Manual entering of alerts from multiple sources led to labor intensive swivel chair process.

PDF-based playbooks lacked standardisation, causing transparency challenges and inefficiencies with incident record updates. 

 

Our Solution

Thirdera, a Cognizant company proposed a four-phased approach to improve user-reported phishing and security incident prioritisation via platform integrations with QRadar and SentinelOne.

Created three automated playbooks using ServiceNow Process Automation Designer and Security Incident Workspace to centralise management and adherence to playbooks. 

The Result

Improved cost optimisation
Reduced technical debt by removing the need to customise ITSM incident processes.

Increased employee efficiency 
Security analysts are spending less time manually creating and categorising Security Incidents from multiple alert sources.

 

Better compliance and reporting
The resultant process automation has improved compliance with both internal and external regulations and has streamlined data reporting.
