Security teams stretched to breaking point trying to secure new remote working regimes
2020-09-01 04:30

This has been intensified by the pandemic, with security teams stretched to breaking point trying to secure new remote working regimes against the influx of opportunistic cyberattacks.

There is a human cost to this high-pressure environment and new research from SIRP shows that the additional burdens placed on security operations center teams due to COVID-19 has affected staff churn rates.

To help retain and attract new recruits, organizations need to explore how to take the strain off overworked security analysts and the role that security orchestration and automation and a risk-based approach to security operations can play in alleviating workloads.

Many SOC teams rely on Security Orchestration, Automation and Response platforms to streamline security operations and provide security analysts with actionable information.

Fusing the outputs from disparate security tools into one interface saves security analysts from constantly switching between dashboards when tracking down and mitigating potential security risks.
