APIs and automation fix what security-team hands can’t reach
Toughening up cybersecurity sounds like a great idea. But what if adding alerts, warning signals, intel feeds, etc., results in a paranoid Mount Everest of protections? What security team has the hands to manage it?
“You need all these different check boxes — and more than check boxes. But, frankly, there are just not the people and the hours and the days to do it all,” said Daniel Bernard (pictured, left), vice president of business development at Sentinel Labs Inc. (SentinelOne).
Data overload is the bane of security today, according to Bernard. Of course, more is more in theory, but realistically, what do people do with all the data? In this, as in so much else in complex contemporary information technology, the only answer is to machete the tasks away with automation. “You need something that’s going to be autonomous and work online and offline but also bring in this level of automation to connect all these different pieces of a security ecosystem together […],” Bernard said.
Bernard and Bassil Habib (pictured, right), director of IT, infrastructure services, at Tri City Foods Inc. (Burger King), spoke with Lisa Martin (@LuccaZara) and Peter Burris (@plburris), co-hosts of theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media’s mobile livestreaming studio, at the Fortinet Accelerate event in Las Vegas, Nevada. They discussed how integrating and automating simplifies security. (* Disclosure below.)
APIs pull security scramble together
SentinelOne partners with Fortinet Inc., whose security fabric stitches in some of the SentinelOne’s security products. The huge range of application program interfaces in SentinelOne’s technology portfolio makes it pretty easy to get along with, according to Bernard.
“We have over 250 APIs, the most of any endpoint solution out there on the market. So the things we can enable within Fortinet’s broad stack is really very powerful,” Bernard stated.
A dual SentinelOne and Fortinet solution helped reign in the security of Tri City’s 500-location operation. “Nobody knows about all of the technology that goes in on the backend in order to support that environment,” Habib said.
Credit card transactions present particularly touchy security issues. The software as a service offerings bring everything under central control, according to Habib. “I only have one engineer basically looking after the solution,” he concluded.
