Skyport Systems *

Skyport Systems was a cloud infrastructure security startup, backed by GV and other investors, best known for SkySecure — a hyperconverged secure server appliance that enforced workload isolation and firewall policy in dedicated hardware for critical enterprise data-center workloads. Cisco acquired the company on January 24, 2018 and did not continue the standalone SkySecure offering, so Skyport Systems no longer operates as an independent company. Enrichment found no live developer surface: skyportsystems.com is a parked/for-sale domain and skyportsystems.net now serves an unrelated cybersecurity news aggregator. This profile is retained as a historical portfolio-lead record (surfaced as a GV portfolio company) with no public API, developer portal, or SDKs to catalog.

Skyport Systems * is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Enterprise, Security, Infrastructure, and Cloud.
