Security automation and enrichment workflows

Automates the repetitive analyst work - enrichment, correlation, case creation - while keeping humans in control of anything destructive.

Overview

A large share of security analysis is mechanical: look up an address, check a hash, retrieve the asset record, establish whether this has been seen before. Automating that work is what allows a small team to give real attention to the alerts that warrant it.

Vanguard automates enrichment and case creation. By the time an analyst opens an alert, the reputation lookups are done, related events are attached, the affected asset is identified and a case exists.

Automated containment is deliberately conservative. Response playbooks that change the state of your network require human approval until there is sustained evidence that the underlying detection is precise. An automated block that takes a business offline costs more than the incident it prevented.

What this identifies

  • Alert patterns that correlate into a single larger incident
  • Repeat activity from previously seen infrastructure
  • Alert volumes that indicate an active campaign rather than background noise

Delivery status: In deployment - actively being rolled out and available on request, with per-environment tuning.

Capabilities

What security automation does

  • Automatic enrichment

    Reputation, intelligence and asset context attached to alerts before an analyst sees them.

  • Case creation

    Qualifying alerts become tracked cases automatically, so nothing is lost between shifts.

  • Notification routing

    Severity-based routing to the right contact through the agreed channel.

  • Approval-gated response

    Containment playbooks are prepared and staged, then executed on human authorisation.

Under the hood

The engineering underneath

How this capability is actually engineered and operated. The specific detection tooling behind the security operations centre is shared with customers under agreement rather than published, for the same reason you would not publish yours.

  • Workflow automation handles enrichment and case creation; containment playbooks remain approval-gated.
  • Enrichment sources include the threat intelligence platform and reputation services.
  • Every automated action is logged to the case record with its trigger and outcome.

The full platform architecture is documented on the architecture page.
