The cognitive tools/technologies of machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) are impacting the cybersecurity ecosystem in a variety of ways. Applied AI machine learning and natural language processing are being used in cybersecurity by both the private and public sectors to bolster situational awareness and enhance protection from cyber threats. The algorithmic enablers that make ML and AI pinnacles of cybersecurity are automation and orchestration.

Incident Management and Collaboration is another of Security Orchestration, Automation and Response platforms’ essential practice whereby security teams can manage security incidents, collaborate, and share information to deal with the incident efficiently and effectively. The best incident management and collaboration plan answer the following questions...

In the previous post, we discussed the basics of SOAR – Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response and how it is becoming a must-have for businesses across the globe. In this post, we will continue our discussion with how an SOAR solution can help an SOC in improvising its operations. Our experts have identified the following ways in which an SOAR solution proves to be beneficial for a business...

Pick up any industry and you will realize that every one has gone through an evolution – from being entirely dependent on humans to being now run majorly by machines and automated processes. There comes a point, for every industry, where in order to function efficiently and effectively operate, automation becomes a necessity.

In the world of globalization, technology is being capitalized in every walk of life. People are transforming their routine works into machine-based automated tasks. The same is happening in the case of cybersecurity. SOAR solution, as one of the most effective cybersecurity solutions, provides security orchestration, automation, and response that help security analysts to manage and respond to numerous alarms at rapid speed.

As per Gartner definition, SOAR is the set of technologies that allow enterprises to collect security threats’ alerts and data from multiple sources, and then perform incident analysis and remediation process by using both human skills and machine power together to help in defining, prioritizing, and driving standardized incident response activities in accordance with a standard workflow.
