It's inevitable that automation will play a role in cybersecurity strategies of the future, but it won't replace cyber operators in a security operations center (SOC).
As the cybersecurity industry grapples with the ongoing talent shortage, security operations centers (SOCs) are already overwhelmed, and a constant stream of alerts doesn’t necessarily make their jobs any easier.
With the number of cyberattacks faced by enterprise organizations, security teams need to rely on artificial intelligence to mitigate risk. However, a fully automated approach to cybersecurity presents challenges as well.
It’s time to re-evaluate the modern data stack to relieve friction points and ensure both accessibility and compliance. By automating security workflows and controls across data stores and integrating into self-service access, productivity and innovation will thrive.
The path to success requires artificial intelligence and machine learning to supercharge the expertise and experience of an equally innovative and warm-bodied defender working as part of an enterprise security operations center and outsourced services like managed detection and response.
