“The SOAR market is booming, with significant opportunity for Siemplify in the channel and I am excited to help in its commitment to amplify its ‘partner first’ strategy,” said Barmettler. “Combining a market-leading SOAR platform with a value-added partner ecosystem will enhance the security operations for enterprise and MSSP customers alike.”
