What is Security Orchestration, Automation and Response (SOAR)?
SOAR platforms ingest alerts from SIEM and other sources, then execute predefined playbooks to triage, investigate, and respond to threats automatically. This reduces mean time to respond (MTTR) and frees analysts to focus on higher-value investigations.
Understanding this concept is crucial for maintaining a robust security posture. In the context of modern cyber threats, security orchestration, automation and response (soar) represents a significant area of focus for security professionals and organizations alike.
