Synqly

Synqly is a team of security and infrastructure veterans who feel the pain of security vendor integrations. With decades of combined experience leading business development and engineering efforts in the space, we’ve had the dreaded integration conversation over and over again. We’ve hunted for budget, begged for talent, and bartered with outsourcers to fill the void. We’ve also seen the benefits of integrations to customers and to the vendors who create them. We believe there must be a better way to build integrations to scale and ensure that every enterprise customer has a cohesive and integrated security architecture with integrations between products that are built securely and efficiently. The path forward is in deep partnership with the security and infrastructure vendors, eliminating redundancy, harnessing best practices, and measuring the benefit of the security ecosystem.
