Through the SearchLight portal, we provide the most relevant and critical digital risks with complete visibility, context, recommended actions, and ways to remediate the risk.

How best-practice organizations are taking their security operations to the next level
Security teams need threat intelligence. Done correctly, it provides quick investigation of events and effective response to incidents. Unfortunately, teams are faced with too many systems, too much threat data, and investigations that take too much time. Teams quickly become overwhelmed, which inhibits their success.

There is a better way. Together, Digital Shadows and Cortex XSOAR enable teams to realize the benefits of threat intelligence, while saving up to 90 hours a week.
