Automating Security Operations using Phantom

No ratings

Presented at OWASPBucharest 2018 by

Our challenge consists in working with a SIEM which manages over 30 TB of logs per day and over 100 different types of Security Alerts, triggered based on the logs. Challenge accepted! This presentation aims to reveal our efforts towards automating Security Alerts triaging workflow using a Python based tool, Phantom. We investigate further and decide upon the actions needed in order to remediate the vulnerabilities. A wide range of workflow actions can be automated, such as running searches or scripts that enrich alert data, reporting and proactively resolving security misconfigurations using various app integrations like Exchange, Slack and Jira. While the adoption of such an initiative is not a quick win but a bumpy road, it easily results in translating the day-to-day Security Operations Center work into a highly scalable, automated and tailored approach when it comes to dealing with the threat landscape! As a consequence, the whole organisation is moving towards a world of SecDevOps.
