SOAR stands for security orchestration, automation, and response. SOAR seeks to alleviate the strain on IT teams by incorporating automated responses to a variety of events.
SOAR combines three software capabilities: the management of threats and vulnerabilities, responding to security incidents, and automating security operations. SOAR security, therefore, provides a top-to-bottom threat management system. Threats are identified and then a response strategy is implemented. The system is then automated—to the extent possible to make it run more efficiently. An effective SOAR system can be used as a valuable tool to alleviate the strain on IT teams.
