  It can be challenging to get your security systems, tools, and teams to integrate in a way that speeds detection, response, and remediation, as anyone who has ever worked in a security team can attest.  Security teams need a method to become more flexible as new technologies (IoT, BOYD, and ongoing virtualization of everything) appear on the scene every day. That is where security orchestration and automation can help in this situation. So, What Is A Security Orchestration ? Security Orchestration is a technique for linking security devices and combining dissimilar security systems. It is the connection layer that drives automation in security and streamlines security procedures.  It entails: Working together with security solutions without interfering with each other's procedures Streamlining processes to boost each component's efficiency Organizing and streamlining the data export How Does Security Orchestration Work? Although cyber events are frequently sophisticat...

By 2025, it is anticipated that cybercrime will cost businesses throughout the world over $10 trillion yearly, up from $3 trillion in 2015. One of the largest transfers of economic wealth in history, that amounts to a 15% yearly growth. This problem has only gotten worse after COVID-19. Cyber risks are increasing and will do so in the future. While the rate of detection has been reported to be as low as about 0.05%, the UN estimates that cybercrime has surged by 600% as a result of the epidemic. As a result, there is a critical need for new technology to improve the state of the sector. We particularly need creative approaches to our cyber threat intelligence in order to better identify assaults and mitigate potential ones. And there are many different subtypes of threat intelligence to assess the seriousness of a certain threat, but Open-Source Threat Intelligence (OSINT) is the most effective one to be known by the experts. What Is An Open-Source Threat Intelligence ? Information th...

Looking for new ways to improve integrations at your company? Try SOAR which refers to the three distinct technologies of security incident response platforms (SIRP), threat intelligence platforms (TIP), and security orchestration and automation (SOA). A SOAR cyber security is integrated with event/alert correlation and management capabilities that enable operators to scale incident response. SOAR technology is a revolutionary software that enables an organization to collect, aggregate, and process vast amounts of security data and alerts in real-time from a wide range of sources without losing sight of low-level security events so they can automate their processes and standardize their threat detection and remediation procedures. SOAR cyber security technologies allow you to automate processes using big data intelligence. You can thus optimize your security plan and reduce the number of sensors installed in your network. This will lower operating costs, but increase the likelihood o...

As of 2020, the average cost of a single data breach across all industries worldwide stood at nearly 4 million U.S. dollars .  As cybercriminals become more skilled, the threat of digital attacks continues to rise. An incident response describes the process to handle a data breach or cyberattack by an organization. It also includes how an organization manages the consequences of the attack or breach termed the 'incident.'  The goal of any cybersecurity team is to ensure that the damage, recovery on time, and the cost is minimal or none.  What is an incident response plan? An incident response plan is a detailed guideline of security policies and procedures. The plan is used as a reference to identify, alert, contain, and eliminate a cybersecurity breach.  In the case of incident response, it details all the steps that should occur in each phase of the incident response. Every organization must keep the document updated with the guidelines outlining communication pla...

Whenever there is a cyberattack in a company such as a data breach, the IT professionals use the Incident Response Plan to respond to the security attacks. Furthermore, this plan helps to ensure that cyberattack doesn’t affect the consumers, brand significance and, intellectual estate to a much vaster extent.

  SOAR cyber security pertains to the convergence of at least three types of distinct technology markets.  It is an accumulation of security orchestration and automation, security incident response platforms, and finally, threat intelligence platforms.  Otherwise known as security orchestration automation and response, this technology makes it  possible for an organization to collect and distribute vast amounts of security data and alerts from a wide  range of sources. This assists in building automated processes so that it can respond to low-level security events and standardized threat detection as well as remediation procedures. The term was first developed by the research firm Gartner and has maintained three core responsibilities  of SOAR technologies. They are as follows,  Incident response workflow Data enrichment Automation will be controlled by security.  Let Us Define SOAR: SOAR generally focuses on enabling an organization to utilize a...
