Swimlane, an AI-enabled, low-code security automation company based in the US, has opened a regional cybersecurity innovation, and R&D centre in Hyderabad.
“The new location will serve as a strategic hub for product development functions and includes operational functions for engineering, customer success, support, and finance. The company aims to grow its engineering team resources from 75 engineers today to a team of 200 in 2024,” a senior company executive said on Tuesday.
The new Swimlane R&D centre will be the company’s largest concentration of engineering resources.
“The Hyderabad expansion will further advance the development of the Swimlane Turbine low-code security automation platform with complementary artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities that help overcome security alert fatigue, data overload, and chronic staffing shortages,” he said.
