Modern security threats come in many different forms, which is part of the reason why addressing them is so challenging and there is a dire need for security automation.
Despite recent advancements, the barriers to adoption for automation software remain high, particularly within the security industry.
Robotic automation - where repetitive and routine tasks, such as alert monitoring, are offloaded from the security team, providing them more time to focus on threat response and security improvements.
Cognitive automation - where the security platform learns about the behavior of the network, hosts and applications to provide informed responses on threats or ways to improve security posture.
Now is the time to start taking a more serious look at how they can be used to make the security team more productive improving your security posture.
