Verified Automated Response eases the Burden of the SOC

Blog AWS Security Cloud Infrastructure Cloud Security

Today’s security team is overwhelmed with alerts. On average, the SOC has 4,500 daily alerts. These need to be resolved fast and at machine speed. SOC, DevSecOps, DevOps, and Cloud Security teams cannot manually address all these alerts, automation needs to be used to effectively manage the threat exposure, but how can you trust the automation?

The industry didn’t implement automated response at scale, for two main reasons:

  • Trust the alert: First and foremost, the alert that triggers the automation needs to be real and accurate. What would happen if the alert that was triggering the automated response was false.
  • Automation that works: Second, the automated response must actually work and not impact production, to that end, the response must be validated to not be detrimental to the business.

 

Skyhawk Security’s Time Machine: Verified Automated Response

Skyhawk Security’s Continuous Proactive Protection, an AI-based Autonomous Purple Team, leveraging simulation twins, simulates attacks specific to your cloud environment so that you can pre-verify the alerts and be absolutely certain that in real time they are true events, and second you can map automated response runbooks which are pre-validated and verified to make sure that when they are triggered they block the attacker without breaking production. The alert that will trigger the automated response is real, and the automated response is tested and validated to ensure it reduces the overall threat exposure. The end result is that the two inhibitors to implementation of automated response are no longer relevant.

How it works?

The AI-based Autonomous Purple team identifies the crown jewels in the cloud and then maps out the paths to these assets and creates an attack recipe. The red team uses these attack recipes and simulates the attack, the blue team defends against the attack recipes. From this simulated AI-based attack, automated response is created. The security team knows this automated response will stop the incident and it will not impact production. The automated responses are completely verified and validated in the AI-based Simulation Twin. The security team is now able to focus on other issues, only those that requires their attention while automation addresses the vast majority of the incidents. Given that cloud incidents are nearly doubling, without automation, organizations won’t be able to hire enough cloud SOC engineers to handle the load and avoid security teams’ burn out.

Skyhawk Synthesis Security Platform

The Synthesis Platform is an agentless, cloud-native solution to reduce threat exposure and manage cloud risk. Its Cloud Threat Detection and Response (CDR) leverages a multi-layer AI-based approach to identify and stop cloud threats before they become breaches. It evolves cloud security posture management far beyond scanning and static configuration analysis, continuously adapting and improving threat detection so that it is always aligned with the cloud architecture. Skyhawk revolutionizes CDR with its Continuous Proactive Protection, an AI-powered Autonomous Purple Team, enabling security teams to take a proactive approach to cloud security for the very first time.
