Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response (SOAR)
SOAR is an automated tool that integrates all of your security processes and tools in a central location. This is an automated process that uses machine learning and artificial intelligence (making it faster than human staff performing the same tasks) to search for evidence of an attack, reduce the mean time to detect (MTTD) and respond to events, and potentially, release members of the IT team to carry out other tasks. The SOAR system is set up with various playbooks that outline the symptoms of an attack, with the action that the SOAR system needs to take, as follows:
- Orchestration: SOAR seamlessly integrates with a variety of security tools, data sources, and APIs to coordinate and execute complex workflows, ensuring that security processes are well-structured, standardized, and executed consistently.
- Automation: Automation empowers organizations to streamline operations by automating routine and time-consuming...
