What this card says
What is SOAR?
SOAR = Security Orchestration, Automation and Response. It runs saved step plans, called playbooks, across your security tools.
Why use it
Analysts repeat the same steps for each alert. Automating the safe repeats makes response faster and frees people for real thinking.
Safety rule
Keep a human in the loop (an approval step) before big actions like isolating a host. Log every automatic action so you can undo it.
| SIEM | SOAR |

| Collects logs, alerts | Takes action |
| Tells you | Does the steps |
