Automating security: It's underestimated role in your digital ecosystems

?In a digital era like now, we aim to do things as efficiently and quickly as possible. If one can do things with the help of a clever machine, doing them manually seems like a waste of time. The same principle works for everyone, and the cybersecurity world is no exception.??

Even though the concept is the same, the methods can be different. Let's explore the world of automation and understand how it can help your business.??

??

Why automate your security systems? The first and most visible reason lies in incident management and threat detection. While automating your security operations, you reduce the time needed to detect threats and manage and respond promptly, thus working more efficiently.??

??

Human element. When we talk about efficiency, we need to be objective and say all humans are erroneous; even one mistake can disturb all work processes or be crucial in getting hacked, especially if one has to perform the same things repeatedly. Automated security solutions can perform repetitive tasks precisely and consistently, reducing the likelihood of errors and minimizing the risk of security breaches due to misconfigurations or oversight.??

??

Accountability and monitoring. Let us think this way: If we can choose between having all information and processes stored in one place, thus providing access to past data, and having everything done manually, which one is preferable? We believe the first one. Having automated systems handle processes gives you the flexibility to check in whenever you want, monitor whether your implied processes work well, and have reports and data whenever you want.??

??

Threat detection and response. As we stated at first, security automation is more for threat detection; automated threat intelligence feeds provide real-time insights into emerging threats and malicious attacks, empowering organizations to defend against evolving cyber threats proactively.???

Protelion developed its threat detection and response solution with that in mind.??

What does threat detection and response mean? What does threat detection and response mean? TD&R is a solution for information security that operates in real-time, monitoring threats and detecting malicous attacks. The advanced system excels at identifying ransomware, file-less attacks, and threats to remote workers in our dynamic threat landscape. It promptly notifies you of threats and suggests countermeasures, ensuring swift responses and preventing future incidents.???
