Creating Custom Security Automation Tools with Python
The ability to detect, respond to, and mitigate attacks quickly is important in today’s rapidly changing cybersecurity landscape. With the increasing volume and complexity of cyber-attacks, manual security approaches are no longer sufficient to keep up with the changing threat landscape. As a result, organizations are prioritizing automation as an important part of their cybersecurity strategy.
This chapter, a continuation of the previous one, focuses on the craft of creating custom security automation tools with Python. Each stage of the development process is thoroughly covered, from conceptualizing the design to integrating external data sources and APIs, as well as expanding capabilities with Python libraries and frameworks.
In this chapter, we’re going to cover the following main topics:
- Designing and developing tailored security automation tools
- Integrating external data sources and APIs for...
