Today we’re excited to announce our new podcast – 'The Future of Security Operations.' Our first episode is with MongoDB’s CISO Lena Smart, and every other week from now on, we’ll have a new episode with another expert. I wanted to take a few minutes to explain why we’re launching this podcast and what you can expect to gain from listening.

This blog is a continuation of our series on working with chatbots leveraging Microsoft Teams. In Part 1 of this series, we examined how to set up a chatbot within Microsoft Teams. In Part 2, we explored how to send rich notifications using Cards and use the Microsoft Graph API and the chatbot to proactively find and contact users within Microsoft Teams.

Security teams want to accomplish their best work — but they're being prevented from doing so. We recently surveyed 468 full-time security analysts for our 'Voice of the SOC Analyst' report to learn more about their day-to-day workloads, successes, and concerns. What we found was that seven out of ten analysts are either somewhat or very burned out, and that six out of ten analysts want to find a new job in the next year.

Since joining a restaurant chain more than three years ago, this Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) has been a driving force behind its ability to stay ahead of the security curve. Here, they share why they’re focusing on securing third-party access, customer identity and access management, security awareness training, software assurance, and situational awareness and response for the foreseeable future.

63%. That's the number of SOC analysts who say they are likely to switch jobs in the next year, according to our Voice of the SOC Analyst report. Considering that SOC teams are understaffed and that the cybersecurity industry as a whole is facing severe staffing shortages, team leaders need to ensure that they're doing everything they can to retain their talent. However, SOC leaders may not know exactly what approach to take.

There’s nothing more frustrating than coming up against an API that won’t cooperate, no matter how hard or long you try! A key component of building integrations, APIs have been a big deal for over a decade. At this point, if a software company doesn’t have one, its technology is as good as obsolete. More than a third of analysts, in a new Tines survey, indicated that API-first is the single most important feature and capability they would look for when evaluating a new SOAR tool.

Happy International Women’s Day 2022. This year the theme is 'Break the Bias,' which calls for everyone to take action and call out gender bias, discrimination, and stereotyping. Infosecurity Magazine recently highlighted 90% of security leaders are suffering skills shortages, with 3.5 million positions unfilled in 2021. According to Best Colleges, women continue to outnumber men in college completion.

The complexity of keeping organizations, customers, and employees safe from cyber threats increases every day. Security teams are often overwhelmed with the need to manage multiple workflows across a myriad of tools. The combination of Humio and Tines helps customers build a clear picture of what's really going on within their environment and automate effective responses at speed and scale.
