Security News > 2022 > March > The Uncertain Future of IT Automation

Chris Hass, director of information security and research at Automox, discusses how the future looks.

While the trend of automation will continue to grow, there still remain many challenges to its adoption, and new innovations or threats could change how the future looks for this technology.

Within the next year, anticipate that more businesses will realize these immense benefits and replace existing tools with cloud-native IT automation.

Automation is one way to drive more accessibility and ease-of-use for IT teams.

While in the past the core argument for automation is to provide more time for innovation, today the argument must simply be, automation creates more time for teams - but we're not there yet.

As Automox predicted at the end of last year, IT and security transformation continue as organizations everywhere try to find a new normal following the disruptions of the pandemic, and IT automation will have to adjust.
