Automation can drastically improve the way your organization handles incident response. The growing volume of threat alerts is overwhelming the ability of security operations teams to keep pace. In fact, 93% of organizations report that they are unable to address all of their security alerts the same day.
Manual processes for incident response eat up a lot of your time, are tedious and frankly unnecessary with today’s available technology. The process of identifying problems, isolating infected systems, researching a threat, etcetera all cause a headache that is largely avoidable. No more weekend worries, rushing to the office or wire-ripping is necessary with ServiceNow Security Operations.
For example, let’s say you’re faced with containing and investigating a malware intrusion. You’d be faced with a long list of tasks, and if you’re not able to respond quickly you could end up with a serious situation on your hands and progressively worse damage as time goes on. ServiceNow offers autonomous tools that can identify, isolate and remediate any such intrusion in a matter of minutes, no human input required.
Automating security procedures introduces a myriad of benefits and optimizations that help your cybersecurity team better understand, analyze and respond to even the most complex incidents. ServiceNow‘s workflows do just that.

In many cases, a bulk of cyber threats are ‘false alarms,’ mislabeled and repetitive. Spending human-hours to deal with these kinds of incidents is not an optimal use of the SecOps team’s time. By introducing automation, teams are able to focus on serious threats, while automated processes handle the small stuff.
Resolve threats quickly
Empower your team to work on the most important tasks first. Collaborate and automate to drive results.
Without having to worry about the inflow of smaller, superfluous incidents, teams are more prepared to respond to important tasks, which means they get taken care of more quickly and with greater attention to detail.
92% of security leaders agree that automation is integral for modern threat management, yet only 65% of organizations have partially automated alert processing. If this sounds like your organization, it’s time to consider introducing automation to your security incident response program.
