Security Automation
Reduce manual security work through safe, controlled automation — without introducing uncontrolled change.
Automation Advisory
Identify repetitive security processes suitable for safe, controlled automation.
SOAR-lite Automation
Automate alert enrichment and triage without SOC-level complexity or tooling overhead.
Configuration Drift Detection
Detect security drift early — before it becomes operational risk or audit exposure.
How Automation Is Safely Implemented at NexaSec
Automation is introduced deliberately, with visibility, approval, and reversibility as core design principles.
1. Advisory First
Automation candidates are identified and risk-assessed before any technical implementation.
2. Read-Only & Dry Runs
Automation is validated in read-only or dry-run mode to confirm correctness without impacting production systems.
3. Human-in-the-Loop Approval
Any automation capable of making changes requires explicit approval and full traceability.
4. Logging & Rollback
Automated actions are logged, auditable, and designed with rollback in mind.
Typical Automation Use Cases
Automation is applied where it reduces risk, improves consistency, and removes repetitive manual effort.
- • Detecting firewall rule drift and unauthorised configuration changes
- • Validating VPN and remote access accounts against defined policies
- • Enriching security alerts with contextual data before review
- • Generating recurring security and compliance reports automatically
