Jask & Exclusive Group team up for global roll out of AI-powered ASOC platform
Andy Travers of Exclusive Group
Exclusive Group, the global value-added services and technologies (VAST) group, has been appointed by Jask, the provider of the industry’s only Autonomous Security Operations Centre (ASOC) platform, to accelerate the market penetration of its disruptive and innovative technologies around the world.
Global cybersecurity and cloud transformation specialist Exclusive Group will manage the distribution of Jask’s ASOC Platform as part of a worldwide agreement, with the first wave of territories onboarding in Benelux, the Nordics and the USA, with more countries expected to be rolled out in the near future. The distribution agreement with Exclusive Group comes on the heels of the appointment of Jessica Couto as vice president of Worldwide Channel to broaden and deepen partner commitment.
The Jask ASOC platform is an Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning-based next generation Security Information Event Management (SIEM) for security personnel. The platform automates the collection, normalisation, correlation and analysis of alerts, helping security operations centre (SOC) analysts focus on the highest-priority threats through Jask Insights, to streamline investigations and deliver faster, real-time response. The platform is cloud based, open and extensible, enabling customers to build on their current investments.
Jessica Couto, vice president of Worldwide Channel, Jask commented on the partnership: “Jask enables SOC analysts everywhere to maximise their efficiency by focusing on distilled data insights – with immediate and highly valuable context. We are committed to working with Exclusive Group for rapid expansion of our next generation SOC technology via their strong channel network to enterprises across the globe.”
“The use of Artificial Intelligence for the automation of data in the SOC is offering much-needed relief to overwhelmed SOC analysts, and is helping organisations respond more rapidly to threats,” said Andy Travers, SVP Worldwide sales and marketing at Exclusive Group. “The Jask platform offers a revolution in security operations, bringing exciting new capabilities to our portfolio, and opening up new incremental revenue opportunities for our partners.”

The Jask ASOC platform automates alert investigations, freeing the SOC analyst to do what machines can’t. Security operations are designed around yesterday’s technology, not those responsible for protecting organisations from threats. As a result, analysts spend about 80% of their time managing, on average, 1700 alerts a day.
Through technology consolidation, enhanced AI and Machine Learning, Jask is removing technology limitations, freeing analysts to threat hunt with enhanced visibility and the confidence to focus on the highest-priority alerts.
The Jask Platform:
- Improves contextual visibility, exposes blind spots and initiates faster response times.
- Identifies, monitors and protects critical assets and data across legacy and point solutions.
- Enhances current investments through advanced correlation and analysis across multiple customer sources for improved context and threat identification.
With a mission to address the security gaps that restrict security modernisation efforts, Jask’s world-class engineering and data science teams apply decades of hands-on experience to drive advancements in autonomous SOC technology.
Backed by Kleiner Perkins, Battery Ventures, Dell Technology Ventures, Draper Nexus, NightDragon Security, TenEleven, and Vertical Venture Partners, Jask is modernising SOC operations for companies across the financial services, telecommunications, healthcare, and government industries.
