Shrinking Supply of Cyber Security Talent and Growing Volume of Cyber Attacks Drive an Early Adoption of Security Orchestration and Automation Response Solutions in Security Operations Centers

Growing volume and complexity of data breaches force enterprises to invest in many point solutions to reduce vulnerability. Information security analysts often do not have the required bandwidth to handle the huge volume of data generated by each of these tools. The situation is further complicated by the widening gap between the demand and supply of cyber security talent.

The security orchestration and automation response (SOAR) platform ties together various IT and security tools to give a bird’s eye view of network security events. Further, these solutions take off a huge volume of workload from security analysts by automating repetitive manual tasks.

This study on the global market for SOAR solutions provides detailed insights into key market trends, risk posture, market dynamics, and vendor dynamics in this market.
