What is SOAR: How does it Protect your Digital Ecosystem? 

Cybersecurity has become a major area of concern for the companies, the world over. The security operations teams face some typical challenges like an absence of automated repeated response workflow and time-consuming triage tasks. The manual processes are error-prone, and the unavailability of skilled manpower can make matters worse. Minimizing security incidents with these challenges is a herculean task.  

SOAR which stands for Security Orchestration, Automation and Response emerges as one of the most powerful solutions to ensure cybersecurity can help organizations overcome security challenges with unprecedented ease. SOAR solution developed by NewEvol adds layers of security to an organization’s digital ecosystem by defining, prioritizing, and standardizing incident response activities. It enables organizations to collect inputs that are monitored by the security team.  

Let’s understand its functioning with an example. SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) system integrated with the digital ecosystem generates alerts in case of an irregular event. SIEM and other such security technologies leverage a combination of human and machine power to analyze incidents. It then prioritizes actions based on the severity. SOAR makes this process hassle-free by reducing human intervention and defining incident analysis and response procedures in a digital workflow format. SOAR can collect data from a variety of sources and employs machine learning to analyze diverse data and prioritize incident response actions.  

Benefits:

• Great ROI on security investments 
• Reduced risk of legal liability 
• Consolidated security operations process  
• Asset monitoring from a central location 
• Careful alert generation with contextual information
