Security automation technologies can help drive improvements in managing security policies, including their implementation in firewalls and other network devices. However, whether you’re struggling with continuous compliance, auditing and reporting or managing firewall changes, deciding what to automate can be challenging. Join Skybox Security and (ISC)2 on August 16, 2018 at 1:00PM Eastern for a discussion where we’ll examine which automated processes in security policy management deliver the biggest rewards while introducing the least risk to your organization. Areas to be examined include why automation, visibility and context should be the indivisible, foundational components of any security policy management solution, which processes in security policy management are ripe for automation and where human intervention is still valuable. We’ll also explore how to educate security stakeholders in your organization on what’s needed to make automation initiatives a success.

Join ExtraHop and (ISC)2 on August 2, 2018 at 1:00PM Eastern as we discuss proactive measures that can work for an organization, what activities to look for and how machine learning can help speed up these efforts.
