Today, security teams find themselves under immense pressure due to ongoing efforts by organizations to embrace digital transformation. This transformation expands the cyber-attack surface that these teams are responsible for safeguarding. The environments they work in have become incredibly complex and interconnected, resulting in a constant stream of alerts, the need for tedious tuning, and repetitive manual tasks. To make matters even more challenging, cybercriminals are evolving their tactics, introducing new, more complex attacks such as Ransomware-as-a-Service operations, all designed to avoid detection. As a result, businesses across various industries are feeling the impact of these challenges, with a staggering 84% of enterprises experiencing one or more breaches in the past year.

In today's digital age, cybersecurity is paramount for businesses of all sizes. With the ever-evolving landscape of cyber threats, safeguarding organizations' sensitive data and ensuring the continuous operation of online services/products is a top priority.
