Introduction
Automation is vital for SecOps teams to stay agile in today's unpredictable cybersecurity landscape, where the growing complexity of threats and the sheer volume of alerts can quickly overwhelm staff, hindering swift action. By effectively leveraging automation, you can scale operations without overburdening your staff while also reducing the mean time to respond (MTTR). Let your analysts focus on what they do best-automation can handle the rest.
We have seen the transformational impact of automation firsthand in our own Palo Alto Networks SOC and across our global network of XSOAR customers. Through XSOAR technology, the productivity improvement from automation was equivalent to adding 14 virtual full-time employees (FTEs) to our SOC.
Since our inception as the leader in SOAR, we've set the gold standard for security orchestration and automation. Continuing to innovate for our global customer base, we're proud to announce that KuppingerCole has once again ranked us the Overall Leader in their 2024 SOAR Leadership Compass.
"Palo Alto Networks is the Overall Leader and takes a strong position as one of the dominant products on the market today. Palo Alto Networks's agility and scalability make them a worthy choice for mid-market organizations and large enterprises."
