Phantom is the only security automation & orchestration platform that addresses everything from preventative protection and incident response to regeneration of the environment. Phantom streamlines security operations through the execution of digital “Playbooks” which significantly cuts down on time spent utilizing the dozens of point products found in typical enterprise security environments. Phantom doesn’t replace existing security products, but instead makes a company’s investment in them smarter, faster and stronger. Simple actions can be automated from within Playbooks thus allowing Phantom to act as an “operating system” for an organization’s numerous security products.
Phantom enables organizations to automate on arbitrary security data such as incidents, threat indicators, vulnerabilities, emails and more. Additionally, it consumes and operates on JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) internally, making it extremely flexible and giving security operations full access to the contents of the security data for the purposes of automated decision-making.
Going one step further, Phantom executes investigative and containment actions to control the environment and remediate security events. Customers can either push data to the platform, or pull it from a number of externally supported SIEM or analytics tools. Phantom currently provides integration with over 40 of the industry’s leading security solutions.
How we are different
• Phantom is the first purpose-built, community-powered security automation and orchestration platform that helps security operations realize the full potential of their investments.
• Focusing on enhancing security operations, Phantom achieves in seconds what may normally take minutes or hours without replacing existing security products.
• While not strictly open source, Phantom is expandable. Phantom Apps allow you to create connectors to in-house or more obscure security technologies and abstract their APIs back to the platform. Phantom Apps are Python modules, allowing anyone to expand the platform and contribute Apps to the Phantom App store.
About this category: Vulnerability Management
The Cybersecurity Excellence Awards recognize vulnerability management products. The category covers products that find vulnerabilities in software, systems and infrastructure and track each one through to a fix.
An independent jury of security practitioners, analysts and CISOs scores each nomination on leadership, innovation and impact. Each nomination competes in its category against organizations of similar size and region. Entry packages, sponsorship and public votes do not affect the jury's scores.
A separate award decided by public vote, independent of the jury awards. Each completed share of a profile on LinkedIn, Facebook or X counted as one vote.
