Dispatch helps effectively manage security incidents by deeply integrating with existing tools used throughout an organization (Slack, GSuite, Jira, etc.).
Dispatch leverages the existing familiarity of these tools to provide orchestration instead of introducing another tool.
This means you can let Dispatch focus on creating resources, assembling participants, sending out notifications, tracking tasks, and assisting with post-incident reviews; allowing you to focus on actually fixing the issue.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- Provides a dedicated incident report form that users throughout the organization can submit to engage incident-related resources.
- Adept at building a knowledge base of incident data
- Uses the same configuration as Starlette, a lightweight ASGI framework/toolkit, which is ideal for building async web services in Python.
