Case Study: Peerlyst builds a thriving IT security social network with Zymr

Peerlyst onboarded thousands of security professionals in 6 months with Zymr

Peerlyst, a leading online information security community, faced challenges in developing a specialized, Quora-style social network for IT security professionals. They needed to build a platform that enabled real-time social integrations and gamified knowledge sharing. To overcome this, they chose vendor Zymr for its experience in developing responsive UX-driven UI.

Zymr implemented a solution using a responsive HTML5 JavaScript architecture deployed on Node.js. They leveraged OpenID and oAuth2 for security and built a CI process with Jenkins and Maven. The results for Peerlyst were significant, onboarding thousands of security professionals within six months with over 20 API ecosystem connectors and integrating educational feeds for solving cybersecurity crimes.
