No-code vs. low-code and near-no-code security automation

It seems that “no-code” is a term we hear more often in the security automation context these days. And this is especially true because automation has become one of the major talking points in cybersecurity. How is no-code automation implemented in cybersecurity? How do no-code and Sumo Logic automation compare to each other? We’ll discuss all these questions in the following sections.

Using Python in Tines: a quick how-to guide

While you can build nearly anything in Tines without writing code, users occasionally prefer to use Python scripts to perform a step in their stories. The reasons for this vary, but we're happy to share that there's a simple way to securely execute Python scripts in Tines. So let's take a closer look at how it works, and talk through some best practices for using Python in Tines.

We’re all good on the why so today we’ll talk about the how – the best (and free!) tools to help you create SBOMs automatically. Creating an SBOM manually is arduous and error-prone so why not avoid it altogether?

Evade the SecOps Black Hole: A Five-Tier Approach to a Hyperautomated SOC

There’s a term to describe what happens to something that gets sucked into a black hole: “spaghettification.” The gravitational pull of a black hole is so forceful, that it is believed to stretch and compress objects into long thin shapes resembling spaghetti. SOC analysts spend their days trying to avoid being sucked into the black hole of overwhelming security events and alerts. They’re fighting to not be spaghettified.

Automating Extension Risk Assessment and Permissions

Browser extensions are a classic shadow IT concern. Assessing the reputation and security of a browser extension is crucial before installing it on a company computer, as extensions often have wide-ranging permissions that could be abused for data theft or other malicious activities. In an open environment style company, extensions generate significant shadow IT risk that needs to be managed and addressed.
