Further Infrastructure Engineer Perspectives

Life can change significantly for infrastructure personnel, including network and security engineers, as well as platform engineers, when adopting OpenSecOps Foundation and OpenSecOps SOAR. Here's how their roles are impacted:

  1. Streamlined Infrastructure Management: With OpenSecOps Foundation, infrastructure personnel no longer need to manually configure and manage every aspect of the AWS infrastructure. The turn-key solution automates the setup process according to industry best practices, reducing the burden on these personnel. They can focus more on strategic initiatives rather than spending time reinventing the wheel or dealing with repetitive tasks.

  2. Privilege Escalation Protection: Privilege escalation protection is a crucial security feature provided by OpenSecOps Foundation that prevents unauthorised access or misuse of elevated permissions within the system. Infrastructure personnel play a key role in setting up appropriate least-privilege roles and boundaries for different user groups or teams using declarative methods facilitated by OpenSecOps Foundation.

  3. Focus on Advanced Security Measures: With automated incident handling capabilities offered by OpenSecOps SOAR, security engineers can concentrate on more complex incidents that require human analysis and decision-making instead of being overwhelmed with routine incidents or control failures. They can proactively identify potential vulnerabilities or emerging threats within the organisation's AWS environment and implement advanced security measures accordingly.

  4. Collaboration with Application Teams: Infrastructure personnel collaborate closely with application teams to provide guidance and support related to architectural best practices within the framework established by OpenSecOps Foundation. By working together, they ensure that applications are deployed securely while adhering to organisational policies.
    ​
  5. Continuous Improvement: As part of their responsibilities in maintaining a secure infrastructure, network and security engineers can continuously fine-tune security controls, review access policies, and refine configurations based on insights provided by OpenSecOps SOAR's AI-driven analysis. This allows them to stay proactive in addressing potential risks or vulnerabilities.

OpenSecOps Foundation simplifies the process by providing predefined least-privilege roles with boundary permissions for different types of builders. Infrastructure personnel play a crucial role in setting up these permissions and guiding application teams to ensure secure access management practices are followed.

Overall, life changes for infrastructure personnel with OpenSecOps Foundation and OpenSecOps SOAR as they transition from manual infrastructure management to a more strategic role focused on architectural guidance, advanced security measures, collaboration with application teams, continuous improvement efforts while leveraging automation capabilities offered by these solutions.
