Cybersecurity incidents are the norm of the day. No organization has impunity. When a cybersecurity incident occurs, incident responders have to immediately respond to contain the incident and mitigate the damage. To this end, they have to execute the Incident Response Processes (IRP). Doing it manually is expensive and time-consuming and also less effective if your organization is facing too many incidents on a weekly or monthly basis.

When we discuss Splunk Phantom with customers here at Splunk, we end up talking about phishing pretty frequently. As discussed in a recent blog post, "Phishing Emails — Don’t Get Reeled In!," phishing is a super common issue that almost everyone deals with ad nauseum. It’s also a nuisance to investigate. The good news is that automation excels at dealing with repetitive, mind-numbing workflows like phishing investigations.

Ensuring business continuity is the top priority of every organization. However, is it possible in the age of digital warfare? Today, businesses are at great risk from state-sponsored attacks, insider threats, external threats, organized crimes, and threats from hacktivists. Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs) including all types of viruses are sophisticated and fast and protecting endpoints has become a great challenge for enterprises.

The incident response process is incomplete unless the cyber forensic investigation takes place. In fact, forensic investigation helps in identifying the causes of the attack and the main culprits behind the attack. Usually, the Computer Security Incident Response Team (CSIRT) has to gather forensic details such as logs or artifacts in the aftermath of the incident.

Potential attackers are really good at what they do. Security analysts see this firsthand with the amount of phishing emails their organizations see daily. A newly released State of the Phish report reveals that nearly 90% of organizations dealt with business email compromise (BEC) attacks in 2019. End users reported 9.2 million suspicious phishing emails globally for the year.

A Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response (SOAR) platform enables your security team to focus on high-priority security events while the low-priority events are automatically dealt with. A SOAR platform helps in decreasing the response time while increasing the overall efficiency.

Hi, Let's take a look behind the scenes and find out how Security Orchestration Automation and Response (SOAR) solutions can have a positive impact on your security investigation and response efficiency. In this article, I'll also highlight how Phantom-mobile makes your life as the “officer on duty” a lot easier.
