It would be hard to overstate the critical importance of security orchestration, automation and response (SOAR) capabilities for the effective mission success of security operations centers (SOC). Without a solid SOAR capability in place, an SOC will be easily overwhelmed with routine and repetitive tasks that in and of themselves could become a vulnerability.
SOAR use cases come in all shapes and sizes, but almost all of them rely on threat intelligence to determine the risk posed by the various indicators in the event. Our two new community playbooks leverage Splunk Intelligence Management (previously TruSTAR) to gather intelligence about indicators and enable rapid manual response by an analyst within a single prompt.
Security, by its very nature, is one of the most innovative fields on the planet. Every technological advancement carries with it a handful or more of new attack vectors, which in turn lead to a dizzying amount of security innovation as our industry works to mitigate risk and defend against threats. But for all this innovation, there are a few ways in which security lags far behind.
Naval Information Warfare Systems Command (NAVWAR) enterprise recently announced that Splunk is the winner of its third prize challenge in the Artificial Intelligence Applications to Autonomous Cybersecurity (AI ATAC) Challenge series.
With thousands of tools and technologies to choose from, navigating through cybersecurity categories and technologies to find a solution that meets your organization’s needs can be challenging. The annual Cybersecurity Breakthrough Awards program helps you solve that problem by aiming to perform the most comprehensive evaluation of cybersecurity companies and solutions on the market today and recognizing the leaders.
Halloween is just around the corner and we’re looking forward to trick-or-treating, donning our best costumes, and watching movies. A few of my favorite movies that I watch around Halloween time remind me of our most recent Splunk SOAR updates. Is that a stretch? Possibly. But hey it’s Halloween, let’s have some fun and I’ll try to make it as humerus as possible 💀
Most organizations understand the critical role that cybersecurity solutions play in protecting their environment. However, the abundance of available tools that claim to serve that need are leaving them unsure they're actually protected against today's sophisticated threats.
