2 Your operators are getting overloaded Integrating systems drains resources Security operators are often expected to switch between two, three or more security applications built by multiple vendors. The extra workload can hinder effectiveness, cause unnecessary stress, and lead to errors. In some cases, it can mean dealing with more than half a dozen monitoring and management applications. When you introduce upkeep and upgrades into the equation, it's easy to see how security and IT teams can become swamped and less effective. Rather than use multiple user interfaces for your security applications, you can move to a 'single pane of glass'. It allows you to configure and monitor everything in one place. It offers familiarity across different types of tasks, and gives operators the tools to do their job more effectively. For any operator, learning and mastering various tasks in various systems monopolizes time that could be better spent elsewhere. Simple activities often involve jumping in and out of different systems to resolve an incident. It could mean important information gets missed and the operator can't respond effectively. A unified system gives time back to the operator to perform core security tasks within a single, familiar, intuitive interface. For security administrators, it does away with the need for added burdens such as looking after extra support and maintenance agreements, compatibility, upgrades, and training for multiple systems.
