Importance of Automated Incident Response in Cyber Defense

Breach speed is rising. Attackers are growing more evasive. And the reality is clear—manual incident response can no longer keep pace. Security teams are overwhelmed by alerts, context-switching, and delayed visibility. The time it takes to investigate, triage, and respond can leave critical gaps for attackers to exploit.

How Modern Work Order Tools Are Transforming Maintenance Efficiency

In the chaotic world of facilities management, staying ahead of equipment failures and maintenance requests can feel like playing whack-a-mole with a blindfold on. Maintenance managers juggle dozens-sometimes hundreds-of work orders daily while fighting against the limitations of outdated systems and paper-based processes.

How Python Is Reshaping Cybersecurity Automation

Cybersecurity teams are overwhelmed. Systems are more complex, and data flows nonstop. As attack surfaces grow, real-time responses are not just ideal - they're necessary. Python is quietly becoming the backbone of security automation across many industries, and here's how.

Building better workflows with multiple drafts

In today's security and IT landscape, the workflows that power your operations are not merely convenient tools—they're essential infrastructure. When a phishing detection workflow fails or an access control process malfunctions, the consequences can be severe: security incidents remain undetected, response times suffer, and organizational risk escalates significantly. This reality creates a paradox for teams.

How LivePerson automates vulnerability management to reduce risk

For modern security teams, managing vulnerabilities efficiently is critical to reducing risk and maintaining a strong security posture. However, the sheer volume of vulnerabilities, complex IT environments, and resource constraints make traditional approaches unsustainable. Automating key aspects of vulnerability management not only speeds up remediation, but also ensures consistency and accuracy across the entire vulnerability lifecycle.

Automating your risk register using Tines Records

A risk register is a GRC tool used by teams to identify, assess, and manage various risks within an organization. It acts as a centralized repository and looks at the impact and probability of a risk to prioritize its management. In cyber security, a risk register helps maintain compliance with various standards like the ISO 27001 Information Security Management System (ISMS), NIST SP800-30 Guide for Conducting Risk Assessments, or the new European NIS 2 directive.

All Gas, No Brakes: The Autonomous SOC Revolution is Here

The era of static playbooks and reactive security is over. A new generation of AI-driven security operations is emerging — one that combines cloud-native scale with intelligent, agentic automation to redefine how Security Operations Centers (SOCs) work. As CEO of Torq, I’ve had a front-row seat to this transformation. In speaking with countless CISOs and analysts, one theme rings loud and clear: We can’t fight modern threats with yesterday’s tools.

The Future of Inbound Call Center Services: AI, Automation, and Beyond

Inbound call centers have always been a vital part of customer service, but with rapid advancements in AI and automation, their future is changing. Today, businesses are utilizing these technologies to improve efficiency, cut costs, and deliver better experiences for customers.

The Fast Eat the Slow: AI Adoption for Survival in Modern Cybersecurity

John Quinsey (also known as “JQ”) is a regional director at Torq with 25 years in software and SaaS sales, solving business problems with disruptive technologies. He firmly believes AI has the power to revolutionize modern security operations. Just five years ago, the average dwell time for a ransomware attack was seven months. Today, it’s five days and shrinking.
