Ever wonder if Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response (SOAR) is truly essential—or just another buzzword in cybersecurity?
In this episode of Cyber After Hours—SOAR: Hype or Necessity?—Paul and Evan sit down with Josh Lawson to unpack exactly that, starting with some amusing (and insightful) stories on workplace culture and how company dynamics directly impact security practices.
The conversation quickly heats up as they dive into Identity and Access Management (IAM), exploring why automation isn't just a nice-to-have anymore—it's critical for lean teams trying to keep pace with the growing complexity of cyber threats.
They also debate the real-world applications of SOAR, sharing tips on how to vet and test implementations effectively, avoid hidden cloud costs, and leverage behavioral analysis alongside AI integration.
Plus, they chat about the surprising trend of organizations shifting back to on-prem solutions, and why cybersecurity is becoming increasingly accessible even for smaller teams.
Is SOAR just a fancy feature, or is it the cornerstone of modern cybersecurity operations?
Listen in as Evan, Paul, and Josh blend humor, candid experiences, and practical advice for navigating the evolving landscape of security tools.
Pour yourself a drink, hit play, and join us for a spirited debate—because cybersecurity conversations shouldn’t be dull.
