Flow Automation Highlights
Identifying Unauthorized Login Attempts: Using IPinfo, the system detects unauthorized login attempts to WordPress from unknown IP addresses. This replaces the manual monitoring and analyzing login attempts, ensuring quicker identification and reducing the risk of missing a potential security breach.
User Verification via Google Workspace: The system automatically verifies if the user is legitimate by cross-referencing with Google Workspace. This eliminates the need for manual user verification, providing a more efficient and accurate validation process and thus speeding up incident response time.
Incident Management with Airtable: Automated creation and updating of incident records in Airtable streamlines the incident management process. This reduces the manual effort required to document and track incidents, ensuring consistent and accurate records while freeing up valuable time for security teams.
Notification and Communication through Slack: Automated notifications and updates are sent via Slack, ensuring that relevant team members are promptly informed about the incident and any required actions. This replaces the slower, manual method of emailing or messaging team members individually, enhancing the speed and effectiveness of the communication process.
Orchestration Toolbox
WordPress: In this use case, WordPress is the platform being monitored for unauthorized admin login attempts. Its role is to serve as the source of the login data that triggers the security automation process.
IPinfo: IPinfo gathers detailed information about the IP addresses of those attempting to access the WordPress admin area. It helps identify whether an IP address is suspicious or known, quickly assessing potential security threats.
Google Workspace: Google Workspace verifies the legitimacy of a user's attempt to log in. It cross-references the login attempt with existing user data, ensuring that only authorized users can proceed, enhancing security.
Airtable: In this use case, Airtable functions as the incident management system. It automatically logs incidents, updates records, and tracks the status of each security event, providing a structured and accessible way to manage security incidents.
Slack: Slack is employed for real-time notifications and communication. It ensures the security team is promptly informed about unauthorized login attempts and any subsequent actions required, facilitating rapid response and coordination.
