Security Automation Architect's Guide Now Available
|
Security automation enables network and security systems to provide dynamic, responsive protection with automated handling of routine security tasks, allowing administrators to focus on critical areas such as threat analysis and policy development. This streamlined approach to enterprise security improves efficiency and reduces cost, and enhances an organization's ability to monitor and respond to increasing and targeted network attacks.
This Architect's Guide shows enterprise architects how they can design and deploy successful automated security solutions based on the open Trusted Network Connect (TNC) architecture and standards along with interoperable compliance establishment through Security Content Automation Protocol (SCAP).
