in 2024, showcasing the highest achievements in its history.

With the increasing complexity of network management—exacerbated by the demanding landscape of cybersecurity—back offices often find themselves bogged down by myriad tools, repetitive tasks, and insufficient resources. Recognizing this challenge, BackBox’s new platform aims to bolster the efficiency of network and security teams, ensuring the resilience and recoverability of critical network infrastructure.

Key Features of the Platform

According to BackBox CEO Rekha Shenoy, the platform is designed to enhance organizations' strategies for network cyber resilience. It simplifies the protection and management of network infrastructure, ensuring a consistent experience across devices and environments.

1. Automated Lifecycle Management

The platform streamlines the process of backing up, validating, and restoring network devices, facilitating quick recovery. Users can manage, upgrade, and patch devices from multiple major vendors through a single user-friendly interface, supported by over 3,000 pre-built automations.

2. Compliance Policy Management

BackBox enables organizations to run compliance checks, evaluating the resilience of devices while automatically correcting configurations that fail to meet industry standards. This feature is essential for maintaining regulatory compliance and internal policies.

3. Network Infrastructure Integrity

The platform empowers users to proactively detect potential vulnerabilities, offering options for automated mitigation or manual remediation through software updates. This approach not only safeguards infrastructure but also signifies BackBox’s commitment to security.

Maintaining a focus on data privacy and confidentiality, BackBox has achieved SOC 2 Type 2 Compliance, signifying adherence to high operational standards and security controls.

Support for DORA Compliance

Operating within the European Union mandates compliance with the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), and BackBox is well-prepared for this requirement. The platform includes over 2,300 customizable automations tailored to ensure adherence to DORA guidelines, minimizing risks associated with manual processes.
