Get ready for an exclusive event where we dive into the latest insights from our survey followed by an exclusive hands-on experience with Palo Alto’s Cortex XSOAR platform. This two-part forum will uncover what drives automation in security teams and how advanced SOAR tools can revolutionize SOC operations.

Security teams are inundated with mundane tasks, diverting their attention from tackling more significant security issues. Automation is essential for enhancing capacity, efficiency, and performance in Security Operations Centers (SOCs).

SANS Instructor Mark Orlando will be joined by two Palo Alto Networks’ Cortex division representatives (Jane Goh, Product Marketing Principal Lead and Michal Goldshtein, Director of Security Architecture and Research) to discuss the results of this survey, which covers how SOC teams identify, prioritize, and assess the efficiency of SOAR use cases. They will also explore the ways advanced automation capabilities such as artificial intelligence might fill the gaps left by traditional SOAR, and potential barriers that remain for security teams already overworked and understaffed.

Next, SANS Instructor Matt Bromiley will share his review of Palo Alto’s Cortex XSOAR platform. Discover how Cortex XSOAR enables security teams to identify and achieve efficiency in their security operations. Attendees will learn how Cortex XSOAR:

• Helps eliminate unnecessary manual tasks.

• Automatically enrich data with threat intelligence.

• Automates response actions to bring down MTTR times.
