Secureworks Announces Orchestration and Automation Solution
SAN FRANCISCO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Secureworks® (NASDAQ: SCWX), a leading global cybersecurity company,
today announced the launch of its Orchestration
and Automation solution to help organizations reduce their
cybersecurity operations workload and quickly take the right action to
contain threats and eradicate them from their environment.
Secureworks’ Orchestration and Automation solution, unveiled today at RSA
Conference 2019, uses a combination of security operations
expertise, security orchestration technology, managed services, and
incident response experience to automate a series of client-specific
workflows and contextualize incidents based on a unified view of the
organization’s full environment. A broad set of integrations enables
customers to get the most out of their existing security technology
investments by adding better context to enrich incident data and
automate response activities. Secureworks’ deep threat intelligence
provides insight into the nature of an incident, making it easier for
users to decide on a prudent course of action.
“Security leaders are recognizing that the speed and scale of digital
business means that it’s not sustainable to rely on manual
investigations and response processes,” says Wendy Thomas, Senior Vice
President of Business and Product Strategy at Secureworks. “Secureworks’
Orchestration and Automation solution allows customers to respond faster
to threats and be more confident that the actions taken are the right
ones for their organization and environment.”
Unlike many off-the-shelf SOAR (security orchestration and automated
response) products, Secureworks’ unique “do it with you” approach
ensures that customer-specific playbooks and automated responses are
aligned with the best practices gleaned from more than 1,000 incident
response engagements each year. Leveraging this expertise in an up-front
consultation helps users overcome their fear of automating the wrong
actions and ensures alignment with the customer’s goals from the start.
Users of Secureworks’ Orchestration and Automation solution can
confidently accelerate their response to threats by taking automated
response actions in their client portal or mobile interface, and for
additional peace of mind they can escalate an incident to Secureworks’ industry-leading
incident response team for further consultation.
“By leveraging Secureworks’ deep security operations expertise as part
of both the onboarding process and the ongoing advisory services,
customers can be certain that they are automating the right responses in
the context of both their environment and the threat,” says Thomas.
Secureworks is introducing its Orchestration and Automation solution at
a time when the pace of cybersecurity threats is accelerating, and
attackers are taking advantage of organizational inefficiencies to gain
a stronger foothold in the exploited environment. Orchestration and
Automation functions streamline investigations so security operations
teams can focus on their most impactful tasks – investigating and
responding to threats as efficiently as possible, before bad actors have
a chance to do harm.
Secureworks Orchestration and Automation solution, to be presented today
in Booth 4435 at the RSA Conference, allows customers to:
-
Automate best practice processes, both strengthening and accelerating
security operations; -
Spend less time deploying and configuring solutions with Secureworks
“do-it-with-you” approach to orchestration; -
