With automated attack methods and round-the-clock threats, small to mid-sized businesses (SMBs) can’t afford slow response times. Traditional security tools detect threats - but without automation, attackers have the upper hand.

What You’ll Learn: Why most breaches aren’t about sophisticated hacks—but delayed response times. How SOAR goes beyond detection to take action instantly, stopping threats before they spread.
