Fragmented data, siloed risk scoring, and poor cross-team collaboration are leaving organizations exposed. 68% fail to fix critical vulnerabilities within 24 hours, leading to breaches, compliance failures, and costly penalties. It's not just about patching anymore; it's about prioritizing the right vulnerabilities. Manual processes are costing businesses an estimated $48K per employee annually. There is a better way.

Join us for actionable insights from Swimlane's latest research report “Under Pressure: Is Vulnerability Management Keeping Up?", and discover how Swimlane hyperautomation for vulnerability response management can help you. 

In this webinar, our speakers will share:
1 - The biggest challenges facing your vulnerability management team and how to solve them
2 - Strategies to effectively score and prioritize vulnerability risks
3 - How AI and hyperautomation can transform your vulnerability management processes

Join Cody Cornell, Co-founder and Chief Strategy Officer of Swimlane, as he discusses why the autonomous SOC is the ultimate goal for organizations and how Swimlane is working towards that vision. While it's still a long way off, Cody shares how Swimlane is uniquely positioned to help organizations move closer to an autonomous, efficient Security Operations Center (SOC) every day. 
With billions of data points and integration across hundreds of security tools, Swimlane’s cloud services provide deep insights to drive security operations (SecOps) forward. Watch this video to hear from Cody about the journey towards an autonomous SOC and why organizations should never settle for "good enough" automation.

The Autonomous SOC: A Great North Star

Traditional SOAR solutions often fall short of their promises, leaving SOC teams overwhelmed and vulnerable. Discover how AI automation goes beyond these limitations to deliver faster, smarter, and more effective security operations. Learn how next-level AI capabilities empower your team to detect, respond, and mitigate threats like never before.
Watch now to redefine what’s possible for your SOC with AI automation.

Beyond SOAR’s Broken Promises: Unlock Next-Level Security with AI Automation

Believe it or not, the challenge for most SOC teams isn’t detecting more threats—it's cutting through the noise and complexity around the tools meant to protect you. While XDR, and bundled SIEM and SOAR platforms each bring valuable features, the idea of relying on an all-in-one solution is more myth than reality. What’s really needed is a clear understanding of how to use automation to take your SOC tools to the next level and optimize your defenses.

Join us for a deep dive into the strengths and limitations of XDR, SIEM and traditional SOAR.  We’ll show you how AI-enhanced security automation goes beyond SOAR to more effectively bridge the gaps between SOC tools. Stay tuned for a live demo of Swimlane Turbine to showcase these concepts in action.

Key takeaways will include:

-A clear understanding of XDR, SIEM, and automation’s roles in security
-Practical strategies to enhance threat detection and response with automation
-Best practices and real-world use cases for security automation
-How AI can elevate your security automation efforts
-Why integrating diverse tools is essential for comprehensive protection

If you're ready for a reality check on your cybersecurity stack, this is the webinar for you. Don't miss out on the truth behind the hype—and how to make your systems work better together.
