Swimlane Named a "Breakout Vendor" in Security Automation and Orchestration (SAO)

LOUISVILLE, Colo., April 26, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Swimlane (https://swimlane.com), a leader in automated incident response and security orchestration, today announced it was named a Breakout Vendor by Forrester Research in its April 2017 Breakout Vendors: Security Automation and Orchestration (SAO). According to the Forrester report, authored by Joseph Blankenship, "Security and risk (S&R) professionals are under increasing strain as they struggle to keep pace with cyberthreats, manage a complex technology environment, and hire experienced staff."

SAO is defined by Forrester as "Technology products that provide automated, coordinated, and policy-based action of security processes across multiple technologies, making security operations faster, less error-prone, and more efficient." According to Forrester, "The ability to integrate with clients' existing security infrastructure is key for the adoption of SAO. Swimlane integrates with multiple security technologies by using an API-first architecture that enables clients to create their own integrations that expand beyond those included with the platform."
