Stop Phishing Threats in Real-Time

Most attacks begin within 43 minutes of a phishing email being opened, leaving little time for lengthy manual triage. Swimlane Turbine brings message details, threat intelligence, authentication results, and user context into a single investigation to help analysts make decisions and respond faster.

Turbine reduces false positives, resolves known-benign reports, and routes uncertain or high-risk cases for review. When phishing is confirmed, automation can help remove related messages, block malicious indicators, revoke sessions, and escalate affected users or endpoints.

Save Analysts Time

Swimlane Turbine removes the manual handoffs, status updates, and follow-up tasks that slow phishing investigations. Agentic AI automation ensures reports move through a consistent process, with assignments, notifications, and case records updated as work progresses.

Analysts can spend less time managing routine activity and more time investigating complex threats, reviewing exceptions, and improving response procedures.

Improve Phishing Response

Automated playbooks help teams respond consistently and reduce phishing MTTR once a threat is confirmed. Swimlane Turbine coordinates actions across email, identity, endpoint, network, and case management tools.

Remove related emails, block malicious indicators, revoke sessions, reset credentials, and take action on affected accounts or endpoints. Route higher-impact steps for analyst approval before execution.

Phishing Triage Frequently Asked Questions

What is automated phishing triage?

Automated phishing triage takes a reported email, extracts the indicators that matter (headers, links, attachments, sender details, and authentication results), and enriches them with threat intelligence and case context. From there, it applies approved criteria to reach a verdict, coordinates the response, and records the outcome in a case. The strongest implementations don't force every report through the same process. They match the level of automation and AI to how much judgment each report actually needs, so analyst time goes to the reports that are genuinely ambiguous.

Swimlane parses the full message, including headers, links, attachments, sender details, and authentication results. It enriches that data with threat intelligence, reputation checks, user context, and the outcomes of prior investigations, then routes the report down one of three paths: deterministic automation for well-understood patterns, AI-assisted investigation where an analyst stays in control while Hero AI does the legwork, or a fully agentic investigation that reaches a verdict with zero manual configuration. As Swimlane validates outcomes, it codifies them into playbooks, so the next similar report resolves even faster.

Yes. Through supported email integrations and approved playbooks, Swimlane quarantines or removes malicious messages automatically once a case reaches a confident verdict. For higher-impact actions, Swimlane holds for analyst approval first, keeping a human in the loop without slowing down the reports that don't need one.

Swimlane connects to Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, secure email gateways, threat intelligence platforms, SIEM, EDR, XDR, identity, and ITSM tools out of the box. Swimlane Marketplace provides a list of all pre-built integrations and their connector actions. When a report touches a system without a pre-built connector, a data ingestion AI agent makes it easy to build a new integration on the fly.
