SOC Automation

Vector Flow, Inc., announced that its security operations center (SOC) Automation Suite can reduce false and nuisance alarms by more than 80 percent. This reduction not only improves SOC efficiency and productivity, but it also lets operators focus on legitimate alerts and provide improved services. Based on standard SOC procedures, each alarm notification can take between two and 30 minutes for an operator to verify, observe the area via video surveillance, and, in some instances, dispatch a security officer to further investigate. Large organizations can quickly rack up costs when false alarms take up personnel time and energy. The SOC Automation Suite allows for automatic monitoring of thousands of connected devices, eliminating several manual tasks, and gathering and processing data for analysis and actionable insights. www.vectorflow.com
