Field Resources & Guarding Relationships: Optimizing Security

Security is a crucial aspect of any organization, and the effectiveness of security teams directly impacts the safety and well-being of employees and the protection of assets. In today’s business landscape, security teams are frequently asked to operate with limited resources while facing ever-evolving security threats.

ML ultimately should aim to remove the need for humans to do repetitive, low-value decision-making activities, like triaging false positives or system/device health ticketing.
