Demisto Applies Machine Learning Algorithms to IT Security Operations

Most security professionals spend a lot more time looking for the source of problem than they do fixing it. That can be especially vexing when they know there's a cyberattack in progress. To cut down on that time, Demisto this week added a Demisto Insights module to a Demisto Enterprise security operations platform that provides access to machine learning algorithms that can now suggest the best method available for resolving a security issue. Rishi Bhargava, vice president of marketing for Demisto, says the two biggest security issues IT organizations face when it comes to personnel are a shortage of staff and the amount of time it takes for anyone to gain a relevant amount of IT security expertise. "They can use Demisto Insights to set up playbooks for dealing with certain types of threats," says Bhargava.
