SOC Automation: Accelerate Threat Detection and Response with SIEM and SOAR

At Rapid7, we have the opportunity to talk to security professionals from all types of organizations. Whether we’re conversing with our largest customers or a Security Operations Center (SOC) team of one, there are a few challenges we hear about again and again. We believe that the best solution to industry-wide struggles with threat detection and response is to increase efficiency using SIEM and SOAR together.


Detection and response challenges


Security teams often struggle to manage the increasing complexity of today’s technology landscape. This manifests in three key ways. First, as IT environments change rapidly, teams can lose track of the ever-evolving footprint, leading to a lack of visibility. Another major complaint we hear often regards alert fatigue. On average, security teams use about 40 different tools, each of which generates its own alerts. Analysts need higher-quality alerts and manageable threat intelligence. Finally, our customers tell us that investigations take too long and are tedious. The response needs to be faster. All three of these pain points are amplified by the fact that teams everywhere lack resources.
