Still, his experience shows that data coming in from multiple missions, potentially with various classifications, can be challenging.   Combine that with varying kinds of reporting requirements, and you get a process that can overwhelm even the most experienced individuals. His recommendation is to consider a platform approach that can help normalize data, allowing it to be used in a meaningful way.   Matt Goodrich from Diligent expands on some of the benefits of automation. For example, you may have a shortage of talent that can be compensated for with an automated platform. Automation reduces human error and can speed up the time to report.   Goodrich makes a great point about summarizing information. The goal of reviewing logs for anomalies is not to create a report, but to increase speed to action.      Rather than arbitrarily selecting an automated system, Goodrich suggests looking for tools that can integrate with existing systems and align with compliance frameworks, such as FedRAMP and NIST CSF.     ","author_name":"Feds At The Edge by FedInsider","author_url":"http:\/\/fedinsider.libsyn.com\/website","html":"
