Introduction
The modern IT security team has a lot to handle: Devices around the infrastructure send more alerts than teams can handle, staff burnout leads to trouble retaining talent, and too much time spent on gathering and analyzing information means threat response is too slow and ineffective.
To alleviate this pressure and provide timely and effective threat response, more organizations are adopting security orchestration, automation, and response (SOAR) solutions to automate time consuming incident response processes.
Specifically, organizations can use SOAR to enhance security operations in three important areas: threat and vulnerability management, incident response, and security operations automation.
The 2021 SOAR Report is based on a comprehensive survey of cybersecurity professionals to uncover the latest trends, use cases, and benefits of SOAR solutions.
