The solution provides value to organizations of all sizes and security maturity with deep security insights and contextualized threat data across multi-cloud and hybrid environments. The solution will reduce the time to detect and respond to threats, and will be available in two packages depending on the organization’s security operations maturity. For companies that don’t have an internal or outsourced Security Operations Center (SOC), the offering will provide security monitoring, visibility and alerting. For organizations modernizing their SOC, the offering will in addition provide cross-source threat correlation with machine learning detection, automation and orchestration.
