Overview
Configuring systems and applications manually to protect against security threats is time-consuming and requires skilled resources. Automation can help drastically reduce response times and vulnerability.
Explore strategies for enhancing your security using automation in this short e-book. Success stories from Emory University, Schwarz Group, Agile Defense, Seimens, and Cepsa illustrate the benefits and scalability of automation for enhancing security. You’ll also learn how you can use Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform to successfully integrate and scale security solutions to investigate and respond to threats across your organization in a coordinated and unified way.
Excerpt
What does a unified security approach include?
Security solutions are constantly evolving to stay one step ahead of security threats. Some key aspects to consider include:
Investigation enrichment
Collecting logs across firewalls, intrusion detection systems (IDS), and other security systems programmatically enable on-demand enrichment of triage activities performed through security information and event management systems (SIEMs).
Threat hunting
Automatically tune the level of logging and create new IDS rules and new firewall policies facilitating the detection of more threats in less time.
Incident response
Remediate faster-automating actions like blacklisting IP addresses or domains, whitelisting non-threatening traffic, or isolating suspicious workloads for further investigation.
