Written by Living Security Team | May 16, 2024

Empower Security Teams with HRM Orchestration

As a global leader in Human Risk Management (HRM), we proudly announce the broadening of our Unify HRM platform with orchestrated response capabilities. This new feature establishes a proactive security loop and lets security teams automatically trigger targeted interventions based on changes in human-related risk. 

The new workflow automation and orchestration capabilities in the Unify HRM platform empower security teams to respond proactively to evolve human risks at the enterprise scale. The platform uses data from your existing IT security tools for a holistic view of the cyber risks you and your workforce face, focusing on protecting your riskiest employees through personalized training. 

Establish a Proactive Security Loop

Our Unify HRM platform is a proactive way to help you use the most valuable stride that addresses security challenges while exercising an adaptive human security approach. Here is how you can coordinate your human risk management with our Unify HRM platform:

Identity Human Risk

Anticipate internal risk by assimilating data from your existing security tools to identify vigilant and vulnerable employees from security risks that include data loss, identity threats, malware, phishing, and social engineering.

Protect Against Cyber Threats

Educate your employees against cyberattacks through training and new policies using nudges to improve behavior change with step-by-step guidance.

Report on Risk Trends

Empower all your employees with actionable scorecards that advocate a culture of security vigilance that boosts their confidence and improves their security behaviors. 

HRM Orchestration Starts with Unify Identify

Unify's response orchestration functionality leverages the insights generated by Unify Identify, pinpointing individuals or groups exhibiting high-risk behaviors such as falling for phishing attempts, exhibiting unsafe browsing habits, or struggling to comply with data-loss prevention protocols. When such shifts in risk are detected, Unify can now automatically launch predefined workflows to intervene and mitigate potential threats. 

Unify Identity lets you make informed decisions with deep insights instead of struggling with reports from different tools. It is all part of maximizing your effectiveness against security threats. Through Unify HRM, human risk managers can utilize our platform’s response orchestration capabilities to initiate simple, targeted training to specific end users by automatically engaging with the employees directly with security tips or enrolling them in ongoing training centered around an organizational risk focus. 

Automatically Update Policies Across Your IT and Security Stack

Unify’s response orchestration capabilities permit the creation of workflows that can automatically update policy in other solutions within the security stack. Here is an example: our platform can update the identity policy within SailPoint IdentityIQ, which can automatically restrict access or enforce a stricter access policy. 

Ashley Rose, CEO of Living Security, points out that employee behavior is often the most critical part involving cyberattacks. “With automated response workflows in Unify, we're taking Human Risk Management to the next level, enabling security teams to counter emerging threats in real time. This proactive approach significantly reduces the time and resources needed to address human-related vulnerabilities and bolsters the overall security posture of an organization.” 

Key Benefits of Unify HRM Orchestration

Check out the key benefits of Unify's new orchestrated response features: 

  • Reduced Response Time: Automated workflows eliminate the need for manual intervention and allow immediate action against risks. 
  • Increased Effectiveness: Targeted interventions handle specific risk indicators with increased recency and relevance to those indicators.
