The goal of Tines is to efficiently automate processes while ensuring that the resulting workflows (also known as stories) are easy for users to understand, regardless of their background in Tines or coding knowledge. When trying to answer the question, “How can I best optimize my Tines stories?”, the answer is: it depends.

As mentioned in the first blog of this series , we shared tips and tricks for building. Here we'll focus on managing stories efficiently, including error handling, maintainability (or readability), and continuous improvement.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), the Multi-State Information Sharing and Analysis Center (MS-ISAC), and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) recently issued a joint advisory on the RansomHub ransomware. RansomHub is a ransomware-as-a-service variant, previously known as Cyclops and Knight. Since February 2024, it has encrypted and exfiltrated data from over 210 victims spanning multiple industries.

Enterprise data consolidation and access have long posed significant challenges in the Security Operations Center (SOC). They often hinder security teams from effectively investigating and taking action on the vast amounts of data they are tasked with protecting. Traditional security tools frequently operate in isolation, lacking the compatibility to create a cohesive data strategy.

We’ve just introduced the Tines Top Builder score, a measure of user activity that shows just how much hands-on experience you’ve had in Tines in a given year. Why track our Top Builders? We realized we were seeing a high level of achievement from our users – to the extent that it warranted some recognition. We set out to identify exactly who our Top Builders were, with the intent to celebrate their achievement at the end of each year.

You trust us with your most important workflows, and we take that trust seriously. In developing AI in Tines, we’ve been laser-focused on helping users leverage AI without exposing their organizations to security and privacy risks. But we also spoke with so many teams struggling to fully realize AI's potential impact. They wanted AI to do more, while still preserving those all-important security and privacy guardrails.

A leading voice in cybersecurity, Gina Yacone is a trusted advisor to senior security leaders, guiding them through emerging trends and recommending strategies to strengthen defenses.

We’re excited to announce that AWS CLI is now a runtime option for Run Script in the cloud! This new feature allows you to execute an AWS CLI command directly from the storyboard to interact with AWS services in your AWS account.

Earlier this month, I was thrilled to join forces with the team at Dark Reading for a webinar on the future of AI in security operations. Titled CISO Perspectives: How to make AI an accelerator, not a blocker, the webinar allowed me to take a deep dive into the future role of AI in security with some of the most knowledgeable CISOs on the subject, Mandy Andress of Elastic and Matt Hillary of Drata.

High stakes, long hours, and a rapidly evolving threat landscape present unique barriers to happiness for security and IT teams. It’s not surprising that 63% of security practitioners report some level of burnout, and 58% of IT professionals feel overwhelmed by the amount of tasks they have to do in a day. Organizations simply can’t afford to ignore these statistics.
