It's called co-pilot. Not THE pilot. Automation is not there to steal jobs. As Sean Tickle puts it: “It is about empowering our analysts. It is not about replacing them… It’s your friend that helps you do the grunt work.” What are your thoughts? Keep your eyes posted for the full session. 👀

Even though we’re a remote-first business, it’s always a pleasure to come together for team days at our Manchester HQ! These days are great for collaboration, brainstorming, and team building, which isn't always the same over video calls. Plus, it’s a great chance to share some laughs and enjoy each other's company in person. We’re also pleased to welcome CloudGuard’s newest team member, Eimear! Until the next one! ✌️

Time is everything when there’s an active threat in your organisation. Every minute counts as the longer it’s left unchecked, the more damage it can cause. The process of manually handling a threat typically takes a human SOC Analyst hours of intensive work. GuardianAI follows a four-step process to handle any threats across your organisation in minutes. 🔍 Phase 0 – Detect 💡 Phase 1 – Enrich 🔎 Phase 2 – Investigate 🛠️ Phase 3 – Remediate If an alert falls outside of our predefined actions, it is automatically triaged to our Managed SOC team to provide that extra layer of human analysis and critical thinking.
