A call for collaboration in cybersecurity

In his latest Security Now article, Swimlane CEO Cody Cornell calls for a new approach to cybersecurity. Citing several recent breaches, the impending cybersecurity skills shortage and the constantly growing and maturing threat surface, Cody discusses how automation and collaboration can level the playing field and help security teams do more with fewer resources.

The article delves into the difficulties surrounding managing cybersecurity risks and how overburdened and understaffed security teams perform time-consuming tasks, which causes them to focus on security silos instead of the big-picture threat environment, before discussing how automation can unlock improved collaboration.

The piece concludes by touting the benefits of security automation, orchestration and response and how SOAR can improve the value of security teams and better protect organizations’ most sensitive data.
