Security News > 2020 > March > Swimlane’s SOAR solution is patented for its many security posture combinations and use cases

With infinite security posture combinations and use cases, Swimlane's SOAR solution was built from the ground up to transform an analyst's critical day-to-day responsibilities from insurmountable to exciting and effective.

"Organizations are coming to the realization that staffing up to solve for the overwhelming amount of security and intelligence data they see daily is an unsustainable path. Applying automation broadly across every security use case is the only way organizations will be able to battle technology sprawl and protect their rapidly expanding attack surface," says Cody Cornell, CEO of Swimlane and patent co-inventor.

According to Gartner's 2019 Market Guide for Security Orchestration, Automation and Response Solutions, "By year-end 2022, 30% of organizations with a security team larger than five people will leverage SOAR tools in their security operations, up from less than 5% today."

Rather than requiring organizations to conform to a set of specific workflows, this capability opens up the potential for nearly endless SOAR use cases for every unique business and SOC. "Swimlane Director of Engineering and patent co-inventor Brant Wheeler adds,"No organization can staff an expert for every security scenario, but breaches reported in the news are destructive to small and large business alike.

In stark contrast, a Swimlane-enabled analyst is able to spend 30% of their time researching new threats and attack methods, 40% engaging in proactive activities to increase the security posture of their organization, 20% responding to security incidents, and 10% growing skills and qualifications.
