Solution Advantages
Integration with Native and Third-party Products
GenAI SecOps Assistant
Sangfor Security GPT is a generative AI SecOps assistant built using Sangfor’s proprietary large language model (LLM). It generates security posture summaries and reports, reconstructs attack processes, and explains analysis results. Security GPT improves the detection of threats such as phishing, web attacks, and C2, with an average false positive rate of less than 3%.
Intelligent Investigation
The solution provides complete visibility into each security incident by correlating alerts and logs from various security components. This level of visibility allows security teams to easily determine the root cause and the details of any compromise.
Automatic Response
Built-in predefined and customizable response policies enable automatic response to most security incidents. For incidents not covered by response policies, security teams only need to handle them once manually and create an automatic response policy for future cases.
Worry-Free Services
The solution is available with Sangfor Athena Managed Detection and Response (MDR) and Managed Threat Response (MTR) services that cover security incident investigation, threat identification and analysis, and remediation to recover business operations.
Flexible Delivery Models
Choose from Self-Managed, Fully-Managed, or Co-Managed operations to best fit your business requirements.
- Self-operated SecOps: Provides complete control and flexibility, ideal for organizations with the resources and expertise to manage their own security operations.
- Co-managed SecOps: Combines Sangfor’s protection of critical assets with the customer's management of other aspects of security. Ideal for organizations that want to maintain some control while benefiting from expert oversight for key areas.
- Fully-managed SecOps: Delivers comprehensive, expert-managed security operations, ideal for SMEs without the internal resources or expertise to handle security on their own.
