Security orchestration, automation and response (SOAR) solutions combine incident response, orchestration and automation, and threat intelligence (TI) management capabilities in a single platform. SOAR tools are also used to document and implement processes (aka playbooks, workflows and processes); support security incident management; and apply machine-based assistance to human security analysts and operators. SOAR solutions must provide: - Highly customizable workflow process management that enables repeatable automated tasks to be turned into playbooks that run in isolation or joined together into more sophisticated workflows. - The ability to store (locally or in a third-party system) incident management data to support SecOps investigations. - Manually instigated and automated triggers that augment human security analyst operators to carry out operational tasks consistently. - A mechanism to collate and better operationalize the use of threat intelligence. - Support for a broad range of existing security technologies that supports improved analyst efficiency and acts as an abstraction layer between the desired outcomes and the custom-made set of solutions in place in your environment.
